Black Ops 6 is getting stronger with the constant releases of Teasers, hints and videos from Treyarch, but certain information is not so official. The Black Ops 6 leaks have been making the rounds and detail many weapons including the SA87 (SA80 for all you Brits out there) and the LW3 Tundra (L96A1 for my Black Ops 1 peeps).
All Black Ops 6 weapon leaks so far
User FIreBoyi compiled the weapon leaks on Reddit after files were found in CoD HQ, detailing the weapon and the name of their real-world counterpart, along with a corresponding image. Some weapons shown are a little more on the nose than others. For example, the M16 is also commonly known as the M16A2 while the LW3 Tundra is more of a mouthful than the L96A1. But remember: these leaks have not been confirmed so take everything we have here with a grain of salt.
The weapons that attract my eye the most are the heavy reliance on the Kastovia weapons platform that tends to lean towards the Iraq war, the reign of Saddam Hussein, and even in Operation Desert Storm; the AK (Kastovia) is the most prominent weapon in that side of the world, finally. We also find the M4 and M16 (as expected for Call of Duty in relatively modern times), and dependence on Tempus Armaments which suggests the lead of America during the Gulf War in 2003.
Our second group of weaponry consists of the LW3 Tundra (L96A1), which is my favorite sniper of any CoD game. I remember using this beast to take heads off shoulders in Black Ops 1 was a joy and I sincerely hope that Treyarch is committed to bringing this monster back. The SA87 is the trusted assault rifle used by the British Armed Forces and, if the information is true, will debut in Call of Duty for the first time. Black Ops 1 players will also recognize the Olympian, but an exciting thing to note is that a vast majority of weapons here are brand new to the franchise.
Since the weaponry is divided into weapon platforms, it’s hard to tell how many SMGs, Sniper Rifles and Assault Rifles are on this list. However, it is interesting to note that Call of Duty Black Ops Cold War had 42 primary weapons (not including launchers, knives and pistols), while this leaked weapon list has 41 primary weapons. So there is a real potential that the weapons we see are what we get in BO6.
If my little research is accurate, I wouldn’t be disappointed as we get a lot of new weapons to play with, some of which have never appeared in Call of Duty before. Since CoD players have been feeling the lack of love and attention lately, a big reset and change of tone from the devs may be the best thing for the future of the franchise.
That’s it for the Black Ops 6 weapons leaks. If you’re looking for similar Call of Duty content, check out CoD fans demonstrating the terrible problem with the RGL-80 in Hardcore, Ashika Island being cut from Warzone and fans think, that there was a better solution, and more on Pro Game Guides. .
