Explore the Ranged & Melee Weapons guide for RimWorld's Anomaly DLC. Learn about new weapons, their stats, and how to acquire them to survive the horrors.

The Anomaly DLC for RimWorld introduces a variety of new ranged and melee weapons, adding new combat options and threats to your colony. These weapons are often tied to the new research tree, psychic rituals, and the mysterious entities that inhabit the world.

• Void Monolith — A central structure that, when activated, allows for the appearance of new entities and unlocks access to the Anomaly research tree.
• Harbinger Tree — A dangerous plant that feeds on corpses and meat, potentially growing into a threat itself.
• Fleshbeast — A grotesque creature made of cancerous flesh, capable of splitting into smaller versions.
• Sightstealer — An emaciated humanoid that uses psychic influence to turn invisible, attacking with sharp bioferrite claws.
• Shambler — Reanimated corpses driven by microscopic archites, slow but relentless attackers.
• Ghoul — Humans augmented with archotech shards and twisted by dark psychic influences into aggressive beings.
• Gorehulk — A massive, distorted creature that can launch sharp keratin spines as a ranged attack.
• Death Pall — A cloud of microscopic archites that reanimates dead flesh upon contact.

These new additions bring unique challenges and require players to adapt their combat strategies. Understanding the nature and abilities of these new threats and the weapons they might wield is crucial for survival.
