While fans are lovingCall of Duty: Black Ops 6, the latest shooter in the series has had its fair share of bugs since launch, with the latest leaving the community baffled.
Like many shooters in the live-service space, weapon balancing and continued adjustments are a top priority for developers to keep online matches on an even playing field. Thankfully, Treyarch Studios has already releasedmultiple updates forBlack Ops 6since its release, squashing plenty of bugs and nerfing some overpowered weapons.

Black Ops 6 Bug Gives Player Three Weapons
Since its launch on October 25, players have seen a wide variety ofbizarreBlack Ops 6bugs and glitches, but many have never seen one quite like this. Over on Reddit, user MikeTheMuton posted a screenshot of their custom loadout with two AK-74 assault rifles equipped, as well as a 9MM PM pistol. They noted that they had no idea how the bug had occurred, which seemingly replaced the dedicated melee slot with a second AK-74, but that it also allowed them to take the loadout in-game and use both assault rifles. Many joked that the player had unlocked the popular Zombies perk, Mule Kick, early.
Although this bug is one of the game’s rarer ones, this isn’t the first time a user has experienced a similar glitch. In response to the post,one usernoted that the same thing happened to them in a multiplayer match, but with two baseball bats as opposed to two assault rifles.Another playeralso chimed in to say that they’ve had something similar occur in the shooter’s Zombies mode. WhileCall of DutyZombies players can usually make use of the Mule Kick perk to equip three weapons, it is not currently one ofBlack Ops 6Zombies' available perks.
While fans found this specific bug to be somewhat entertaining, there have been plenty of frustratingglitches related toBlack Ops 6’s Gunsmith. Earlier this month, Treyarch deployed a new update that fixed a variety of issues, but unfortunately introduced a new bug that was removing players' Optics from their weapons. Thankfully, the studio was quick to fix the issue and released a new hotfix update just a few hours later.
