The following weapons appear in the video game Like A Dragon: Infinite Wealth:

Handguns

Makarov PM clone

The Makarov PM clone that has been used in the franchise for over 15 years returns in the game, used by countless NPCs. It can be seen in black and silver finishes.

Baikal-442 - It is a Canadian market import model of the Makarov. It features an long barrel, not seen on the military Makarov pistol.

A black Makarov, seen in Jo Sawashiro's flashback regarding the murder of Ryuhei Hoshino.

A silver Makarov, owned by the Hawaii Sujimon Contract Killer. The Makarov is quite a strange pick for a hitman based in the USA, considering that it isn't very common there, especially in Hawaii.

Walther PPK

The Walther PPK returns as well, seen in the hands of Eric Tomizawa.

Submachine Guns

Drum magazine SMG

A gun that resembles the Colt 1921A Thompson is used by a few characters, notably early boss Roman Reynolds, and as part of the arsenal of other enemy combatants with similar movesets. The in-game version is somewhat bulkier and more metallic-looking.

Other

A rocket launcher? For 100$? GOD BLESS AMERICA!!!

Flamethrower

A weird looking flamethrower can be seen to be used by Barracuda members. Various other Sujimon also use this type of flamethrower, which apparently operates of a compressed air canister type ejection model. Even more curiously, some models emit ice instead of fire.
