Best PPSh-41 Loadouts for Black Ops 6 Multiplayer and Zombies

Author:Kristen Update:Mar 04,2025

The iconic PPSh-41 submachine gun returns in Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 Season 2, proving effective in both Multiplayer and Zombies modes. This guide details optimal loadouts for each.

Unlocking the PPSh-41

The PPSh-41 is unlocked through the Season 2 Battle Pass. It's a High Value Target on Page 6, with an Ultra rarity Blueprint on Page 14. For faster access, disable automatic Battle Pass token spending and strategically allocate tokens. BlackCell owners can instantly skip to any page, making immediate PPSh-41 acquisition possible.

Optimal Multiplayer Loadout

The PPSh-41 Multiplayer Loadout

The PPSh-41's high capacity and fire rate excel in close-quarters combat. However, recoil management is crucial. This loadout mitigates that:

  • Compensator: Reduces vertical recoil.
  • Long Barrel: Extends damage range.
  • Vertical Foregrip: Improves horizontal recoil control.
  • Extended Mag II: Increases magazine size to 55 rounds (note: penalties to ADS speed, reload, and sprint-to-fire speed).
  • Balanced Stock: Enhances hipfire, strafing, sprint-to-fire, and movement speed.

Recommended Perks:

  • Flak Jacket: Reduces explosive and fire damage.
  • Assassin: Highlights killstreaks and provides bounty packs.
  • Double Time: Extends tactical sprint duration.
  • Scavenger: Resupplies ammo and equipment from kills. This combination unlocks the Enforcer Combat Specialty for increased movement speed and health regeneration upon kills.

Ranked Play Adjustments

Ranked Play has restricted attachments. Use the above build, replacing Extended Mag II with Recoil Springs (as Extended Mag II is unavailable). Use these perks:

  • Dexterity
  • Fast Hands
  • Double Time
  • Flak Jacket

Optimal Zombies Loadout

The PPSh-41 Zombies Loadout

The PPSh-41's high fire rate and magazine size make it ideal for horde control in Zombies. This loadout prioritizes accuracy and mobility:

  • Suppressor: Chance for extra salvage.
  • Long Barrel: Improves damage range.
  • Vertical Foregrip: Improves horizontal recoil control.
  • Extended Mag II: Increases magazine size to 55 rounds (note: penalties to ADS speed, reload, and sprint-to-fire speed).
  • Quickdraw Stock: Significantly improves ADS speed.
  • Steady Aim Laser: Improves hipfire accuracy.
  • Recoil Springs: Improves both horizontal and vertical recoil control.

For optimal performance, utilize Speed Cola with the Classic Formula Major Augment and Deadshot Daiquiri with the Dead Head Major Augment to boost reload speed and critical hit damage.

Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 is available now on PlayStation, Xbox, and PC.
