The LS57 is exclusively playable in multiplayer and only available for the Field Medic class. Despite having high damage output and a magazine size of 40 rounds, the high recoil reduces its effectiveness at longer ranges, making it viable for close-range combat or even mid-range when firing in bursts.

Trivia 

• The LS57, like the M82 on which it is based, incorporates elements of the real-world ZM LR-300ML, while its overall layout is clearly styled after the H&K MP5.
