Resident Evil 5 · Shotgun
Hydra
The Hydra becomes available after fully upgrading the Ithaca M37 and has upgrades for firepower, reload speed, capacity, and attack range.
How it works
The reference lists the Hydra in the Buy Menu after the Ithaca M37 is fully upgraded. Its table has firepower, reload-speed, and capacity upgrades, as well as two attack-range upgrades. The item reference describes it as an extended-range shotgun and says it is better than the Jail Breaker. A separate supplied guide disputes the meaning of the range stat, so that disputed interpretation is omitted.
When it helps
If pursuing the Hydra, the supplied item reference names full Ithaca M37 upgrades as its unlock condition.
