Claire Redfield can find this item in the cabinet inside the S.T.A.R.S. room (Scenario A) or in the R.P.D. Main Hall (Scenario B).

The Grenade Launcher is Claire's most powerful weapon with the ability to use three types of grenade rounds which are:

  • Explosive Rounds
  • Flame Rounds

With the Explosives Rounds equipped, the short range munitions scatter and explode upon contact, damaging any enemies in range.

The Flame Rounds doesn't knock an enemy back, but instead leaves them burning dealing additional damage. It is quite effective against the Ivy enemies.

The Acid Rounds corrode any target who is hit, often killing normal enemies in one shot, particularly the Lickers. However it's also the rarest of the Grenade Rounds.

However this weapon has the versatility of using different special purpose grenades and is much more effective in crowd control.
