How to equip two primary weapons in BO6
In BO6, you can typically equip only one primary weapon, but by unlocking and using the Overkill Wildcard, you can carry two primary weapons simultaneously. It is unlocked upon reaching level 11.
Once you’ve earned the Overkill Wildcard, you can equip it to use both your primary and secondary weapon slots for any non-melee weapon of your choice. Those who played the beta may already have the card, but new players can quickly reach level 11 by completing daily challenges.
