Far Cry 6 Shotguns are divided into two categories based on their quality and follow the same logic as all weapons Dani can use to take down Castillo, meaning that you can use Standard or Unique Shoguns. Like the Light Machine Guns, for example, the FC6 Shotguns are unlocked by completing specific tasks or exploring the world; however, while some of the Standard Shotguns can also be purchased, the Unique Shotguns must be found.

Far Cry 6 Unique Shotguns Locations

Common Shotguns

Although they are not as effective as the Unique Shotguns (without the proper mods), the Standard Shotguns are also worth mentioning in Ubisoft’s latest Far Cry game. There are 6 Standard Shotguns, and five can be purchased from the Guerrilla Garrison, while one of them comes as a reward for finishing a Treasure Hunt. Here is the complete list of Shotguns that are not Unique.

  • 1887 Sawed-Off – Available for purchase at Guerrilla Garrison
  • M133 – Available for purchase at Guerrilla Garrison
  • SBS – Available for purchase at Guerrilla Garrison
  • KSG – Available for purchase at Guerrilla Garrison
  • RMS-18 – Available for purchase at Guerrilla Garrison
  • SPAS-12 – Passing The Torch Treasure Hunt Reward
  • Jungle Expedition Special – Part of the Jungle Expedition Pack

Unique Shotguns

On the other hand, the Far Cry 6 Unique Shotguns require your presence at various locations around Yara. These superior weapons are inside Yaran Contraband Chests, and while some are very accessible, several Shotguns may prove difficult. Let’s cover all of them one by one.

Humidora

Hint: Search the Punto Este Lighthouse in Sagrado

 The Far Cry 6 Humidora Unique Shotgun is found on the southeastern side of Isla Santuario. As you can see in my second screenshot, it’s on top of the Punto Este Lighthouse. To get this weapon, you need to use the two Grappling Points to get to the top of the Lighthouse.

Ciervo Macho

Hint: Build and upgrade the Hunting Lodge Guerrilla Camp Facility to Level 2

Ciervo Macho Shotgun is at one of your camps. Specifically, the one where you have built the Hunting Lodge. Once you get 110 Medicine and 110 Metal, head to the camp where your Hunting Lodge is found and upgrade it to Level 2 to unlock this Shotgun.

Supercharger

Hint: Search the GDP Oil Platform in Cobre Shores (GDP Oil Platform FND Base)

Far Cry 6 Supercharger Unique Shotgun is found in Madrugada inside a blue container on the top floor of the GDP Oil Platform. The said Oil Platform is in the top left corner of your map. Once you clear it, look on the top floor for a blue container that is locked. 

To get the Shotgun, you’ll need to solve a small puzzle and move the containers.

COM.PEW.TER

Hint: Search the Taino Peak Relay Station in Bandido Escarpment

The COM.PEW.TER Unique Shotgun is in the Valle De Oro Region and Noventarmas. Climb the ladder to the top of the tower at Taino Peak Relay Station, and you’ll find it on the balcony.

The True Loyalist

Hint: Search the Gran Finca Power Station in Cielo Gardens

Gran Finca Power Station is also in the Noventarmas Area of Valle De Oro, and The True Loyalist Unique Shotgun is inside the station. To get this weapon, you have to complete The Truest Yaran Treasure Hunt at Gran Finca Power Station.

El Rubi

Hint: Search the Torre Del Leon

Torre Del Leon is the largest building in Esperanza and Yara. It is impossible to miss since the game’s ending takes place here. El Rubi is found in the back of the lobby. After entering the tall building, go around the front desk, and you’ll see the Yaran Contraband Chest on the ground.

Excavation Execution

Hint: Investigate Santos Espinosa Dam

Santos Espinosa Dam is an El Este landmark, and the Excavation Execution Unique Shotgun is inside the Dam Shed. Upon reaching the location marked on the map below, finish The Long Drop Treasure Hunt and get the key to the Dam Shed.

These are all Far Cry 6 Shotguns Dani can unlock in her Arsenal, so make sure you grab them as fast as possible and use them against Castillo’s forces.
