We have the best Warzone 2.0 RPK setup and loadout for you. If you're looking for one of the strongest LMGs in Warzone 2, you've come to the right place.
Warzone 2.0 comes with a brand new huge map called Al Mazrah and as you would expect, long range weapons are once again the meta. Be it a sniper with sniper support, a long range assault rifle or even a big LMG, weapons with high range and as little recoil as possible are king again.
The RPK is particularly suitable here, as it is still one of the most mobile LMGs, but still dishes out extremely high damage. With the right attachments, we can therefore turn the RPK into a heavy, somewhat slower assault rifle, which destroys everything and has a great TTK.
Note: This is the best RPK setup and loadout for Warzone 2.0, if you want to play the gun in MW2 multiplayer, we have an extra RPK multiplayer loadout.
Warzone 2.0: RPK Setup
| Slot | Attachement | Unlock Requirements |
| Muzzle | ZLR Talon 5 | TAQ-M to Level 22 |
| Optic | VLK 4.0 | Kastov 762 to Level 4 |
| Barrel | TAC 597 Barrel | RPK to Level 3 |
| Stock | Heavy Support Stock | RPK to Level 12 |
| Rear Grip | Demo-X2 Grip | RPK to Level 18 |
With this setup, we try to make the RPK as easy to control as possible. That's why we put a grip and stock on it exclusively for more recoil control. The barrel and silencer further enhance this effect while increasing range and bullet velocity. Overall, we get a very easy to control LMG with excellent range and accuracy, but not as slow as other weapons in this category.
When it comes to optics, we just go for the good old VLK with 4x magnification, but of course you can always put a different sight on it if you don't like the VLK.
WZ 2.0 RPK Loadout: Secondary, Perks & Equipment
Secondary: Vaznev-9k
With a primary weapon like the RPK, which is designed for medium to long distances and is simply far too cumbersome for close combat, we naturally need a nimble secondary weapon. We opt for the Vaznev-9k here, which is an absolute monster in multiplayer as well. Should you get pushed or decide to go into melee, this is a super weapon to save your butt.
Perks (Base, Bonus & Ultimate)
Since we can no longer choose our own perks in Warzone 2.0, we have to choose one of the pre-made perk packages. Here is the best perk package in Warzone right now:
| Perk Package | Recon |
Base Perk | Tracker, Double Time |
| Bonus Perk | Focus |
| Ultimate Perk | Birdseye |
Birdseye is like having a near-permanent Advanced UAV, which makes it by far the most valuable Ultimate Perk. And Recon is the only package that contains Birdseye, so it's a must-pick. Alongside Birdseye, you get Focus, which is good because it gives you a universal buff to stability while ADS'd. While both Tracker and Double Time are also great in Warzone.
Equipment (Lethal, Tactical)
This is the equipment of our choice:
| Lethal | Semtex |
| Tactical | Stun Grenade |
Stun grenades, of course, are again extremely powerful and do well in almost any loadout. Semtex, on the other hand, is a good choice against infantry and vehicles, and there is simply nothing more satisfying than sticking a grenade to an enemy's head....
That was our RPK setup and loadout for Warzone 2.0, and if you're wondering what the best weapons in Warzone 2.0 are right now, we've got something for you.
