Commonly used to spam lower sections of a map in [[Multiplayer|multiplayer]] [[Deathmatch|deathmatch]], the '''Grenade Launcher''' shoots... you guessed it - a grenade in an arc, it explodes either after 2.5 seconds of bouncing or lying around, or instantly if coming in contact with a player or [[Monsters|monster]] while airborne. The explosion gives off quite a damaging blast radius.

The Grenade Launcher, while short-ranged and with a lack of firing rate delivers plenty of damage to the target/s when used properly. It is simple: the Grenade Launcher launches short-ranged yet powerful grenades. They will explode on impact when they hit an enemy, but if they hit a surface, then they will bounce off of different surfaces for a bit before standing still on a surface and then exploding. Good gun.
