Mortal Shell 2 includes a Makeshift Projectile that players discover while exploring the game's overworld areas. Once obtained, the item functions as a launcher for explosives, though the game doesn't explicitly communicate where or when to deploy it effectively. This mirrors a broader design philosophy in the sequel, where certain items like the Crypt Key unlock specific doors without clear direction from the interface - leaving players to experiment and discover their purpose through exploration.
The weapon exemplifies Mortal Shell 2's approach to item use: discovery-driven rather than guided. Players picking up the Makeshift Projectile won't find obvious prompts or UI hints about its application, making methodical exploration essential to understanding what the game offers.
- The Makeshift Projectile is found during overworld exploration and launches explosives, but the game provides minimal instruction on where to use it.
- Mortal Shell 2 withholds information on several items and their purposes, encouraging players to experiment rather than tutorializing their function.
