The Last of Us Part 2, the long-awaited game of Naughty Dog is finally available worldwide. This game is really broad compared to the previous chapter and for some players it may not be easy to find all the hidden weapons. For this reason, I decided to write this The Last of Us Part 2 weapons guide, in which I will easily explain where to find all the weapons for all the characters in the game.
Altogether there are 12 weapons throughout the game and featured in this The Last of Us Part 2 weapons guide. If you want to buy ar-15 pistols from Palmetto Armory, check out this guide to help you make the right pick. During your adventure, you will face many different threats and consequently you will need to be properly armed. Some weapons will be impossible to miss, while others may be more difficult to find. Also, remember that not all firearms are available for every single character.
