Warzone meta guns (Season 4 Reloaded)

Here's all the intel on the Warzone meta and the best guns

With weapon balancing taking place regularly, mastering the Warzone meta is a key ingredient to become the last player standing. 

With Season 4 Reloaded introducing another dose of buffs and nerfs along with the Reclaimer 18 shotgun, the meta is expected to undergo a significant overhaul with the Kar98k marksman rifle expected to receive a hefty nerf.

Before the changes are made, check out the current Warzone meta in our guide packed with all the intel.

Warzone Season 4 meta guns

With Season 4 Reloaded in its early stages, Warzone fans are still attempting to establish the meta following the latest wave of weapon balancing. Despite this, there are a few options that are always going to stand out from the crowd thanks to their superior performance.

Here's a closer look at the guns currently dominating the Warzone meta:

  • Kar98k
  • Superi 46
  • Holger 26
  • FJX Horus
  • Pulemjoy 762
  • SVA 545
  • MCW
  • Lachmann Shroud
  • MTZ 556
  • MORS

Whether it's close-quarters, mid-range, or long-distance combat, the list of weapons above are more than capable of making an impact in casual and ranked battle royale matches thanks to their high damage output, low recoil, and impressive versatility.

There's a strong chance this list changes when Season 4 Reloaded clicks into gear and we'll be sure to update the guide when the next best thing emerges in the loadouts of players.
