How Many Perks in Modern Warfare 4?
There are a total of 18 Perks to choose from in Modern Warfare 4, split across three Perk Slots, with one equippable from each slot.
That leaves a loadout featuring three Perks, which you can mix and match as you see fit to create your ultimate set-up, albeit with some restrictions.
You can’t select more than one Perk from the same slot, which does reduce the total number of combinations available, but players should be used to that, as it’s always been the Call of Duty formula.
Later down the line, Infinity Ward could add additional Perks through seasonal updates, though this remains to be seen.
