Top 10 loadouts for Warzone 2 Ashika Island in Resurgence mode

Ashika Island is a popular terrain in Warzone 2's Resurgence mode. And to win, you must have the correct loadout that suits your talents and strategies. Considering the fact that the game received additional Resurgence maps for the mode with Season 4's Vondel and a fresh Al Bagra Fortress-based map with Season 5 Reloaded, fans still enjoy the Japanese-themed map.

When compared to the main Battle Royale map Al Mazrah, Ashika Island is substantially smaller. This mode's gameplay is much faster-paced and compact. Subsequently, players wanting to dominate the Resurgence mode cannot use the same loadout they used in Al Mazrah.

This article explores the top 10 loadouts for Warzone 2 Ashika Island in Resurgence mode to help you win in this battle royale.
