Your weapons aren’t complete until you’ve fully kitted them out with unique Gun Parts. In Resident Evil Village, every gun has several additional parts you can attach to improve handling, damage, or give it some special function. Your guns look different with every additional part, and some of them change pretty drastically — and even better, most of them are free. The bad part? They’re also hidden. You’ll have to hunt them down, and there are not clues to point you in the right direction.
Until now. We’ve put together a complete list of all the missable Weapon Parts in RE8. This is where you can find parts for all the standard weapons — we’re limiting the list just to weapons you can acquire in a normal playthrough of the game. Lots more weapons (and weapon parts) become available in NG+, but you won’t be able to find them anywhere in-game. They’re all sold by the Duke, so save your pennies when you’re prepared for another round in the Village.
