Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 has introduced a lot of new mechanics and features to the classic shooter franchise. Infinity Ward most notably added the ability to run four perks on top of fully customizing weapon attachments. And you don’t even have to use a Wildcard.
How Modern Warfare 2 perks work
In Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2, you can customize a perk package instead of choosing three perks. The packages include:
2 Base Perks1 Bonus Perk1 Ultimate Perk
You start the match with access to the two Base Perks. Then you get to Bonus Perk about four minutes into the match. The Ultimate Perk is available about eight minutes into the match. This is all an estimate however — you can unlock perks faster depending on how many kills, assists, and objectives you get.
All Modern Warfare 2 perks
As explained previously, there are three categories of perks: Base, Bonus, and Ultimate. Here are all of the Modern Warfare 2 perks available in each category to better help you customize the perfect package.
