The latest Call of Duty: Warzone update for July 2025 focuses on improving gameplay balance and stability, with a series of weapon adjustments and critical bug fixes. The changes aim to enhance the overall player experience, particularly in competitive matches where precision and reliability are key.
Key Weapon Changes
Several weapons have been rebalanced to address community feedback and gameplay data. Among the most notable adjustments are:
- AMES 85, GPR 91, Kilo 141, KRIG C, and DM-10 Marksman Rifle: Tweaked to better align with their intended roles in the meta. Players may find these weapons performing differently in key scenarios, encouraging shifts in loadout strategies.
- Visual Recoil Reduction: All Black Ops 6 weapons now exhibit less visual recoil when using 2x, 3x, or 4x scopes, making it easier to stay on target during long-range engagements.
- Strafing Tuning: Strafing speed while aiming down sights has been reduced for Modern Warfare 2 and 3 weapons, increasing their stability and responsiveness when firing on the move.
These changes are expected to make long-range firefights more manageable and to promote a more diverse set of viable weapon choices.
Bug Fixes Improve Stability and UI
Alongside weapon updates, the patch addresses several bugs that have affected players:
- Resolved crashes occurring in the pre-match lobby.
- Fixed UI glitches in the loadout menu that obscured options.
- Corrected missing unlock requirements for certain sprays.
- Adjusted the Cranked modifier countdown timer to display correctly.
These fixes aim to enhance the overall smoothness of matches and reduce interruptions due to technical issues.
A More Balanced and Reliable Experience
The July 2025 update reflects ongoing efforts to maintain balance and improve quality of life in Warzone. With weapons fine-tuned, visual recoil reduced, and critical bugs resolved, players can expect a more stable and competitive environment heading into the next season.
As the meta adjusts to the weapon changes, players are encouraged to experiment with new loadouts and tactics to stay ahead.
