How Many Weapons Are in Modern Warfare 2?
With the launch of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare II right around the corner, it is perhaps no surprise that many are wondering just how many weapons the game will have at launch.
After all, although MW2 will be available on Oct. 28, Season 1 won't be dropping until Nov. 16. This means there will be 20 days before players can hop into Warzone 2.0, Prestige or make progress towards a Battle Pass. As such, perhaps the main thing all players should focus on this time is unlocking all of the game's day-one weapons and attachments to stay ahead of the grind before more content drops.
Here's a breakdown of how many weapons there are in Modern Warfare 2 at launch.
