The Brass Beast is a primary weapon for the Heavy and was released as part of the Hibernating Bear set. It appears as an antique machine gun made almost entirely of brass, and bears a resemblance to the original 1861 Gatling gun made by Richard J. Gatling.

Bugs

  • Because of the placement of the chain and ammo drum, the Brass Beast will clip through the Heavy's left hand and right arm when taunting.
  • Natascha related achievements can be unlocked using the Brass Beast.

Trivia

  • The first person view model of the Brass Beast, as well as that of the Iron Curtain, are based on the actual scale of the weapon models. This is in contrast to the Minigun and Natascha, which used separate skewed models to present more of the weapons on the screen.
