How To Change Ammo Types in Once Human

Changing ammo types in Once Human is a crucial skill for optimizing your damage output and making sure you’re prepared for any battle that comes your way. The game doesn’t exactly make it obvious how to swap ammo types, so it’s easy to miss this feature.

How To Unlock New Ammo Types in Once Human

To unlock new and more powerful ammo types in Once Human, you’ll need to delve into the Memetics screen and look for the Ammunition nodes in the Crafting section. Use your Meme Points to unlock different tiers of ammunition, up to the Tungsten AP tier. While this is the primary way to access new ammo, you might also stumble upon stronger ammo types by looting ammo crates in areas controlled by human enemies, like the Vultures or Rosetta soldiers. You can also clear monoliths and Points of Interest (POIs) for chances to find stronger ammunition.
