CoD BO6 Multiplayer Wildcards

For Black Ops 6, Wildcards are returning. Based on previous Black Ops titles, Wildcards allow players to add greater levels of customisation to a loadout at the cost of attachment slots or the number of grenades to use.

Here's a closer look at the Wildcards so far:

  • Gunfighter - Earn three additional weapon attachment slots.
  • Perk Greed - Equip an extra perk, taking the total to four.
  • Overkill - Equip a non-melee weapon in either primary or secondary weapon slots.

What is Perk Combat Speciality in CoD BO6?

New for Black Ops 6 is Combat Speciality, a new feature that grants even more bonuses depending on the trio of perks players pick before a match.

Each perk slots into Enforcer, Recon and Strategist categories. If players pick three perks of the same category, they'll earn the following bonuses:

  • Enforcer - Scoring kills increases movement speed and health regeneration.
  • Recon - Players can see enemies through walls for a short time after respawning. An indicator will appear when an enemy outside of your view is nearby and players won't leave a death skull after securing an elimination.
  • Strategist - Players earn score bonuses for capturing objectives or destroying enemy equipment. Spot enemy equipment through walls at a short distance. Deploy equipment and activate Field Upgrades at faster speeds.

As with all leaks, it's important to take them with a pinch of salt until Treyarch shares more information at the Call of Duty: Next event taking place on 28th August 2024 in Washington DC.

When the confirmed list of perks and Wildcards appears, we'll be sure to update the page as soon as we know more.
