Warzone Season 3 Reloaded: All weapon buffs and nerfs

Both Call of Duty: Warzone and Black Ops Cold War have had some pretty major changes to their arsenals in recent updates and seasons, especially when it has come to the games' attachments which have been ripped up and put back together causing many people's favourite loadouts to no longer be as dominating as they once were.

Today's release of Call of Duty: Warzone Season 3 Reloaded has followed that trend, we already got a look at the Black Ops Cold War changes and now its time for the battle royale and again you may find yourself looking for a new primary in Season 3 Reloaded especially if you run a sub-machine gun.

But whatever weapon you run, we have you covered with all the weapon buffs and nerfs in Warzone Season 3 reloaded.

Warzone Season 3: Weapon buffs and nerfs

We will start off with the buffs with two of the game's more popular SMGs, AK-74u and PPsh-41, both receiving (overall) buffs.
