The Call of Duty Warzone weapon library features one of the biggest collections of weapons in modern gaming history. Spanning Activision’s three previous Call of Duty titles, Warzone boasts weapons and equipment from Modern Warfare 2019, Black Ops Cold War, and Vanguard.

A new assault rifle is here to make its mark in the current Warzone meta. Called the Vargo-S, the new gun is a Vanguard weapon that was teased even before the launch of Season 4. It has arrived with Season 4 Reloaded, and the official description of this weapon from Activision states this:

"Trading firepower for improved accuracy and fire rate, this rifle excels in medium and long range engagements."

Based on the description, players can get an idea that the Vargo-S will be a weapon that fires slowly but packs a serious punch. This weapon will surely be an ideal choice for medium to long-range combat. Whether or not this assault rifle joins the likes of the NZ-41 as meta loadouts is yet to be seen.

This limited-time game mode will be available from July 27 till August 11, 2022.
