Every buff and nerf in Call of Duty: Warzone after new Season 5 update

Call of Duty: Warzone Season 5 is live right now, and players have been treated to a vast content drop with new POIs, weapons, gameplay mechanics, and a brand new Battle Pass.

With every season, there are also new nerfs and buffs to several weapons to change the meta and control any overpowered weapons in Warzone. Raven Software did not provide any nerfs or buffs in the official patch notes of the latest update on their site for some odd reason.

To view the official patch notes for weapon tuning in Warzone Season 5, players must go to the in-game section, where the patch notes are posted according to different update dates.

Tons of hidden changes to weapons in #Warzone, including a nerf to the CW and Modern Warfare MP5. What's strange is the patch notes @RavenSoftware published earlier are MUCH different than the in game patch notes. See for yourself. pic.twitter.com/6kBchNEmAr
