What are the best guns in Warzone 2?
Speaking at the Red Bull Gaming Sphere in London ahead of the launch of Warzone 2, Red Bull player Liam 'Jukeyz' James shared his insights from the pre-launch pro player event he attended in LA.
Asked which guns he would recommend in Warzone 2, Jukeyz told RadioTimes.com: "The M4, again. And the AK-74U, because that's the most broken gun I've ever used in the past five years. It's like an SMG but an AR at the same time. So it's in the assault rifles.
"We know the AK-74U from back in the day and then the past couple of years - it was on like Cold War a few years ago, and CoD 4 donkey's years ago. It's always been an SMG, but now it's on the AR list. You pull it out and you can shoot up close and it can shoot a good distance. So that gun is amazing."

Jukeyz also shouted out the TAR-21 gun, saying, "That's pretty good. I use that for when I play competitive. That hits. It really hits.
"And obviously you can tune your guns this year, can't you, which is going to be mad. It's gonna be unbelievable. But yeah, M4 and AK-74U are my go-to."
Now that Call of Duty: Warzone 2.0 is launching into the world, it’s time to put Jukeyz’s words into practice and have an upper hand over your opposition right out of the gate by finding and using the M4, AK-74U, and TAR-21. You’re welcome for those wins.
