The Psychosis Gun is a secret experimental weapon found in Perfect Dark. It carries 8 rounds in the magazine like the Tranquilizer (whose model and ammunition it shares), though it's impossible to have a full magazine under normal circumstances. It's the only weapon that is unaffected by the Unlimited Ammo cheats, the only weapon without a secondary function (other than the weapons from Goldeneye), and the only weapon unavailable in the Combat Simulator and the Firing Range (for obvious reasons).
Shooting an enemy with it causes them to essentially join your team, although they're very aggressive and, rather than follow you around, will generally seek out enemies to kill. This can be quite powerful when used on appropriate targets, which is presumably why the max number of rounds it will ever hold is 7, even when using the infinite ammo cheat.
In-Game Description
Edit
A chemical cocktail that warps the perceived reality of the target. Good becomes bad, bad becomes good; enemies and friends change places. Another one of the darker research projects from Trent Easton's Area 51.
Appearances
Edit
The Psychosis Gun only appears in the bonus mission Maian SOS, on the desk in the room connected to the room the player starts in. There are also 2 in the second lab where the Maian Ambassador is, and one more on the twin labs heading down towards the hangars.
Trivia
Edit
- This weapon has a buggy reload animation, due to the fact that this weapon is not supposed to have enough ammunition to be reloaded.
