The Hand Cannon is a weapon in Dead Rising 3.
This firearm is included in the Dead Rising 3: Chaos Rising DLC. It can be accessed through the main game by using the weapons locker. The incredible firepower of the Hand Cannon can take out Bikers in at least two hits.
The weapon itself is incredibly powerful, as its name suggests. A single shot can take down several zombies and even set them on fire. Its range remains excellent, even at medium ranges. This makes the Hand Cannon particularly effective against psychopaths. The only drawback to this powerful firearm is its rarity, as it is hard to find.
