The Contact Beam in the Dead Space remake can be found in Chapter 4, but it can be missed if you do not take the right route.

Using the Contact Beam in Dead Space Remake

Using the Contact Beam as a weapon can be a great offensive option. Its primary fire launches a continuous lethal beam that can keep up the damage, but its alternate fire is the big game-changer. Charging up the Asteroid Cutter will release a single powerful laser shot, which can take out most enemies instantly. Just make sure you have the time and space to charge it up.
