Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 is an all-time franchise hit as players are having a blast grinding the game for hours to upgrade their weapons and account level, as well as finding new ways to win every match.

The past month has been full of new discoveries of bugs and glitches in the multiplayer mode, which can help players achieve both the aforementioned goals they have while playing.

With the launch of Warzone 2 and the arrival of the Season 1 Battle Pass, Modern Warfare 2 went through a hotfix that added strange glitches to the multiplayer as well.

A recent glitch has left players in disbelief as it introduces them to an insane movement style that can help them immensely in all multiplayer matches.

Coined G-Walk (inspired from Gorilla Walk), it makes the player move like a gorilla, but at a faster pace. However, some call it the Snake Walk because it allows for movement in the form of a wave. Here's what the glitch exactly is in Modern Warfare 2 is and how you can do it.

The G-Walk is a prone-to-sprint movement method that was brought to the players' attention by EuphoriaDream on Twitter. It requires players to hit the prone and sprint button in quick succession so it looks like a gorilla or a snake's walk.

Some players highly dislike the movement as they have been the victim of players spamming the G-Walk in a match, leaving them helpless. Meanwhile, others seem to enjoy it as it is bound to get popular over time, and might even become a part of the new meta in Modern Warfare 2.

The movement mechanic has gone so viral that players are doing it in groups and rushing their opponents to incite fear in them so they panic and miss their shots. This is highly beneficial as they can melee their opponents with a knife or perform a finishing move without them seeing it.

To do the G-Walk, follow the steps given below:

Step 1: First, change your sprint settings. Head over to the Automatic Sprint setting drop-down and select Automatic Tactical Sprint. This will allow you to run without spamming the Sprint key repeatedly.

Step 2: Head over to your keybinds and assign the Scroll Key as your secondary keybind for Prone. This will allow you to get in and out of the position faster than pressing the primary key.

Step 3: Now all you need to do is follow these steps in a match:

  1. Hold Prone.
  2. Cancel it by sprinting.
  3. Repeat as fast as you can.

Upon doing this, you will successfully be able to do the G-Walk and dominate the multiplayer lobby in Modern Warfare 2. However, watch out for any Run-and-Gun enthusiasts with a fast-and-tuned Kastov as they can eliminate you in a flash.

As players are exploiting this movement mechanic to win matches and create content for their gaming socials, several other glitches in Warzone 2 are allowing them to level up their weapons faster. However, it is advised not to try these exploits as it may lead to an account ban by Ricochet’s strict anti-cheat laws.
