Summary[]
The Katana is a secondary melee weapon, unlocked at Prestige 3, Level 1. Upon equipping, the Katana will become present at the hip of the user. Upon attacking, the Katana is unsheathed for a quick slash in an arc, dealing damage to a single enemy in a wide area. The Katana can be swung more rapidly than attacking with a knife would.
Trivia[]
- Interestingly, the first person player model shows the katana being held in a reverse, or "Zatoichi" grip, but swinging it is done with a normal forward grip, proceeding to sheath back into the reverse grip.
