Source review — 10 November 2026: This is an original-game loadout from the dated guide below. Accessible source pages confirm the listed weapon attachment names. Perks and equipment retain their original dated attribution; the source review does not imply hands-on testing or a fresh balance-patch analysis.
The Peacekeeper is the DLC SMG of Black Ops II multiplayer, and it behaves like a cross between an SMG and an assault rifle. Wzstats ranks it second among close-range guns at A-Tier, while games.gg has it at B-Tier. Our verdict: buy into it if you own the Season Pass and want SMG mobility with more reach, using wzstats' stealth class.
Best Peacekeeper loadout
Only wzstats publishes this class (last updated 22 July 2026). bo2loadouts.com confirms both attachments fit.
| Slot | Pick | What it does |
|---|---|---|
| Muzzle | Suppressor | Keeps you off the minimap when firing; damage drops at long range |
| Magazine | Fast Mag | Faster mag swaps and reloads |
| Perk 1 | Ghost | Invisible to UAVs while moving |
| Perk 2 | Toughness, Scavenger | Flinch less when shot; replenish ammo from fallen enemies |
| Perk 3 | Dexterity, Dead Silence | Aim faster after sprinting; move silently |
| Wildcard | Perk 2 Greed, Perk 3 Greed | Allow a second perk in those tiers |
Wzstats lists no secondary, lethal or tactical.
Why this build works
Techplayguide describes AR-level damage and range at a lower fire rate. Wzstats' 24 July 2026 articles add decent accuracy, manageable recoil and high mobility, and treat its flexibility as the selling point. This class adds stealth on top of those traits rather than trying to change how the gun shoots.
How to play it
Use it where a pure SMG runs out of reach. Bo2loadouts recommends it for longer engagements with SMG mobility, and wzstats suits it to players who want a steadier aim across a broader range of fights. It may lack the raw power of the MSMC up close, as wzstats says, so do not treat it as a straight upgrade.
Alternative setups
Rush (bo2loadouts, undated): Long Barrel, Fast Mag; Lightweight, Toughness, Dexterity; Semtex, Concussion.
Objective (bo2loadouts, undated): Fore Grip, Fast Mag; Flak Jacket, Toughness, Tactical Mask; Claymore, Trophy System.
Unlock notes
Games.gg says the Peacekeeper is a DLC weapon included in the Season Pass. GameRevolution's SMG table lists Suppressor at weapon level 4 and Fast Mag at 5, and wzstats' data matches for this gun.
