Arena Breakout: Infinite's recent updates have significantly affected the S4 meta. Previously, meta-defining weapons were no longer as competitive as they once were. At the same time, newer additions are taking the community by storm. Whether it's because of ergonomics or because of recoil, these are the best guns to use in the game this season.

Best Guns For AB: Infinite Season 4

AK-12 Assault Rifle

The AK-12 has seen massive player uptake thanks to its ease of use and extremely accessible 5.45 ammo. The low recoil and good ergonomics stats, paired with a decent LPVO or red dot, make the AK-12 the go-to rifle for this season. Modding this weapon is also extremely economical, since the required attachments are generally common or inexpensive. But if you want to squeeze every bit of performance out of the AK-12, it would cost close to 500K Koens, which is not that much compared to previous meta weapons.

U191 Marksman Rifle

The U191 is an extended-barrel version of the T191. It fires the venerable 5.8x42 round at a solid 750 RPM with extremely high muzzle velocity. The gun also has low overall recoil with a predictable recoil pattern. Ammunition for this weapon is relatively cheap to produce, allowing players to use larger magazines without going into bankruptcy. The best part about this gun is its ability to shoot full auto at ranges beyond 30 meters, even with 4x scopes.

AEK Assault Rifle

In terms of close-range encounters, the AEK is one of the best weapons to run with, thanks to its highly customizable magazines and its 800 RPM. The gun chambers 7.62x39 and has a plethora of magazine options, ranging from 10 rounds to a 100-round drum magazine. It has moderate recoil with a straightforward pattern, making this gun extremely potent at close ranges and in tight corridors like the TV Station or the Hotels at Northridge.

FS2000 Assault Rifle

This gun features some of the highest base stats in the game, allowing players to run the weapon without spending a single Koen for mods. The gun comes with a 50-round magazine as standard and can be fitted with traditional 5.56x45 muzzle attachments. For players looking to maximize their recoil mitigation, they can attach a variety of grips that further enhance recoil control. Coupled with its bullpup design and large magazine, this is another viable weapon for close-range encounters.

P90 Submachine Gun

Similar to the FS2000 and AEK, the P90 is a close-range laser beam, but it can also perform well at longer ranges thanks to its bullet. The P90 fires the 5.7x28, which has the highest muzzle velocity out of all the available SMGs. It has 50 rounds, which seems like a lot, but it fires at 1,000 RPM, discouraging reckless spraying. The large magazine size, paired with blistering fire rate and low recoil, allows players to bring the P90 into any map. The biggest downside of this weapon would be the cost of spare magazines. Each spare costs 60K Koens, which is extremely costly for a magazine.
