Increase your damage radius and cover the walls in blood as you descend into hell with the Jackhammer Shotgun in hand. Coming as part of ULTRAKILL’s Full Arsenal update on April 15, the Jackhammer has a ridiculously explosive range that will blast V2s out of the water.
HOW TO GET THE ALT SHOTGUN | ULTRAKILL
The Jackhammer is the alternative to shotguns in ULTRAKILL. Like other alternative weapons, the Jackhammer can be found in a certain level. Each weapon type has its own unique alternative, which is usually hidden from the average player. The method to obtain the alternative shotgun is as painful as hell itself. The Jackhammer is by far the hardest weapon to obtain in ULTRAKILL and can make you furious. If you are up for the task, read on to find out how to obtain the Jackhammer in ULTRAKILL.
The Jackhammer is only found in Act III: Layer Seven. You must play through the entire game up to and including 7-2: Light up the Night. If you have already reached this point, simply load the level and enter it as normal. Unlike all other levels in ULTRAKILL before this one, the Light up the Night gameplay consists mainly of platforming with orbs. You will need to get used to using the Whiplash Arm (R) quickly.
At the beginning of 7-2 you have to jump from the blue orb to the green one and so on until you reach the first gate with the golden orb right in front of it. This is where the Sisyphean punishment begins. I didn’t want to count the number of tries it took me to complete this short platforming section, but you can imagine the pain I was in.
