Players can dual-wield some weapons, renouncing the use of grenades and melee attacks in favor of the combined firepower of two weapons. Many weapons available in previous installments of the series return with minor cosmetic alterations and power. Unlike previous installments, the player's secondary weapon is visible on their player model, holstered or slung over the back of the player.
