Discover the top firearms shaping Warzone 2 Season 5 meta. From the TAQ-V's resurgence to the power of Signal 50, explore the most popular weapons driving the competition.

The fifth season of Warzone 2 has arrived, bringing with it a number of gameplay improvements and adjustments. The meta has changed as a result of these balance changes, even if this update doesn't have the same impact as the one that raised basic health during the previous season.

The season is still in its early stages, so the meta is still fresh and subject to change. Nevertheless, it's in your best interest to alter your loadouts to reflect what's powerful and stay ahead of the competition.

The greatest weapons will inevitably become the most popular, so here are the ten most popular firearms in Warzone 2 according to statistics from WZRanked.

Best guns for Warzone 2 Season 5

1. TAQ-V

The TAQ-V was the weapon of preference for medium to long range battles in Season 1. It then had a sharp fall, however it has recently come back after Warzone 2's base health was raised. Although it isn't the most user-friendly weapon, in the right hands, it can rip through adversaries.

2. ISO 45

The ISO 45 quickly rose to the top of the close-range SMG rankings in Warzone. After a nerf shortly after, the enthusiasm subsided, but it still ranks among the best guns in Warzone and is still a fantastic option for players that appreciate its overall feel and great TTK.

3. Signal 50

Due to the restriction on explosive round snipers in ranked play, Warzone players have switched back to the Signal 50, which has never let them down. Even while it can't get one-shot kills, its reliable two-shot downs are still useful, especially in a well-organized squad.

4. Cronen Squall

More than any other gun, the Cronen Squall has been in and out of the Warzone meta. Despite yet another nerf, it once again becomes well-known with Season 5. Players can't get enough of the punchiness of this gun for some reason.

5. VEL 46

One of the major winners of the Season 5 update was this SMG with MP7 influences. A small improvement to its damage multipliers, which were always on the cusp of becoming meta, was more than enough to propel the VEL 46 to the top.

6. Kastov 762

The popularity of the Kastov 762 temporarily reached its peak during Season 5, although that period was short-lived. It wasn't strengthened or made less vulnerable, but as its rivals dropped off, this version of the AK-103 was able to take the top spot. The 762 is a powerful AR that competes in most gunfights as usual.

7. Lachmann Sub

The Lachmann Sub, also referred to as the MP5, is the last weapon that may be unlocked in a platform's arsenal. It can maintain a competitive edge in close-quarters gunfights because it is adaptable, swift, and powerful. It is the traditional well-rounded SMG that has persisted in the Warzone 2 meta for many seasons.

8. Tempus Razorback

The Tempus Razorback, in contrast to most new weapons, didn't change the meta right away. Although it was excellent, it wasn't precise enough to compete with the best options. Players of Warzone have, however, grown accustomed to how it behaves and have discovered how powerful this assault rifle can be.

9. MCPR-300

Popularity rankings imply that the MCPR-300 is the greatest one-shot sniper option out of the three. When you examine the sniper rifle's powerful stopping power and outstanding mobility, it's not difficult to understand why.

10. M13B

It's fantastic to see the M13's successor continuing to solidify its position in the Warzone 2 meta since the M13 was always a well-liked option in the original Warzone. The M13B's TTK is average, but this AR is incredibly precise and can take out opponents from a great distance.
