If you plan on dropping into MW3 Warzone, you need to be using these weapons to be competitive.
Following the launch of this year's Call of Duty title, MW3, Activision's battle royale title got a big upgrade, with Warzone re-launching in December with the new Urzikstan map, upgraded player movement, and a host of new weapons. Inevitably, players have quickly discovered the best MW3 Warzone loadouts for MW3 Season 1, with LMGs, SMGs, ARs, and snipers all in the mix.
Here are the best MW3 Warzone loadouts for Season 1, with additional information on which attachments you need to be using with each weapon. Once you've sorted your loadout, we advise you to use the best MW3 Warzone graphics settings to make sure your game runs as smoothly as possible.
Here is a selection of the best MW3 Warzone loadouts for Season 1, as per WarzoneLoadout.games, but we have also verified the in-game effectiveness of all weapons listed, so you don't have to!
Following the release of a small MW3 Warzone update on December 14, as per a blog post, several previously meta weapons were nerfed making the Pulemyot 762, a new MW3 LMG, now one of the most effective weapons you can use in MW3 Warzone. Better yet, it's really easy to use and has almost no recoil, making it a superb long-range option.
For close-range battles in MW3 Warzone, the WSP Swarm is one of two weapons which offer insane damage in close-quarters, but it does take a little bit of skill to control. Try it out for yourself!
The other close-range option in MW3 Warzone is the Striker SMG, which is more casual-friendly and easier to control, but in our opinion, not quite as good as the WSP Swarm SMG.
For all your snipers out there, there are several strong MW3 Warzone best loadout contenders including the MCPR-300 and the FJX Imperium, but the absolute meta right now is the new MW3 Katt-AMR, which will down your enemies in one shot, provided you hit them in the head or upper torso.
Despite this weapon receiving a slight nerf in the latest update, with the MTZ Interceptor's Headshot Multiplier reduced to 1.5 from 2.0, this LMG is still a solid option and deserves a spot amongst the best MW3 Warzone loadouts.
