Need to swap out your traps but can’t find the menu? Wondering if the developers hid it just to mess with us? Don’t worry—it’s there, just not in an obvious place (because why make things easy?).

How to Change Your Loadout

  1. Click the right thumbstick to open the menu.

  2. Press RB to cycle through tabs.

  3. Keep going until you find the Loadout section—it’s at the end.

  4. Select the trap or item you want and swap it into your active bar.

That’s it. Simple, yet somehow not remotely intuitive.

Bonus Tips

  • Yes, you can actually pick which traps you bring into a match. No more getting stuck with something useless while the perfect trap sits in the void.

  • Remember, once the battle starts, you're locked in. Make changes before you hit “Go” unless you enjoy regretting your choices mid-wave.

  • If you’re on PC, just check the menus—it’s easier than doing all this with a controller.

Final Blurb

The loadout system isn’t complicated, it’s just tucked away where you wouldn’t expect it. Now that you know where it is, go swap out your traps and get back to obliterating orcs.
