The Swordfish is a weapon in Dead Rising 2 and Dead Rising 2: Off the Record. It is a taxidermized swordfish that is used for decoration purposes.

Its durability can be increased with the Domestic magazine.

Attacks

Main: Tap / to stab a zombie with the nose of the swordfish, knocking it over. Two attacks of this type are usually required to kill a zombie. Combo: Quickly tap / again to perform a follow-up stab with the swordfish, this time higher. Alternate: Hold / to impale a zombie on the swordfish's nose and then slam it into the ground. This attack kills zombies with one hit and awards the player 10 prestige points.

Trivia

• Like other weapons, when the swordfish is thrown, it will stick into a zombie and stay there until the zombie bleeds out and dies.
• Chuck throws the swordfish in an identical manner to how he throws a Spear.
• The swordfish's alternate attack is very similar to the attacks of the Lances the contestants use in the Master Shafter event in Terror Is Reality.
