If you are looking for the best meta weapon in Black Ops 6 Season 2, you’ve come to the right place.

As you may know, Black Ops 6 Season 2 is currently underway. The new major update added a bunch of new weapons while balancing the existing ones, changing the meta compared to Season 1.

In the wake of that, after trying out Season 2 for a few weeks, we are here with our best meta weapon in Black Ops 6 Season 2 list.

Best meta weapon in Black Ops 6 Season 2

Here are the meta weapons, along with their possibly best optimal loadouts, that you can use this season to dominate the multiplayer and ranked lobbies:

Cypher 091

The new assault rifle, Cypher 091, is a great weapon that, even without any attachments, offers excellent mobility and handling at the cost of fire rate. 

But that doesn’t affect the TTK, thanks to high Firepower and damage multipliers. Moreover, with the right attachments, the weapon becomes even better. 

Here’s the loadout that we recommend using on the Cypher 091:

• Optic: Otero Red Dot
• Muzzle: Compensator
• Barrel: Reinforced Barrel
• Underbarrel: Launcher-Standard
• Magazine: Extended Mag I

On the other hand, here’s a loadout for the weapon catered towards Ranked and regular Multiplayer play:

• Optic: Kepler Microflex
• Muzzle: Compensator
• Barrel: Reinforced Barrel
• Underbarrel: Vertical Foregrip
• Rear Grip: Ergonomic Grip

PPSH-41

The PPSH-41 has been a beast of an SMG for almost every Call of Duty game. And now that it is finally available in Black Ops 6 with Season 2, it has outperformed nearly every other weapon in its class. 

While the weapon falls short regarding Handling and Accuracy, you can easily counter that using the right attachments. 

Besides that, it is a fully automatic SMG with very high Firepower, a prominent magazine capacity, and an impressive rate of fire. 

Here’s the best loadout for the PPSH-41 SMG that you should be using in all modes:

• Optic: Kepler Microflex
• Muzzle: Suppressor
• Barrel: Long Barrel
• Underbarrel: Vertical Foregrip
• Magazine: Extended Mag II

We recommend replacing the Optic attachment with the Balanced Stock if you need some extra Mobility. 

You can also replace the Suppressor with the Muzzle Brake attachment.

Maelstrom

The Maelstrom is the meta shotgun in Black Ops 6 Season 2, thanks to its high damage, range, and handling. 

While the bullet spread is high on the weapon, you can fix that using attachments like Full Choke. 

Here’s the best loadout for the Maelstrom shotgun:

• Laser: Steady Aim Laser
• Muzzle: Full Choke
• Stock: Balanced Stock
• Rear Grip: Commando Grip
• Magazine: Extended Mag II

XM4

When it comes to the assault rifle class, the XM4 has been one of the meta picks for a long time. 

It held the top position in Season 1, and it manages to do that, even in Season 2. 

That said, here are the best attachments that we recommend using on the XM4:

• Optic: Redwell Reflex
• Laser: Fast Motion Laser
• Barrel: Short Barrel
• Rear Grip: CQB Grip
• Magazine: Extended Mag I

KSV

The KSV is a fully automatic high-damage-dealing SMG with a very high fire rate, excellent hip fire accuracy, and significantly less TTK, making it the best SMG in Black Ops 6 Season 2. 

Here’s the best loadout for the KSV  SMG in Black Ops 6 Season 2:

• Muzzle: Ported Compensator
• Rear Grip: Ergonomic Grip
• Barrel: Reinforced Barrel
• Underbarrel: Vertical Foregrip
• Fire Mods: Recoil Springs

That concludes our guide on the best meta weapon in Black Ops 6 Season 2.
