The Automatic Shotgun is a firearm in Dead Rising 4, returning from Dead Rising 3 with a slightly different name.

Locations

• Aliisa Couture
• Charms of Desire Panic Room
• Robsaka Digital
• Lootable Backpacks (Low to moderate chance)
• Occasionally dropped by Red-Loot Bag Fresh Zombies (Multiplayer only)
• Dropped from ZDC Crates (Moderate chance, multiplayer only)

Trivia

• The weapon itself was fast firing and overpowered in Dead Rising 3. In Dead Rising 4, the weapon itself has its fire rate slightly nerfed without sacrificing its base damage output for compensation, but still one-hit kills zombies, making short work of hordes or groups.
• The Automatic Shotgun is known for its ability to "juggle" zombie hordes and evolved zombies. This is due to its continuous succession of dismembering zombies, a high chance of knockdown, and substantial damage output, making it an ideal choice for accumulating Prestige Points.
• The evolved zombie can experience a "stunlock" effect when continuously fired upon at close range, rendering it unable to evade or retaliate. This results in the zombie being killed within 7-8 seconds, especially when Shooting Skills are upgraded to the maximum.
