Also referred to as the MP7, the Vel 76 is a deadly SMG in Call of Duty: Warzone 2 capable of demolishing enemies from a close range in January 2023. While it might not have the one-shot kill potential of landing a close-quarter shotgun blast, the Vel 76 undoubtedly comes close by combining a phenomenal rate of fire with solid damage and superior recoil control. In addition, its high-tier mobility and handling allow its combatants to smoothly shred apart any opponent within its "sweet-spot" range. The Vel 76 SMG does have the drawback of having an inferior range and middling accuracy, but these disadvantages can be resolved in its loadout.

The Vel 76 will take the crown in close-range combat, but players must have an alternative, such as a Sniper Rifle in Warzone 2, for dealing with foes at a distance. Accordingly, using the Weapon Specialist Perk Package for Overkill is recommended for this SMG's loadout. Additionally, having a Kastov 74u AR for backup is ideal when being pinned by enemies firing out of the MP7's optimal range. Equipment-wise, players are advised to use gear that can flush out enemies, such as Drill Charges, Stun Grenades, or Semtex.
