Call of Duty Vanguard is finally here – it feels like we’ve been waiting far too long for Sledgehammer Games‘ next entry into the Call of Duty franchise. If you’re jumping into Vanguard’s multiplayer, you’re going to need to figure out which weapon you want to use and what class build you’ll accompany it with. The Volkssturmgewehr was easily one of the best Assault Rifles in Call of Duty WWII and Sledgehammer Games is bringing it back in Vanguard. Here’s the best Volkssturmgewehr loadout and class build for Vanguard – this is one you’re going to want to use.

Vanguard’s Volkssturmgewehr – Assault Rifle

On the surface, the Volkssturmgewehr will feel like a standard Assault Rifle – it shoots fast and does a decent amount of damage. However, it’s so much more than that and easily one of the best in class. If you’re looking for an adaptable Assault Rifle for Vanguard, you could do a lot worse than the Volkssturmgewehr.

The Volkssturmgewehr is a little slower than the STG44 – a weapon it’s often compared with – but it has its positives. Its recoil control is fantastic and it sports a higher time-to-kill thanks to the increased rate of fire. It packs enough of a punch at closer ranges to be a dependable option but excels at medium-range combat.
