With the release of every new update, Activision adds new maps, modes, battle pass, events, and much more to Call of Duty: Mobile. However, in addition to adding new content, work is done to balance out the weapons to make the gameplay fair and interesting for all the players.
COD Mobile Season 3 (2023) is no different, as it will also bring a ton of weapon nerfs and buffs. Activision has revealed all the balance changes coming to the update, and you can find them below.
