CoD: Black Ops 7 And Warzone Patch Notes Detail Weapon Tuning And More Exotic Guns

Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 and Warzone received a small update on April 21 featuring weapon tuning adjustments across multiplayer and battle royale modes. The patch includes new exotic weapons for Warzone and weapon rebalancing for Season 3, with particular focus on the MK35 ISR assault rifle.

Treyarch addressed player feedback regarding the MK35 ISR, which was praised for its low recoil and ease of handling but criticized for insufficient damage output. The update increases the weapon’s headshot multiplier and maximum damage range to improve its viability, particularly at longer distances.

The patch also introduces changes to Black Ops 7’s Ranked Play mode to better align competitive multiplayer with the weapon meta used in professional Call of Duty League matches. This synchronization ensures ranked players compete under the same balancing decisions as professional esports competitors.

Warzone receives additional exotic weapons as part of the update, continuing Activision’s regular rotation of new arsenal additions to maintain engagement and keep the battle royale’s meta fresh. The patch represents a targeted approach to weapon balancing, responding to community feedback while maintaining consistency between competitive multiplayer and professional standards.
