Trivia:[]
The Shadowstalker is one of the few fully fictional weapon in the game, apart from the Flamethrower, Shadowstalker Mk.II, and Focus weapons, meaning it has no specific real-life counterpart. Railguns do exist in real life, but are less practical due to the extreme energy demand restricting them to larger platforms or static emplacements.
However, it highly resembles the Rorsch MK1 from Battlefield 4.
When fired, the character seems to pull an invisible bolt similar to bolt-action rifles.
It is one of the few weapons that comes equipped with a scope by default.
It is one of the ranged weapons without bullet drop.
Though it fires rails, realistic railguns magnetically launch a ferromagnetic projectile forward at extremely high speeds (around 2,400 to 3,500 meters per second, much faster than an ordinary bullet) with the assistance of rails.
This implies that the weapon takes "railgun" in the literal sense and uses wordplay.
Scorpion-7 had made the Shadowstalker as a modified version of similar weaponry taken out of the UFO.
