  • The akimbo perk can be unlocked after completing a specific mission.
  • The best weapon for Akimbo Perk is currently the Fennec submachine gun.
  • Here is how you can unlock the Akimbo Perk fast in COD Mobile.

One of the biggest changes that were added in Call of Duty: Mobile was the Akimbo perk update. This perk allows players to wield two weapons for both hands to increase their firepower at a cost of less accuracy because you can’t aim down sights. There are only a handful of weapons in COD Mobile that are capable of dual-wielding and most of them are quite powerful. The Akimbo perk is perfect for players who prefer to be the entry fragger for the team and loves to go guns blazing in every match. If you’re curious about how you can unlock the Akimbo perk, here is a guide on how you can get it in COD Mobile.

The .50 GS handgun and the Fennec submachine gun are the weapons that have the Akimbo perk in COD Mobile. However, you need to unlock it first by completing a specific task.

Fennec Perk/Attachment Mission

The task is pretty simple yet slightly hard to execute. You first need to kill three enemies before you die. You need to die after killing at least three enemies so you can start stacking points for the mission.

The fastest way to finish the mission is to play Hardpoint mode in the Shipment map. The map is pretty small which reduces the time of walking around and finding enemies.

Shipment is the smallest map in COD Mobile.

Following this would allow you to finish the perk mission after four to five matches. Be careful not to die before getting at least three kills as it will not count.

Best Weapon for Akimbo Perk in COD Mobile

It is no doubt that the Fennec is the best weapon to use with the perk. The weapon’s high fire rate coupled with increased clip size due to the duel-wielding perk will allow you to sweep every room clean in a match.

Best Loadout for Akimbo Fennec in COD Mobile

This loadout focuses on increasing the weapon’s hip-fire accuracy as you won’t be able to aim down sights while dual wielding.

  • Muzzle: Monolithic Suppressor
  • Underbarrel: Merc Foregrip
  • Perk: Akimbo
  • Laser: MIP Laser 5mW
  • Ammunition: Extended Mag A

Needless to say, the Akimbo Fennec is one of the deadliest weapons in the game even after it has been nerfed.


That’s all you need to know about how to get Akimbo in COD Mobile. Keep in mind that the perk may be powerful, but the drawback is that it is less accurate and can only be useful in short-range combat.
