The PPSh-41 appears in the Soviet Campaign of Call of Duty: World at War. It has a high magazine capacity, and provided that every bullet hits, and no bullet is wasted, one user can kill 14 enemies at range, or 23 in close quarters with one magazine. The recoil pattern is more predictable in this installment, a slight upward push rather than random shaking, making it easier to control. It retains the high recoil from the campaign, but is now capable of killing three to five hits at any range. In multiplayer, this weapon is usually only effective from close to moderately long ranges. Though many rounds can be carried in reserve, the PPSh-41 eats up ammo very quickly, and ammunition is not always easily obtained, as the only way to get it is for a PPSh-41-wielding friendly to die, or obtain from the wooden boxes in few occasions. However, the player can no longer swap between automatic and semi-automatic firing modes from this game onwards (the same goes to all other machine-guns and automatic rifles), though this can be largely negated if the fire button is lightly tapped to fire in a burst mode. Ammunition is more readily available from the start than its predecessor, as most soldiers use this weapon. It can still do massive damage at close range, but its higher recoil makes it less effective at maximum range than the first game. In the campaign, the PPSh-41 is a common Soviet weapon. The recoil is the second greatest of the submachine guns, only to the MP-40, consisting of a slight upward pull and random horizontal shaking. In UO, however, where the spread has been increased and damage falloff is present, it takes three to seven hits to kill. In the first game, where there is no damage dropoff, the gun can be used competently at medium close ranges, killing in two to four shots. Because they do not have a support gun capable of sustained medium-ranged fire, the PPSh's 71 round drum is used to give them an advantage in close range combat.

The PPSh is used by the Soviets during multiplayer.

The gun has a semi-automatic fire mode, however as it doesn't affect hipfire accuracy and simply impedes players in CQC, this mode should best be avoided.

In United Offensive, it is much less effective, as it takes four shots to kill one enemy, twice as many as before, but otherwise identical and still a versatile weapon for close quarters and moderately long distances. Ammunition is relatively scarce in the early levels of the Soviet campaign, when MP40s are more readily available. It takes just two bullets to kill one enemy in singleplayer, but its fairly high rate of fire when fired automatically makes it more effective against grouped targets, rather than individual ones. It has a very high magazine capacity, decent power, and only medium recoil. The PPSh is a submachine gun featured in the Soviet campaign.
