Every one of Warzone’s weapons has a codename that’s used in Store Blueprints and the patch notes, and it can be difficult to tell exactly which weapons have been buffed and nerfed. Not to worry, we’ve got the codenames for every single Modern Warfare, Cold War, and Vanguard weapon in Warzone.

Call of Duty: Warzone features over 150 weapons from Modern Warfare, Cold War, and Vanguard. You may notice that some of the weapons are given their real name in the patch notes, but others are given codenames such as “Assault Rifle Alpha” or “Sniper Rifle Charlie.” There’s no definite reason why, but some have speculated that it’s due to licensing.

Warzone Pacific Season 3’s update, and then the March 4 update, made major changes to the meta weapons, nerfing snipers and buffing Vanguard weapons. But because of the codenames used in both Weapon Blueprints and the patch notes, it’s tough to tell exactly which weapons have been changed.

We’ve listed every single codename used in Call of Duty: Warzone, and their corresponding weapon from Modern Warfare, Black Ops Cold War, and Vanguard.
