Knife

A standard knife, you'll find it extremely early on in the game, before fighting your first enemy. It does very little damage but can be used to finish off weakened enemies without using up more ammo. It's also great for smashing open crates or Goats of Warding without using your gun. There's no way of upgrading it.

LEMI

The starting handgun and what will likely be your workhorse weapon for much of the game. You can't miss this one. A villager hands it to Ethan very early on in the game.

GM 79

You'll find this grenade launcher in the village after encountering a massive werewolf for the first time. Uniquely, there are no weapon parts to find and you can't upgrade or otherwise improve this gun at The Duke. From the moment you find it, it's as good as it's going to get.

M1911

The second main handgun in the game, the M1911 is a step up from the LEMI in every way except ammo capacity. You'll find it in a dial-locked compartment in the Village. Just look out the window for the code.

M1851 Wolfsbane

The Magnum or some variation of it is a staple in Resident Evil games. In Resident Evil Village, it takes the form of the Wolfsbane. Ammo is rare but it's easily the most powerful gun to add to your collection. You'll find it down near Moreau's Waterfront after opening a locked gate.
