Players can jump onto grenades to block the blast and save nearby teammates. Hand grenades can be thrown both overhand and underhand.
Grenades can be quickly thrown by pressing 'G' by default, or manually selected from the player's inventory and then thrown as desired. Other classes may have access to hand grenades in varying amounts, up to four hand grenades. All riflemen, regardless of faction, spawn with two hand grenades.
Hand grenades are the most common type of explosive in Rising Storm 2.
