Meta Info

Sprite Name:

shotlauncher

Big Shotgun is a gun that appears in Enter the Gungeon and Exit the Gungeon.

Behaviour

The Big Shotgun fires a shotgun spread of three large exploding projectiles that each burst into 6 smaller pieces of shrapnel on destruction.

• ^ETG Reloading the Big Shotgun near any type of Shotgun Kin or Shotgat will suck them into the gun, instantly killing them and restoring 1 ammo.

Synergies^ETG

• Big Shotgun Gun - If the player also has BSG, the Big Shotgun fires five projectiles instead of three.
  • If the player also has Backup Gun, the backwards shot will only fire three.
• Hidden Tech Big Shotgun - If the player has Table Tech Shotgun, Table Tech Shotgun shoots Big Shotgun bullets when Big Shotgun is held.

Notes

• ^ETG The maximum ammo of the Big Shotgun was increased from 50 to 70 in the Farewell to Arms update.
• Despite being a shotgun, the Big Shotgun is not in the SHOTGUN gun class.
  • As a consequence, the Big Shotgun is not affected by the Shotgun Affinity synergy.
• If the Big Shotgun sucked up more shotgun enemies than the current clip is missing, the rest of the enemies will be added to the ammo count but will not increase the clip size.
• Shotgun Kin are loaded into the Big Shotgun while reloading, meaning you cannot absorb a Shotgun Kin if you have run out of ammo for the gun.
• Enemies that can be loaded into the Big Shotgun are as follows;
  • Red Shotgun Kin
  • Blue Shotgun Kin
  • Veteran Shotgun Kin
  • Mutant Shotgun Kin
  • Executioner
  • Ashen Shotgun Kin
  • Shotgrub
  • Creech
  • Shotgat
• This weapon is likely a reference to the "Big Shotgun" weapon pickup featured in Metal Slug.
• The Big Shotgun Gun synergy is inherently a reference to the DOOM franchise, as the BSG itself is a reference to the BFG-9000 from the DOOM series.
• Reloading the Big Shotgun can "defuse" Red and Blue Shotgun Kin that are in the middle of their burst animation.
