Call of Duty: Warzone - Top 5 SMGs players should use to dominate Fortune's Keep in Season 4 Reloaded

Call of Duty: Warzone Season 4 Reloaded is being lauded as one of the best patches that Raven Software has delivered in recent memory. The update introduced one of the most balanced metas that players have seen since the release of Warzone Pacific.

Call of Duty: Warzone Season 4 Reloaded brought tremendous changes to the game meta. Gone are the days when Vanguard weapons ruled the battlegrounds. The update has caused many of the meta guns from Modern Warfare and Black Ops Cold War to return to relevance.

However, the total weapon count of Call of Duty: Warzone is slowly inching towards the double century. For this reason, operators have a much harder time choosing which gun to equip to remain competitive in their matches.

This article lists the five most dominant sub-machine guns (SMGs) in Season 4 Reloaded that players can equip on Fortune's Keep.

Marco 5, MAC-10 and 3 other powerful SMGs to use on Fortune's Keep in Call of Duty: Warzone Season 4 Reloaded

Fortune's Keep is the latest map that was added to Call of Duty: Warzone with the Season 4 patch. The map is similar in size to Rebirth Island and is based on a real-life island in the Mediterranean Sea.

Though players might have to engage enemies in mid-to-long range combat, the majority of gunfights on the map will happen in close quarters. With this being the case, the presence of a low time-to-kill (TTK) meta SMG is a must in the custom loadouts of the operators.
