All Battlefield 6 weapons

What weapons are in BF6? Games like Battlefield can live or die on their gunplay, with both the selection of firearms and the feel of using them key in ensuring a fun and rewarding experience. Thankfully, it looks like BF6 not only has a varied cast of guns, but Kinesthetic Combat looks to ensure a satisfying learning curve for any weapon you choose to pick up.

With the Battlefield 6 release date not far off and several Battlefield 6 beta weekends on the horizon, players are starting to get themselves prepared to jump back into the fight. One way to prep yourself is you get comfortable with the guns you'll be using to win matches and dominate foes on your way to the top. Here is every Battlefield 6 weapon.

Assault Rifle

A Jack of all trades, the assault rifle class is a perfect all-rounder for those who find themselves facing different types of engagements within each match. Most can be configured for close-quarters or for more mid-range firefights, depending on what the situation calls for.

• NVO-228E - This powerful assault rifle chambered in 7.62 Soviet is a reliable weapon designed for mid-range encounters.
• B36A4 - A versatile carbine that can be modified to compete in both close-quarters and ranged encounters.
• M433 - Chambered in 5.56×45, this cutting-edge rifle is best suited for closer ranges due to its above-average rate of fire.

Carbine

Carbines are the unruly cousin of the assault rifle, often taking up more of a specific role on the battlefield, although their use can be considered largely the same. Some of these weapons can outpace the range or the sheer power of the assault rifle, but they comes at the cost of being more difficult to use.

• M4A1 - With its high cyclic rate, extending this carbine's effective range requires competent recoil management.
• AK-205 - With an average cyclic rate and 5.45x39mm chambering, this rifle offers superior ranged performance.
• M417 A2 - Chambered in 7.62x51mm, this compact battle rifle offsets its high damage with a steady rate of fire.

SMG

Submachine guns are the perfect close-range weapon, with high rates of fire and pinpoint accuracy over short distances. On the smaller TDM encounters, these will be your go-to choice. Can be modified to extend range, but will generally be outpaced by assault rifles in that regard.

• SGX - A modern 9.19mm PDW suited for close-range engagements. It can be configured to improve its ranged capabilities.
• PW7A2 - A 4.6x30mm chambering ensures this PDW outperforms at range. Still effective in close quarters due to its high rate of fire.

LMG

The Support's weapon of choice, LMGs, have deep ammo reserves and an impressive effective range. Not as deadly as some of the other choices, these weapons can be used to suppress enemies, laying down cones of fire to assist your team advance, or escape an encounter.

• L110 - An all-purpose Squad automatic Weapon chambered in 5.56x45mm. Well-matched for most engagements.
• KTS100 MK8 - With low recoil and a steady RPM, this light machine gun's moderate damage is offset by accurate suppressive fire.

DMR

The DMR, or Designated Marksman rifle, is a weapon that's somewhere in the middle between a carbine and a sniper rifle. These weapons excel in the mid-range, but often lack the stopping power needed for extreme distances.

• M39 EMR - Chambered in 7.62x51mm, this versatile marksman rifle is a solid addition to any squad's arsenal.
• SVK-8.6 - A precision rifle chambered in the powerful 8.6x70mm cartridge. Its lethality is offset by a lower rate of fire.

Sniper Rifle

Sniper rifles are the ultimate long-range solution; slow-firing, but extremely hard-hitting, these weapons require skill to use effectively, but if you master them, you'll be a menace to any opposition.

• M2010 ESR - Bolt-action sniper rifle with quick cycle rate and extremely fast ADS speed.

Shotgun

Extremely potent at close range, shotguns are the go-to for breaching and entering a cramped space. Can one-shot most enemies from a surprising range, although you can be punished heavily if you have bad aim.

• M87A1 - A reliable pump-action shotgun chambered with 3" shells for improved stopping power.
