The FR Advancer will be a revamped version of the iconic FFAR from the Black Ops Cold War. Just like its original iteration, the Advancer will be a bullpup AR that boasts a high fire rate and exceptional mobility stats. It is designed for mid-range engagements and will shred enemies at such ranges. But it will also have a difficult-to-control recoil, which might make it a nuisance for some.

The Carrack .300 is a bullpup Sniper Rifle designed for quickly annihilating targets at a distance, thanks to its fast fire rate and semi-automatic fire mode. It is curated keeping excellent handling and stability attributes in mind, making it suitable for aggression.

Its one-shot potential in Warzone 2 is not clear at the moment, but it is confirmed to be able to take down enemies in Modern Warfare 2 with a single shot to the upper torso.
