As of now, there have been a total of five Kakakuri that have been confirmed at launch. It’s indicated that all of them are the standard Kakakuri, which leads to the possibility of many more improved ones down the line. But without further ado, let’s check out those we do know about!

Crate

A crate is the foundation of any Kakakuri, it’s really just the base jumping-off point and launches hunters into the air for aerial attacks.

Spring

The Spring is a better version of the Crate, as it launches players in the air much faster and higher. This makes it great for evading a threat or even getting behind it and attacking.

Torch

The Torch is a pretty unique in-game gadget. It’s used as a light in dark places but can also give your weapon an extra damage boost if you heat it up near it.

Glider

If you’re at a high point and need a quick way down or want to land on your prey, then the Glider is the one for the job. It can be used with something called the wind vortex as well as several Crates.

Celestial Anchor

An interesting Kakakuri, the Celestial Anchor can be useful in combat to slingshot you or other hunters around your target. But it can also be fun just to play around with outside of combat too.
