The weapon fires an [[Compression blast|unreflectable]], [[Short Circuit|undestroyable]] [[Projectiles|projectile]] energy bolt that pierces targets in a straight line.

Each bolt is able to hurt an infinite amount of targets and deals 20 damage per tick.

Like the [[Cow Mangler 5000]], the Righteous Bison features a "Bison" bar in the [[Heads-up display|HUD]] which serves as an indication of its ammunition clip. After the bar is depleted, it can be recharged through a reloading process in which a piston in the back of the weapon is pumped. It does not incorporate the traditional ammo reserve used by other weapons.

— The Soldier on the space marines and futuristic robots
 ”

The Righteous Bison is a secondary weapon for the Soldier. It is a handheld retrofuturistic raygun.

The weapon fires an unreflectable, indestructible energy bolt projectile that pierces targets in a straight line. These energy bolts only do 20% damage to buildings, a feature shared across the game's other laser weapons. Each bolt is able to hit an infinite amount of targets and deals 20 damage per tick.

Like the Cow Mangler 5000, the Righteous Bison features a "Bison" bar in the HUD which serves as an indication of its ammo clip. After the bar is depleted, it can be recharged through a reloading process in which a piston in the back of the weapon is pumped. It does not incorporate the traditional ammo reserve used by other weapons.

Enemies killed by the Bison suffer a distinctive death by vaporization: they turn black, hover in mid-air while surrounded by team-colored particles, and then disappear into ashes while a loud, distinct vaporization sound plays. Like backstabs and headshots, there is a 25% chance of opponents performing a specific disintegration animation if killed in this way. This vaporization effect is shared among the energy weapons.

Weta Workshop held a panel at San Diego Comic-Con 2011 and handed out coupon codes to visitors that can be redeemed in Team Fortress 2 for a Genuine quality Righteous Bison.[1]
