Every character in Scarlet Nexus has an ultimate weapon that highlights their power. Here's how they stack up against each other.

The world of Scarlet Nexus is unrelenting and dangerous. The game's Others are herculean in both size and strength, but OSF soldiers are always equipped to deal with the threats. Aside from the Psycho-Kinetic superpowers, they also wield mighty weapons to help them fight the Others. One of the best things about the game is that the weapons are only bought or exchanged from the Merchant, instead of having to pick them up from the world. However, the materials necessary to get the ultimate weapons do need a bit of work to collect.

Each character in the player's party has an ultimate weapon that makes them as powerful as they can be. These weapons offer the highest damage and are set at the highest weapon level possible in the game. On top of that, their designs are prime and elegant. These are the best weapons in Scarlet Nexus for each character.
