In the gripping world of Freedom Wars Remastered, players are constantly navigating the ominous corridors of the Panopticon and its holding cells, as well as venturing into The Warren to confront the colossal Abductors. These towering adversaries are not only relentless but also pose a significant challenge, compelling players to make the most of their arsenal to secure victory.
Freedom Wars Remastered equips Sinners with a diverse array of weapons and items, each designed to offer a strategic advantage in these high-intensity battles. Among these tools, the Flare Knife stands out as a crucial asset, particularly in encounters with formidable foes like the Abductors. Below is a comprehensive guide on how to obtain and effectively utilize the Flare Knife in Freedom Wars Remastered.
How To Get Flare Knife In Freedom Wars Remastered
The Flare Knife, a vital combat item, becomes accessible early in the game. Once you achieve Level 003 Code Clearance, make your way to Zakka in The Warren. Zakka serves as a hub for various weapons and combat items, where you can purchase the Flare Knife for 3,000 Entitlement Points.
To equip the Flare Knife, navigate to the Loadout menu within the Personal Responsibility Portal and choose an available slot under Combat Items. If you have a Flare Knife, it will be listed, ready for you to equip and bring into your next battle.
How To Use Flare Knife In Freedom Wars Remastered

The Flare Knife is described as a reusable combat tool specifically designed for severing parts of Abductors. This feature is particularly beneficial for players who favor Polearms or Heavy Melee weapons, allowing them to sever Abductor limbs without needing to switch to Light Melee weapons. However, it's important to note that the Flare Knife is a one-time-use item per operation, requiring you to purchase another before your next mission.
To effectively use the Flare Knife, lock onto the severable part of the Abductor and use your Thorn to pull yourself towards it. With the Flare Knife equipped in your active slot, you'll have the option to initiate the severing process. This action triggers a quick-time event (QTE) where you must rapidly press a designated button to deplete the severing bar. Success in this QTE will result in the part being severed. Be mindful, as the Abductor may attempt to disrupt your efforts by leaping or crashing into walls.
When playing online with friends, coordinating to repeatedly snare the Abductor can significantly simplify the severing process, enhancing your team's effectiveness in battle.
