A Call of Duty game is only as good as its weaponry, and Modern Warfare 2 will follow in the franchise’s footsteps with some sick new tools of the trade.
The Modern Warfare franchise has seen an incredible amount of classic guns. Who can forget the ACR or Intervention from the original MW2? Or the Striker and FMG9 from MW3? Anticipation is high for what kind of guns the new MW2 will have.
Recently, a data miner found information pertaining to Modern Warfare 2 in an update for the alpha test of the mobile Warzone game and spread the information onto the internet. The dataminer, a user on Twitter named @RealiityUK, has since been suspended from the site for posting leaks, which lends some legitimacy to the content.
Here’s what we know about the weapons in MW2 so far.
