Characters & Builds

In Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare's campaign, you primarily play as Captain Nick Reyes, a fixed character with a set progression. However, the game offers a robust customization system for your loadouts, which effectively acts as your 'build'. This section will focus on optimizing your weapon choices, combat rigs, and equipment to create effective loadouts for various combat scenarios, both on the ground and in space. Understanding how to synergize your chosen gear is key to maximizing your combat effectiveness.

While you don't choose a 'class' in the traditional RPG sense, the combination of your primary weapon, secondary weapon, lethal and tactical grenades, and your chosen Combat Rig (with its associated Payload and Trait) allows for significant strategic depth. We'll break down the strengths and weaknesses of different weapon categories and suggest optimal loadouts for different mission types, helping you adapt to any challenge the SDF throws your way.
