The madness of Fallout 4 is undoubtedly one of its biggest appeals. As you traverse a post-apocalyptic wasteland in search of your child, sometimes it's good to let off some steam, courtesy of some of the game's best weapons.
And now that the Fallout 4 next-gen patch is live, more people than ever are jumping into the game. Thankfully, the action RPG is crammed with exciting guns, explosives, traps, lasers and unusual weapons, all designed to give you an upper hand against the remnants of Boston. The only hard part is deciding which ones to use.
To try and make things easier, we've rounded up every weapon Fallout 4 has to offer across its base game, Creation Club and all of the DLC that was released post-launch.
Considering there are well over 100 weapons, we've also broken down some personal picks that we think are worth trying out.
There are a bunch of weapons in Fallout 4, with plenty of variety to choose from. When it comes down to dealing the most damage though, you can't go wrong with the Nuka-nuke Launcher. This unique Fat Man nuclear catapult fires off specialised Nuka-Nuke explosive ammunition that can do over 3,000 damage points per hit. The weapon can be obtained during the Cappy in a Haystack side quest as part of the Nuka-World DLC.
Laser Pistols are cool and Old Faithful is one of the best, offering double damage when fired at an enemy with full health. This makes it perfect for playing stealthy. It can then be improved by being converted to a sniper rifle. Pick up the weapon via Arturo in Damon City.
One of the best Fallout 4 weapons for pure fun is the Furious Power Fist, a giant metal arm that lets you swing at enemies like the Hulkbuster. It has a damage effect of 57 but increases with every hit, making it perfect for one-on-one melee combat. Head to Swan's Pond in Boston Common where a super mutant behemoth called Swan can be found stalking the area. Defeat the boss and grab the Furious Power Fist from its body to start unleashing fists of fury.
