Like the rest of the Warzone 2 arsenal, the KV Broadside comes with a huge variety of attachments capable of transforming the shotgun to suit your style of play perfectly. Here's a set of five perfect for getting up close and personal:

• Barrel: Range Twelve
• Stock: VLK Stockless
• Ammunition: 12 Gauge Dragon's Breath
• Magazine: 25 Shell Drum
• Rear Grip: True-TAC Grip

The Range Twelve barrel brings additional damage alongside the 12 Gauge Dragon's Breath rounds that create a fiery inferno that's impossible for your opponents to avoid.
