The Widowmaker is a promotional primary weapon for the Engineer. It is a futuristic tan Shotgun styled after the Widowmaker TX, a weapon available in Deus Ex: Human Revolution.
This weapon uses the Engineer's metal as its source of ammunition; each shot fired will consume 60 metal, making for a maximum of 3 shots able to be fired without additional metal. Each point of damage done to an enemy player or building with the Widowmaker is returned to the Engineer as metal. Additionally, the weapon has no requirement to reload, as the ammo draws straight from the Engineer's metal supply, but to keep firing, the Engineer must resupply using a Dispenser, Payload cart, Ammo crate, Resupply locker, dropped weapons or the remains of destroyed buildings.
It is awarded in Genuine quality to players who pre-purchase Deus Ex: Human Revolution on Steam before August 26, 2011.
