    Edit: I managed to solve this thanks to another Redditor! What happened was that even though the game said I had all the other upgrades, in reality, I was actually missing the Angled Launcher schematic which is found in Hydroponics. Once I got that upgrade schematic, I went to a bench and I was able to fully upgrade my Ripper. You will need to backtrack to each RIpper upgrade location in order to find out which one you are actually missing. You can follow a guide here: https://vulkk.com/2023/02/04/dead-space-weapons-and-rig-upgrades-and-locations-guide/#h-ripper and then watch a video here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yIkr2XMACCc as a video walkthrough.

    I have the exact same issue, the upgrade unlocks once you finish chapter 3 BUT I didn't buy it at the time. I'm at chapter 11 now and I don't see the upgrade in the store for the Ripper.

    @henrybac0n Thanks. Indeed I was missing the second upgrade, it seems the game mislabelled them or so. I got it by now!
