With the release of the official roadmap for Vanguard and Warzone Pacific Season 3, players finally got a glimpse of the new weapons coming.
The excitement for Vanguard & Warzone Season 3 is starting to heat up as players get their first look at the new season thanks to the release of the roadmap. Not only did we get a better look at the new Godzilla and Kong events, but we also got to see some new Vanguard content, such as the trophy system.
One of the most interesting additions to Vanguard and Warzone in Season 3 are the new weapons, so let’s take a closer look at them.
Warzone Pacific and Vanguard Season 3 Weapons
Players will get four new weapons for Vanguard and Warzone in Season 3, all from different weapon classes.
Two of the four will drop when the new season launches on April 27, while the other two will drop at the mid-season update.
M1916: Marksman Rifle
First, we have M1916 Marksman RifleThis will fall on Season 3 begins Warzone Pacific and Vanguard.
There isn’t much information on how players can unlock this weapon, but based on previous seasons, we expect it to appear in the Season 3 Battle Pass at around level 15.
Since this weapon is a marksman rifle, players will consider using this weapon for a long-range tactical playstyle, complemented by a close-range secondary weapon. However, the Call of Duty blog describes the weapon as:
“A semi-automatic rifle with both power and rate of fire. Impressive at any range in the hands of a capable shooter.”
Nikita AVT: Assault Rifle
Next we have Nikita AVTit sounds like it could be a contender for the top spot in the season 3 Assualt Rifle metadata because it’s also reach launch.
We’re also expecting this weapon to be available through Warzone and Vanguard’s Season 3 Battle Pass around level 30, but until we have more information on the new season’s BP, that’s just a guess.
Described as “accurate and reliable with a top-notch rate of fire”, the weapon is for players who like submachine guns but are looking for something with better mid-range capabilities.
H4 Brison: Submachine gun
we still have H4 Brisonwhich will be the same as Mid-season update During Season 3: Classified Weapons, it may be unlocked through challenges.
Submachine guns have been very dominant lately, especially Respawn Island has become very popular in Season 2. The Blixen is said to feature the Sten and PPSH-41, which is an interesting combination of weapons.
This SMG may have excellent short- and mid-range capabilities, but since it’s coming mid-season, we won’t have more information on it until we get closer to the mid-point of Season 3.
Sledgehammer: Melee
Finally, a new melee weapon will appear in Vanguard and Warzone Season 3, called junkyard jet sledgehammer. This will be peak season And sure to bring joy to those who love running around the map, smashing enemies with melee melee weapons.
The design is particularly interesting because the head of the hammer appears to be a jet taken straight from the plane. With the season coming, the developers have confirmed that players will face unlock challenges to get it, and there’s also a “new store bundle that will feature this strike tool.”
That’s all there is to the new weapons coming in Season 3 of Warzone and Vanguard. If you’re interested in more from the new season, check out Vanguard’s upcoming Ranked Battle rewards and new multiplayer maps.
