Call of Duty: Warzone Update Changes 1 Vanguard Weapon, Patch Notes Revealed

02/24/2022 05:46 pm EST

Call of Duty: Warzone developers Raven Software said not long ago that a nerf would be coming for the PPSh-41, and this week, that nerf has arrived. The weapon that hails from Call of Duty: Vanguard has had its damage reduced after an issue caused it to accidently have higher damage values than intended. The good news is that PPSh-41 users did get some compensation, however, since a slight buff for a different aspect of the weapon was added in the same update.

The changes for the PPSh-41 were detailed in the patch notes pertaining to the February 24th update for Warzone. Again, the version of the PPSh-41 that was affected is the one that was added as part of the game's Vanguard integration, and the nerf shouldn't have been an unexpected one if you've been keeping up with communications from the developer.

The patch notes for the latest update can be found below. Note that one of the changes for the PPSh-41 is included in the bugfixes second within the second note from the top.
