* Surprisingly, the VideoGame/{{Roblox}} game ''VideoGame/PhantomForces'' has over ''120'' weapons from [=WW1=] all the way to modern times, not including melee weapons, those which were removed or those in testing. Each weapon penetrates materials differently depending on their caliber, and change the way they are while crouched, so you can see the other side of your weapon while firing in a crouched stance. Very satisfying seeing all the chambers opening and closing, the bolts rattling, and the casings ejecting out as your weapon works as a finely tuned machine. The models also do a great job at looking as realistic and detailed as possible while still staying true to Roblox’s art style. From popular Kalashnikov and AR-15 variants, to practical MP and AUG series guns, to rare weapons like the Serbu BFG 50 (yes, the ''breach action'' one) and the Zip 22, effectively ''Phantom Forces’'' version of ''VideoGame/Battlefield1''‘s Kolibri. New weapons are still being added as a constant stream of updates.

*''VideoGame/EnterTheGungeon'' has it's name not for nothing: not only is there a huge load of weaponry - ancient, futuristic, magical, technological, logical and absolutely insane - but your enemies are mostly living anthropomorphic bullets, your health, money and pretty much everything else is presented as bullets, there are vast underground mines used to mine gunpowder and other weaponry components and the greatest artifact is a gun that can allow manipulation of time travel. This game is this trope taken to the logical conclusion and it does not hold back.

** The sequel ''VideoGame/Receiver2'' continues this. Not engaging a gun's safety and quickdrawing/holstering can make you shoot yourself, weapons jam in various manners, and even the speed that you insert bullets into a magazine slows down as more are loaded. Some tapes also go into detail about how guns work, and how they came to be produced.

* The indie FPS ''VideoGame/AMCSquad'' is absolutely decked out with all sorts of firearms, many of which are confined to different arsenals for each agent. In particular, James and Highwire use a ''lot'' of real-life guns, with James using NATO firearms while Highwire mostly uses Soviet-era firearms. If that isn't enough for players, the game also has a host of temporary weapons to fill out a specific slot, many of which are real-life firearms from the classic Tommy Gun to the right arm of the free world, the FN FAL. Oh, and to sweeten the deal further, many of the guns in the game can be upgraded to allow for MoreDakka and increased firepower.
** Just to put this in perspective, James Stanfield himself has no more than ''seven'' pistols for himself, each with their own functions and capabilities. And that's just for ''Slot 2'' in the game. Compared to his fellow agents, James has the biggest arsenal of weapons to choose from, and his list of options ensures that he always has something to rely on when fighting enemy forces. And Highwire? He's only second in terms of large arsenals, and he prefers Soviet-made weaponry with some exceptions[[note]]Those being an Automag pistol, Remington 870 shotgun, and [=M16A2=] assault rifle, the last of which is a ShoutOut to ''Film/Scarface1983''[[/note]].

A sister trope of MoreDakka, as the two usually go hand-in-hand, Gun Porn describes a scene or scenario with a lot of guns, enough to make a gun nut cream their pants (even women). In video games, there's also the option to see highly detailed models of said guns. Optional features include a careful attention to detail to the background, mechanism and operation, heck, there might even be BulletTime oe slow motion glory shots during the firing of a gun. Basically, someone decided that focus on the gun itself is very important.
