The Sentinel Nine is a DLC weapon that became available even before the release of the game, providing players with an alternate starting weapon.
This weapon is similar to the SG-09 R but features higher stats that make it easier to progress earlier throughout the game.
It offers great balance and is best used often when it comes to staggering and taking out weaker enemies to conserve a lot of ammunition.

Sentinel Nine Exclusive Upgrade
The Sentinel Nine and the SG-09 R share the same upgrade, which provides them with a huge increase in critical rate.
This makes it easier to stagger enemies when high damage is dealt to their limbs and it also gives the possibility of being able to kill certain enemies in one hit.
Sometimes you will notice that a single headshot or shot to a limb with the Sentinel Nine will be able to dismember an enemy when this exclusive upgrade is purchased.
Sentinel Nine Attachments
The Sentinel Nine can be equipped with the Laser Sight attachment, providing it with more precision and making it easier to aim by changing the crosshair to a laser sight.
How To Get Sentinel Nine?
You can get the Sentinel Nine by purchasing the Resident Evil 4 Deluxe Weapon: ‘Sentinel Nine’ DLC or the Resident Evil 4 Deluxe Edition.
Once this weapon has been purchased, you can take it from your Typewriter Storage once you have started or loaded a game.
Is Sentinel Nine worth it?
This handgun is worth it since it has better stats than Leon’s standard handgun and it can later be used as an endgame weapon.
The fact that it can have the Laser Sight attachment equipped makes it great for those who want to get better aim at enemies and once fully upgraded, it deals a lot of damage.
While it does not compare to the other handguns in damage, its rate of fire, magazine capacity, and critical rate are something that gives it better performance.
Verdict
The Sentinel Nine may be only slightly different from the SG-09 R, every drop counts in the end, and with the high stats it has, it is a top choice by players.
Since most of its shots will be able to deal with critical hits, you can easily take out the other enemies in the game or stagger them for melee attacks.
Once this weapon has been purchased, it will be available in every game whether it’s new or a previous save through the Typewriter Storage.
