EM-83 Grenade Launcher is a weapon in System Shock (Remake). It is new to the remake and is not featured in the original game.
Overview[]
The EM-83 Grenade Launcher can be found on Level 4-Storage, in Storage 1. It uses Frag, EMP, and Gas grenades for ammunition, making it a powerful weapon versus all enemy types.
Combat analysis[]
It is an obvious upgrade to throwing grenades by hand, since it launches them farther away and with impact detonation, removing timing necessity and greatly increasing accuracy. However, that comes with a considerable cost of inventory space, reducing room for dermal patches, batteries, ammo or other weapons.
Against slower targets, the grenade launcher may not make much difference, but with nimble enemies, when timing the detonation can prove challenging, it can really shine, for example, against Cyborg Diego or gorilla tigers.
One upgrade mod kit is available for the grenade launcher on Level 5-Flight Deck. The mod further increases projectile velocity, aiding in accuracy.
