Since Godzilla has been a hot topic lately (no, Godzilla is always in), it’s not a reach for games to reference the rad lizard. Kill It With Fire 2 throws its own hat in with Laser Breath, and here’s how you can unlock it.
You unlock the Laser Breath equipment by completing the ‘Meltdown’ objective in the second dimension in Kill It With Fire 2. The quest is easy enough: Toss some radioactive waste into a nuclear reactor and win a prize! That prize being turning spiders to ash with a blue beam that fires from your mouth. It’s totally worth the radiation poisoning.
How to unlock Laser Breath in Kill It With Fire 2
To unlock Laser Breath, you need to have already progressed to the dimension Downtown Arachnitopia in Kill It With Fire 2. But there’s a bit of a catch. You’ll need to drop a drawbridge to the island with the nuclear reactor, but doing so takes 20 Compound X. At this point in the game, you shouldn’t have that much. You may need to return once you have enough.
Once you gathered 20 Compound X, drop the bridge and make your way to the nuclear reactor. It’s hard to miss; look for the massive nuclear cooling tower between some buildings.
It’s a bit dirty, don’t you think? You should wash it down when you get the chance. Doing so might allow you to unlock the Minigun if you haven’t already.
Activating the reactor adds the Meltdown objective to your clipboard. To complete the objective, you need to find and toss eight barrels of radioactive waste into the reactor. Look for the barrels below the tower and all around the buildings on the island. They aren’t on any of the other islands in the level.
After you complete the objective, walk up to the reactor. If everything is ready, it should show you the activation button (the E key on PC) followed by ‘???’. Activate it, and get ready.
Laser Breath is unlocked, allowing you to fulfill your dreams of being a giant, radioactive death lizard. It comes with 200 ammo and is difficult to control. But that’s kind of the point; Laser Breath is powerful, able to kill spiders and knock down buildings.
Have you ever imagined what happens when Godzilla sneezes? I do, and it keeps me up at night.
