Recommended AK-74 alternatives
After playing with the AK-74 for countless rounds, you may wish to switch up your playstyle somewhat by choosing an alternative. A few recommendations include:
AEK-973
XM4
AS VAL
KSV
The first three are assault rifles that excel at mid to long-range encounters, with a low TTK and relatively easy-to-learn recoil. As for the KSV, it’s currently the game’s top SMG, dominating close-range encounters with astounding grace and power.
If you still want to use the AK-74, but find that multiplayer is a bit too frantic, progression tracks through the Zombies game mode, too. You’ll discover loot keys in Zombies that lead you to the best items in the round-based co-op mode, and we have a guide to help you use them!
