Warzone’s Season 1 update is reaching its end as players finish completing the events to get free rewards to prepare for the Season 1 Reloaded update. The game introduced the Carry Forward feature allowing the MW2 gun roster to continue within Warzone to level up and use.

When it comes to standing out in the popular free-to-play title, players are always looking for the best possible weapons and combinations, and after Season 1’s buffs and nerfs and January 11’s update in Warzone, many are wondering if MW2’s weapons are part of the meta.

Some powerful weapons from MW2 remain popular in Warzone Season 1.

Following the integration, Raven Software shared that their goal for weapons within Warzone was to “bring weapons as close to the intended time-to-kill range,” including “title-specific weapon balance being implemented where needed.”

This means that MW2 guns will still undergo changes to match the competitive level of MW3’s weaponry. However, SHG’s MW3 weapons are set to remain popular in Warzone due to their newness.
