The Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2 developers have released the latest patch notes that are live as of November 16th.
WEAPONS
The Season 01 Weapons drop covers the gamut of playstyles, from the high-speed BAS-P Submachine Gun, to the hard-hitting Victus XMR Sniper Rifle. Mid-range combat is certainly an option with the super stable and high rate of fire M13B. These new Weapons will expand Loadout capabilities to cover all the exciting new modes Season 01 has to offer.
New Weapons

- Victus XMR: Sniper Rifle
- Free Weapon acquirable via the Season 01 Battle Pass (A15)
As the longest range Sniper Rifle in our arsenal– we fully expect that the Victus XMR will be a player favorite when taking on dropping into the vastness of Al Mazrah. The first bullet-drop-indicating scope can be unlocked by leveling-up this weapon.

- BAS-P: Submachine Gun
- Free Weapon acquirable via the Season 01 Battle Pass (A6)
- M13B: Assault Rifle
- Unlocked via Store Bundle or via Bruen Platform progression
