Multiplayer Dominators:

Many SMGs excel in Black Ops 6 Multiplayer and Ranked Play. Their high fire rates and mobility make them lethal at close range, where most encounters occur. Gunsmith customization allows for effective mid-range performance, rivaling even Assault Rifles.

#4. PP-919: While slower in mobility and fire rate than other SMGs, the PP-919 shines at medium range. Its massive 64-round magazine is a significant advantage, particularly in Ranked Play where extended magazines are restricted.
#3. PPSh-41: This WWII classic returns with a high fire rate, excellent mobility, and surprisingly manageable recoil. The iconic drum magazine (available in standard Multiplayer) further boosts its capacity.
#2. Jackal PDW: A consistent meta pick since the Beta, the Jackal PDW offers a balanced blend of mobility, fire rate, and recoil control, making it versatile across maps and modes.
#1. KSV: Similar to the AK74u from previous Call of Duty games, the KSV boasts a rapid fire rate, exceptional mobility, and manageable recoil. Its clean iron sights provide attachment flexibility for enhanced accuracy or mobility.

Zombie-Slaying Powerhouses:

SMGs, excluding Wonder Weapons, are arguably the best weapon class in Black Ops 6 Zombies. Their speed and fire rate are crucial for navigating hordes and eliminating elite enemies.

#4. Kompakt 92: Its high fire rate and controlled recoil make it ideal for eliminating tough enemies like Abominations and Amalgams.
#3. Saug: The Saug's unique Akimbo attachment, enabling dual-wielding, significantly increases DPS. While nerfed since its peak, it remains valuable in close-quarters combat, especially with the Napalm Burst Ammo Mod.
#2. PPSh-41: Though the PP-919 boasts higher magazine capacity (further amplified by Pack-a-Punch), the PPSh excels in other areas: high fire rate, mobility, manageable recoil, and a good reload time. Combined with Deadshot Daiquiri and its Dead Head Augment, it delivers high DPS against headshots.
#1. KSV: Maintaining its dominance from Multiplayer, the KSV's fast fire rate and accuracy provide high DPS, effectively eliminating both regular and elite zombies, especially when upgraded and paired with Deadshot Daiquiri. Its mobility synergizes well with Stamin-Up.
