The PC scene for Call of Duty has never been bigger. This can mostly be attributed to the success of Call of Duty: Warzone, but even traditional multiplayer players have been making the switch from console to PC over the past few years.

Given how prominent the PC player base is, it’s no surprise that hundreds of thousands of players experienced the Modern Warfare 2 beta on PC this past weekend. With so many players now using their computers to play Modern Warfare 2, we thought it would be prudent to go over which keybinds are the best to use.

Whether you’re a veteran PC player or a novice, anyone could benefit from seeing what keybinds a majority of players use. Keybinds are extremely important in any shooter-type game, as players need to feel comfortable with the inputs they’re pressing to make snap decisions.

However, there’s also an element of personal preference that comes into play. With all of this in mind, players can see the recommended list of keybinds for Modern Warfare 2 multiplayer. This will, at the very least, give players a foundation to start with.
