How to get Overkill in Warzone after Black Ops 6 integration

As someone who’s been through countless hours of grinding and adapting to changes in Call of Duty: Warzone since its inception, I must say, the removal of Overkill as a default feature has certainly shaken things up! It’s like they took away my trusty sidekick, my go-to backup weapon that was always there when I needed it.


After the highly anticipated merger of Black Ops 6 into Warzone, the “Overkill” rule is no longer automatically activated. This has left numerous players puzzled about how to carry two main weapons at once.

In the BO6 epoch of Warzone, there are numerous alterations such as the introduction of the omnimovement system and an array of fresh weapons for testing. However, this update also incorporates some significant gameplay tweaks and loadout modifications, one of which eliminates the Overkill feature across all loadouts.

So, if you want to run two primary weapons in Battle Royale matches, here’s what you need to do.

How to use two primary weapons with Overkill

To use Overkill effectively, you need to manually assign it as a Wildcard option within your loadout. However, this ability won’t become available until you reach level 24, so some gameplay is necessary, whether in Battle Royale (BR) or multiplayer modes, before you can utilize it.

Following the Season 1 update, Warzone now shares several Perks and Wildcards with Black Ops 6. Consequently, the Overkill perk has been transformed into a Wildcard, meaning players can only activate it if they’re prepared to forgo Gunfighter and the use of eight attachments on their weapons.

With the introduction of the traditional progression system in Warzone, you’ll find that Overkill is lost every time you Prestige. However, for those who can’t do without Overkill, there’s an option: utilize one of your Prestige tokens to make it a permanent feature.

If you don’t choose carefully, you might find yourself in a tricky situation when customizing your gear. Should you select two distinct main weapons for various scenarios, or opt for a sidearm and additional accessories with Gunfighter, or perhaps a free UAV with Battle Ready instead?

Though some players might find it challenging when they’re used to wielding both a Sniper Rifle and Submachine Gun for versatile combat across distances, this gameplay mechanic actually pushes players to adjust their strategies based on the weapons they choose.

Keeping this information handy, don’t forget to explore the top-tier weapons in Warzone, along with any updates on weapon balancing that might affect your gameplay as we move into Season 1.
