Black Ops 7 Overclock System Guide – Maximize Your Loadouts in Multiplayer

• The new Overclock system lets you upgrade Tactical/Lethal Equipment, Field Upgrades, and Scorestreaks mid-match by using them successfully.
• Each item can reach Level 2 Overclock with powerful bonuses like lower Scorestreak costs, extra ammo, or enhanced effects.
• Test every combo safely in BO7 bot lobbies before jumping into ranked.

How the Overclock System Works

Every equipment piece, Field Upgrade, and Scorestreak starts at Level 0. Successful use (kills, objectives, assists) fills an invisible progress bar. Once full, you unlock Level 1, and later Level 2. You can only have one active Overclock per item at a time.
