The Punisher is the second handgun you can acquire in Resident Evil 4 remake, and players are wondering if it’s worth the price. Unlike most of the weapons in the game, you’ll have to pay for the Punisher in Spinel, which is harder to come by than Peseta. We’ll discuss whether the Punisher is worth it in RE4 Remake or if you should save your Spinel for another trade.
Should I buy the Punisher in Resident Evil 4 remake?
The Punisher isn’t worth it in Resident Evil 4 remake unless you plan on making use of its exclusive upgrade, which lets it penetrate through five targets. It’s the weakest handgun in the game, and despite having decent ammo capacity, reload speed, rate of fire, and precision, any other handgun is a better choice.
However, if you quickly level the Punisher (or use an exclusive upgrade ticket), its ability to penetrate multiple targets can make it very lethal in the right hands. To use it correctly, you’ll need to be prepared to maneuver to line up shots on multiple enemies constantly. Otherwise, its upgrade goes to waste.

If you decide to spend the five Spinel on the Punisher in RE4 remake, you might want to think about purchasing the Laser Sight for ten more Spinel. When attached to the Punisher, it’ll increase the gun’s precision rating, which is a big plus if you decide to make it your primary pistol.
