Unlike other items, the Human Grenade isn't readily available. It's tucked away in the Secret Shop, a location requiring a bit of effort to reach. The good news? Access is possible between rounds, eliminating the need to fight your way through enemies to acquire it.

To enter the Secret Shop, complete the first round and return to the Service Station. Look for a ceiling tile near the Health Packs—that's your entry point. However, solo access isn't straightforward. You'll need one of the following items:

• Feather Drone
• Zero gravity Drone
• Shockwave Mine

Some players report using stacked objects within the Service Station, but this method seems less efficient. It's generally recommended to acquire one of the items listed above.

With friends, accessing the Secret Shop is simpler. One player can minimize themselves while another guides them in using a cart or other objects for elevation.

Once inside the Secret Shop, the Human Grenade awaits, priced at $2,000. While you're there, consider picking up the Duct Tape Grenade, a more powerful variant also available for purchase.
