Warzone’s rise has been meteoric and its combination of exquisite Call of Duty gunplay and Battle Royale excitement has sold people across the globe. The free-to-play shooter attracts new, intrigued gamers every day.

So it’s safe to assume that many will not be aware of the game’s greatest assets to own. More still, experienced players of the game may have become stifled by their existing options and fancy a change.

With weapons on offer from both Modern Warfare and Black Ops Cold War, there’s a ton to pick from. So here we have the 5 best loadouts you can rock in Warzone.

How to get your loadout

Warzone gameplay
Buy Stations are scattered across the map in every game.

For newcomers, you may be wondering how it is you can even equip your specialist loadout. After all, starting with a pistol doesn’t scream loadout freedom.

All you need to do to be able to use your loadout in-game is scavenge $10,000 and get yourself a loadout drop from the Buy Station.

Best loadouts

Some of these weapons have stood the test of time in Warzone and continue to be the go-to guns for guaranteed success. You may be using some of these already, but have you necessarily got the right attachments for them as well?

These are some of the most popular guns and attachments in Warzone.

DMR 14

The DMR 14 has quickly become the most powerful gun in Warzone.
  • Muzzle: Agency Silencer
  • Barrel: 20.8 Task Force
  • Underbarrell: Field Agent Foregrip
  • Optic: Axial Arms 3x
  • Ammunition: 30 Rnd

A newer entry on our list, the DMR 14 is an absolute beast of a Tactical Rifle from Black Ops Cold War. It’s a clear standout as the most controversial weapon in the game today. With it’s absurd damage output, you’ll be wiping out foes in barely a few shots from any distance.

This particular setup gives you a little bit more of everything to work with than the standard loadout. From better range to more shots in each clip, you’ll be nearly unstoppable in any lobby with this DMR 14 loadout.

Kilo 141

The Kilo 141.
  • Muzzle: Monolithic Suppressor
  • Barrel: Singuard Arms 19.8″ Prowler
  • Optic: VLK 3.0x Optic
  • Underbarrel: Commando Foregrip
  • Ammunition: 60 Round Mags

This ultra-reliable assault rifle is a god-tier weapon that has led the charge throughout multiple seasons. It can stand toe to toe with any weapon in Warzone, making it a great pick no matter what situation you find yourself in.

These attachments make it quite a good utility gun and extremely powerful. Favoring power and precision, this setup makes the Kilo 141 effective at range and is basically an all-purpose killer across a sprawling Battle Royale map.

MP5

The MP5.
  • Barrel: Monolithic Integral Suppressor
  • Stock: FTAC Collapsible
  • Underbarrel: Merc Foregrip
  • Ammunition: 45 Round Mags
  • Rear Grip: Stippled Grip Tape

A classic weapon in the lineage of Call of Duty. The MP5 is a quick, accurate, powerful killer.

Its great iron sight allows for an extra attachment where it really counts, meaning you can snap to a target quicker. These lightweight settings allow you to sprint around the map and provide a quicker gathering of tools and faster looting.

Grau 5.56

The Grau 5.56.
  • Muzzle: Monolithic Suppressor
  • Barrel: Tempus 26.4″ Archangel
  • Laser: Tac Laser
  • Underbarrel: Commando Foregrip
  • Ammunition: 60 Round Mags

The Grau’s lesser recoil and damage over long-distances make it a killer companion to have.

With these attachments on the gun too, you really have yourself a versatile weapon that is effective at all ranges. Not only that, but a higher magazine and walking stability make the Grau 5.56 an extremely viable option in Warzone.

MAC-10

The MAC-10 might just be the fastest-firing SMG Warzone has ever seen.
  • Muzzle: Agency Suppressor
  • Barrel: 5.3” Extended
  • Laser: Steady Aim laser
  • Underbarrel: Field Agent Foregrip 
  • Ammunition: 43 Rnd Drum

While both ARs and SMGs take up their fair share of the spotlight in Warzone, the MAC-10 from Black Ops Cold War has quickly become a must-pick. Available in the Season One Battle Pass, it’s extraordinary rate of fire trumps any other weapon in its class.

You’ll be able to turn on foes and beam them down before they know what’s hit them. Due to its bullet velocity and overall speed, accuracy won’t be your strong suit here. But with these attachments, you’ll be running and gunning with larger clips than usual to accommodate for it.

Five deadly, dynamic combinations that are winning formulas in the Warzone. You shouldn’t even need to test your skills in the Gulag with one of these loadouts in your arsenal.

Hopefully you enjoyed our 5 best loadouts in Call of Duty: Warzone and may it bring you more wins.
