Black Ops 6 and Warzone take players on a trip down memory lane, leaning heavily on the return of Verdansk, along with Shooting Range for Multiplayer in particular. That’s not all, however, as a roster of Modern Warfare-era weapons has also arrived for the launch of Season 3, bringing a collection of classic firearms for players to grind for.
Few weapons are as iconic as the Grau 5.56 from Modern Warfare (2019), boasting pinpoint accuracy and excellent damage potential at long range. While the weapon has returned once again in Black Ops 6 and Warzone, this time there’s a twist. Here is how to get the Grau 5.56 in Black Ops 6 and Warzone, along with the best loadouts for it.

Black Ops 6 & Warzone: How To Unlock All Season 3 Attachments
Season 3 of Black Ops 6 and Warzone brings a roster of attachments, from range boosting Suppressors to weapon conversion kits.
How To Unlock The SWAT 5.56 Grau Conversion
Players looking to get their hands on the Grau 5.56 will need to unlock the SWAT 5.56 Grau Conversion, a Fire Mod attachment that converts the SWAT 5.56 into the iconic full-auto Assault Rifle from Modern Warfare (2019). To get it for free, players will need to spend a single Battle Pass Token on it at Page 5 of the Battle Pass, or simply level up the Battle Pass to Page 5 with the Auto Spend feature in the Token Bank enabled.
Following the end of Season 3, the SWAT 5.56 Grau Conversion will become an Armory Unlock for those who have not already claimed it through the Season 3 Battle Pass.
Best Grau 5.56 Loadout For Black Ops 6 Multiplayer
Best Grau 5.56 Black Ops 6 Build
This first build for the SWAT 5.56 Grau Conversion offers players an iconic run-and-gun setup reminiscent of the original Grau 5.56 Multiplayer meta during its first debut. With the attachments below, players can expect a relatively low-recoil weapon that is easy to control, enough ammunition for racking up killstreaks, and other neat benefits like increased strafe speed, hipfire accuracy, and more.
Recommended Attachments:
-
- Suppressor (Muzzle)
- Vertical Foregrip (Underbarrel)
- Full-Auto Extended Mag (Magazine)
- Commando Grip (Rear Grip)
-
- Balanced Stock (Stock)
- Steady Aim Laser (Laser)

Although we opted to use the default iron sights, we have left room for an Optic to be equipped if players wish.
Best Black Ops 6 Perk Package & Wildcard
The Grau 5.56 is an excellent aggressive option in Black Ops 6 Multiplayer, and what better way to enhance such a loadout than to go all out with an Enforcer-based Perk Package, followed by the Gunfighter Wildcard for extra weapon attachments? The Perks below do a great job of facilitating aggressive plays, from resupplying players’ ammunition, revealing nearby enemies on the minimap upon getting an elimination, to bringing back classic movement with a faster base sprint speed.
Recommended Secondary For Black Ops 6
No loadout is complete without a reliable swap-to secondary, and there are a few notable options that players can try out. For excellent damage, the Stryder .22 is definitely a standout option in the Pistol category, serving as a reliable semi-automatic choice with a little more versatility at range. If players want a full-auto secondary, however, then either the Grekhova or the Sirin 9mm will also do just fine.

Best Warzone Perk Package & Wildcard
The Grau 5.56 is a masterclass of a weapon when paired with movement-enhancing Perks, allowing players to outgun those at close to medium range when used effectively. The Perk and Wildcard options listed below allow players to shrug off fall damage, tactical sprint indefinitely, and receive a boost in movement speed when taking damage from incoming fire. Players will also be given the ability to run an additional primary weapon, making their loadout just that more versatile.
- Mountaineer (Perk 1)
- Sprinter (Perk 2)
- Resolute (Perk 3)
- Overkill (Wildcard)
Recommended Secondary For Warzone
When it comes to recommended secondary options for the Grau 5.56, players have two major weapon categories they can pick from. The first is the Submachine Gun category, which will handle close-range gunfights while also providing an additional swap-to option during situations where players are unable to reload. For Season 3, the C9 is an excellent option, followed by the KSV.
For those looking for a more long-range option, a Sniper Rifle is also a great choice. To keep in spirit with the return of Verdansk, the HDR is an excellent Sniper Rifle to use, boasting high damage and excellent range. For those looking for a faster option, however, the LW3A1 Frostline will do just fine.
