The Dead Space remake is packed with dreaded corridors and threats lurking in every corner of USG Ishimura. Players have a unique arsenal of weapons to dispel various creatures in the game.

After uttering a few words, she dies and eventually loses her grip on the Pulse Rifle. Players can honor her sacrifice and use the rifle to massacre necromorphs.

The Pulse Rifle can be found immediately after obtaining the Kinesis module in the second Chapter. The module enables Issac to move objects and pull certain inaccessible items towards him. You will come across some crates in the same room to the right of the area where you picked up the Kinesis module. Move them using Kinesis, and a small path will lead you to a room.

You can pick up the Pulse Rifle after interacting with the dying security officer. The gun is a triple-barreled rifle capable of crowd control and features a secondary fire mode that comes in the form of a proximity mine. Use it to set traps for the necromorphs. Stepping on the mine can devastate the necromorph with a powerful blast.

The Pulse Rifle can be fully decked out with three upgrade parts found while exploring throughout the course of the game. You will have to use nodes to upgrade the gun's damage, capacity, and reload time.

The first upgrade component, the Kinetic Autoloader, can be purchased from the in-game store after Chapter 3. This is an expensive transaction that will
