loadouts

Equipped item combinations

Loadouts are the specific configurations of equipment, weapons, and gear that a player selects before entering a game or mission.

The term dominates video game contexts—shooters, RPGs, survival games—where choosing the right loadout affects performance: I'm still tweaking my loadout for ranked matches.

The concept extends to real-world tactical and military contexts, where a loadout is the full set of equipment a soldier or operator carries.

The plural form is far more common than the singular, since players typically create and save multiple loadouts for different situations.
