Now, I’m behind on the Warzone train (the game’s massive, and my good PC is locked in an office across town), but from what I gather from folks who are up on Call Of Duty’s battle royale meta, there’s one weapon, in particular, that’s causing plenty of pain - the Grau 5.56. “This rifle is a veritable laser,” explained guides maestro Ollie in his Warzone loadouts guide, “capable of defeating even entrenched snipers over a hundred metres or more – and you really don’t need to do much with it in order to make it this way.” Suffice to say, a lot of folks feel the Grau may be a little too comfortable in its throne. In a tweet answering fan concerns, multiplayer co-design director Joe Cecot suggests a batch of weapon adjustments are heading to Call Of Duty during an upcoming mid-season update (cheers, Eurogamer).

Manage cookie settings — Joe Cecot (@JoeCecot) June 19, 2020 Call Of Duty: Modern Warfare’s latest season kicked off earlier this month, adding some hectic new mid-match events to the battle royale. While I don’t expect this mid-season update to mix things up quite as strongly, a weapon shake-up should help reinvigorate a meta that’s beginning to grow rather stagnant. It does, of course, probably mean that Ollie’s going to have to re-write all those lovely weapon guides. Full patch notes will arrive alongside the weapon tuning mid-season update when it drops at an as-yet-unspecified date.
