The Call of Duty Warzone weekly update arrived earlier today. Like previous weeks, Activision has made some tweaks to the weapons, game modes, and existing maps across its active titles. Furthermore, this week players have an opportunity to test Black Ops Cold War and its zombies mode for free.

As part of Warzone’s Season 4 update, Call of Duty introduced three new guns. One of them was the C58 that features a slow fire rate but high damage statistics. Following the Season 4 reloaded update, the C58 became one of the most viable guns in the game. This was due to its ‘broken’ Kross 4x Optic, which greatly reduced the weapons’ recoil. Raven Software has made it clear that they are ‘aware’ of this problem and are set to nerf the gun soon.
