All Warzone & MW2 Season 6 weapon buffs and nerfs

The final season of Warzone 2, Season 6, is finally here and the devs have made a whole host of changes to the weapon pool. Here’s every buff and nerf affecting Warzone 2 and Modern Warfare 2. 

The sixth season of Call of Duty Warzone in Modern Warfare 2 marks the final season in the game before it gives way to Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 on November 10. 

To mark the end of the MW2 cycle, the devs are having a bit of a blowout and finally bringing the spooky season to Warzone. That’s right, the popular Haunting event will return this season, bringing a nighttime version of Al-Mazrah to the game.

On top of that, there are also three new weapons – the TR-76 Geist, ISO 9mm SMG, and Dual Kamas melee axes. The two guns are available immediately via the battle pass and should jump right into the top end of the meta amid a whole host of weapon changes.

All Warzone 2 & Modern Warfare 2 weapon changes in Season 6

That’s right, it wouldn’t be a new season without changes to the current crop of weapons and the devs have delivered on that front again. 

The popular ISO Hemlock and Kastov 762 have both been hit with a swift nerf, as the devs have tweaked their damage multipliers decreased. The Kastov has also had it’s close-range damage nerfed, but has seen its close damage range increased.

On the flip side, the Lachmann-762 has been given a little bit of love and had all of its damage multipliers increased. Additionally, every other battle rifle bar the Cronen Squall – which has been nerfed – has been buffed in one way or another. So, that’s good news for battle rifle users.

The Kastov 762 has been targeted for changes.

As noted, Season 6 is very much the final season of Warzone in MW2, and with the release of MW3 only being a few weeks away, it remains to be seen if we’ll get a mid-season Reloaded update. 

For now, though, You can find the complete range of weapons buffs and nerfs for Warzone 2 and Modern Warfare 2 Season 6 below.
