Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 Zombies offers massive maps like Ashes of the Damned, endless Survival on Vandorn Farm, and the chaotic Dead Ops Arcade 4. Whether aiming for high rounds or completing each map's Easter Egg, players need the right weapons to survive. With 30 unique guns in the game, some shine especially in Zombies. Here's a guide to the best weapons for taking down the undead.

Jager (Pistol)

The Jager is the first pistol players encounter in Black Ops 7. While it's often overlooked in Multiplayer, it proves surprisingly potent in Zombies. Once Pack-a-Punched, the Jager transforms into a mini handheld shotgun, firing a spread of bullets while keeping the speed and mobility typical of a pistol. Its base form also deals impressive damage, making it a solid secondary choice for close encounters. Adding the Skull Splitter Barrel further amplifies its critical damage, allowing it to take down formidable foes such as the Zursa with relative ease.

DS20 Mirage and Peacekeeper MK1 (Assault Rifles)

Among Assault Rifles, the DS20 Mirage stands out for its exceptional critical damage, especially on neck and headshots. Its combination of range, controllability, and fire rate allows players to handle trains of zombies efficiently, making it an ideal companion to a Wonder Weapon during boss fights. Additionally, it's conveniently available as a wall buy at Zarya Cosmodrome.

The Peacekeeper MK1, while not optimized for long-range engagements, excels in handling hordes up close. Its rapid fire rate and high critical DPS make it one of the most effective assault rifles in Zombies. Wall buys are located at both Vandorn Farm Survival and Ashes of the Damned, giving players easy access to this fast and reliable option.

Akita (Shotgun)

For close-range dominance, the Akita is unmatched. This fully automatic shotgun fires quickly, effortlessly shredding base enemies. When Pack-a-Punched, its magazine capacity expands dramatically, complementing its fast fire rate and enabling players to handle swarms or Special Round Ravagers. While its range is limited, it remains the top choice for high-round play or situations demanding rapid crowd control.

MK.78 (LMG)

Although LMGs often see little use in Multiplayer due to low mobility, the MK.78 is a powerful choice in Zombies. Its slow fire rate is offset by high per-shot damage and extreme recoil stability, making it excellent against bosses and dense zombie trains. With the right perks—Deadshot Daiquiri, Speed Cola, and Double Tap—the MK.78 becomes a formidable tool for dealing massive damage while maintaining control over the battlefield.

CODA 9 (Pistol)

The CODA 9 is a rapid-firing machine pistol with excellent mobility and one of the highest DPS ratings of any weapon. Its fast ADS speed allows for fluid movement, and as the first wall buy on Ashes of the Damned, it's both cost-effective and immediately accessible, making it a versatile early-game choice.

Ryden 45k and Razor 9mm (SMGs)

Among SMGs, the Ryden 45k excels in sustained damage due to its incredibly fast RPM. Pairing it with Stamin-Up allows players to weave through hordes while maintaining high DPS. The Razor 9mm takes this further, boasting the fastest fire rate in the SMG category and, when Pack-a-Punched, significantly improved hipfire accuracy. Both are excellent for high-mobility, close-range combat, though the Razor's effectiveness drops beyond 10 meters.

VS Recon (Sniper Rifle)

Finally, the VS Recon is a bolt-action sniper that delivers devastating critical damage. Even unupgraded, it reliably achieves one-shot headshot kills on base enemies during the first ten rounds, saving resources like Essence and Salvage. When Pack-a-Punched, its damage spikes dramatically, allowing it to eliminate multiple zombies in a line with a single shot. Its standout feature is the unique Pack-a-Punch perk, which eliminates hipfire deviation entirely, granting perfect accuracy even without aiming down sights—a rare advantage among sniper rifles.

You can buy CoD Black Ops 7 boosting service to level up quickly and securely for gamers who want to climb rounds even more quickly.

Conclusion

Black Ops 7 Zombies offers weapons for all playstyles. From pistols and shotguns for close-range fights, assault rifles for crowd control, SMGs for mobility, to high-damage LMGs and sniper rifles for precision, the right weapon can make survival much easier. Choosing wisely is key to dominating the undead.
