Finding the new meta in Warzone after the Black Ops 6 integration can be challenging. While gamers who've already played BO6's Multiplayer may be familiar with title's weapon mechanics and know what to use, dedicated WZ players could need time to adapt the gunplay.

Although firearms behave consistently in Black Ops 6's Multiplayer mode, Warzone has a unique survival element, with battles spanning various terrains and ranges. In this title, the best setup seems to be the Model L assault rifle for long-range encounters and the PP-919 SMG for close-range combat.

However, this recommendation could change with further testing. We’ll update this article as more optimal combinations emerge. For now, here's a look at the best meta options to currently use in Warzone after its integration with Black Ops 6.


Best Model L loadout in Warzone after Black Ops 6 integration

The Model L assault rifle is an excellent long-range choice, boasting a slow fire rate and impressive damage. The former makes it highly controllable, allowing even beginners to manage its consistent recoil effectively. Using the right attachments will enhance this rifle's bullet velocity and stabilize its recoil, ensuring optimal performance in combat.

Recommended build

  • Muzzle: Compensator
  • Barrel: Reinforced Barrel
  • Optic: Jason Armory 2x
  • Underbarrel: Vertical Forgrip
  • Magazine: Extended Mag II

The Compensator muzzle significantly improves vertical recoil control, while the Vertical Foregrip underbarrel makes it easier to manage horizontal recoil.

The Reinforced Barrel optimizes the weapon for gunfights across long distances by boosting bullet velocity and damage range.

For the magazine, the Extended Mag II is the best option, as it adds 20 extra rounds. This, however, will lower the gun's mobility slightly. However, since this setup is intended for medium- to long-range engagements, the trade-off is negligable.

The Jason Armory 2x is the recommended optic, providing 2x magnification to improve visibility for distance engagements.

Best PP-919 loadout in Warzone for close-range battles

The PP-919 SMG is ideal for close-range combat, with a default 64-round magazine that frees up an attachment slot. This weapon offers exceptional control and mobility, making it easy for anyone to master in a few matches.

To maximize its performance, leveling up the PP-919 unlocks attachments that further refine its effectiveness in close-quarters encounters.

Recommended build

  • Muzzle: Compensator
  • Barrel: Reinforced Barrel
  • Optic: Kepler Minroflex
  • Stock: Balanced Stock
  • Rear Grip: Commando Grip

The Compensator muzzle improves both vertical and horizontal recoil control, making the SMG more stable and easier to control.

The Reinforced Barrel increases bullet velocity and damage range, slightly enhancing its effectiveness at medium range.

The Balanced Stock boosts mobility — which is crucial for close-range combat — by improving aim-walking speed, movement speed, hipfire-movement speed, and strafing speed.

The Commando Grip further enhances mobility by increasing ADS speed and sprint-to-fire speed.

Finally, the Kepler Microflex provides a clean and precise sight, making it one of the best optics in this game.
