The Bouncer in Up Your Arsenal functions near-identically to the weapon in Going Commando, remaining able to deal with most enemies purely by itself. It upgrades to the Heavy Bouncer upon reachng level 5, and in challenge mode, it could be upgraded to the Mega Heavy Bouncer for 740,000 bolts from any Gadgetron vendor, and upgraded further with use. It can be purchased from him for 150,000 bolts, though if the player has a Going Commando save file, it is acquired for free. The Bouncer becomes from Slim's vendor on Aquatos upon reaching the Thran Asteroid Belt. The former can enhance the power of the weapon by applying damage over time, with its spread of bomblets allowing the acid effect to affect multiple enemies, whereas the latter greatly increases its range and allows it to easily hit flying targets and enemies from further away.

The weapon can be modified with the Acid Mod or the Lock On Mod. In challenge mode, it upgrades to the Mega Heavy Bouncer for 350,000 bolts from any Megacorp vendor. It upgrades to the Heavy Bouncer with use, a change which simply increases the size and damage of the bombs, but does not change the weapon. The Bouncer is available for purchase from any vendor for 100,000 bolts upon reaching the mining area on Tabora. It is not without flaw, however, for it has a very low rate of fire and mediocre range as well, being unable to hit flying enemies, or those on higher ledges.
The sheer power of the bomblets will overwhelm any single foe, while the sheer number will overwhelm any group within reach. Because of the nature of the bomblets, it is just as useful against singular, strong enemies, as it is against a large number of weaker to medium-strength enemies. Upon detonation, it will release a large amount of bomblets, which proceed to either bounce towards a target of their own choice, or detonate prematurely if nothing is found.
Upon firing, the Bouncer's bomb will attempt to bounce towards the nearest target, either exploding on contact or prematurely if nothing is reached. They differ slightly in appearance between Going Commando and Up Your Arsenal. The bombs launched bounce slightly before launching many bomblets which bounce multiple times before finding their targets. The Heavy Bouncer is slightly longer, and is almost entirely black, save for a few yellow accents on the top of the back end. It has a large nozzle from which the bombs are launched. The Bouncer is a bomb launcher with a blue primary and orange secondary color usage. Slim promised to offer a 10% smart shopper discount if Ratchet arrived quickly, commenting on Ratchet's connections when the player obtained the weapon for free. In his next adventure, Slim Cognito sold the Bouncer from Aquatos, offering it to Ratchet during " Find Captain Qwark". The Bouncer was developed by Megacorp, and first sold to Ratchet at the mining area, Tabora.
