The Magstorm is an electromagnetic railgun that was first seen during the Starfield Direct showcase of June 2023. Unlike the Magpulse or Magshot, the Magstorm appears to do very little damage with only 9 points per shot. However, its name and low damage implies that this is a full-automatic weapon, making it far deadlier than first meets the eye.
