How to Get Shrink Ray Gun in Outer Worlds

Before you can even think about getting the weapon you’ll first need to get off the first planet of the Outer Worlds, Terra 2. Follow the main questline at Edgewater and get your ship powered up again.

At this point the galaxy map will open up to you, and if you read the computer logs of Captain Hawthorne, in the captain’s quarters, you’ll see mention of some powerful weapons, including the Shrink Ray.

Head to the cockpit and open the galaxy map, then select Phineas’ Laboratory. Once there head up the stairs and into the main laboratory area, where you’ll see Phineas standing straight ahead behind glass.

Look to the right side of where he’s standing and you’ll see the Shrink Ray just sitting there on a table, ripe for the taking. Pick it up and it’s yours. Now you can turn enemies into hilarious mini versions of themselves.

To sum up how to get the Shrink Ray in Outer Worlds.

  1. Play through the main questline until you leave the starting planet of Terra 2.

  2. Open the galaxy map from the cockpit and head to Phineas’ Lab.

  3. Head into the main lab area and look to the right of where Phineas is standing.

  4. You can find the Shrink Ray sitting on a table, just ripe for the taking.
