Read on to learn more about all these new additions in the latest season of COD.
Dresden 9mm

The Dresden 9mm is essentially the MP40. It is an SMG and is currently up for grabs via the Season 6 Battle Pass. The official Call of Duty blog describes it as a full-auto submachine gun with high damage output. Moreover, its recoil is quite manageable, making it easy to wield in-game. But it is not perfect. The gun struggles at range and has a lower rate of fire.
Fortunately, by equipping the right attachments for it, a lot of these problems can be mitigated to an extent, transforming the SMG into a weapon that suits your playstyle. Nevertheless, it is an SMG and meant for fast-paced, aggressive plays.
Merrick 556

It is an Assault Rifle and is currently available in the game via the Season 6 Battle Pass. The Merrick 556 is also a full-auto weapon. However, it performs well at ranged gunplay and is capable of dealing massive damage, especially if it’s a headshot. However, the problem with the rifle is its recoil, which can be a bit on the higher end.
Since the weapon has decent handling attributes, it can be wielded in aggressive plays as well. But there’s more to it. The Assault Rifle can be configured with a Barrel attachment to transform it into a high-power semi-auto weapon.
Chainsaw

It is a Melee Weapon and will be available in the game later in the season. Being a Melee Weapon, it excels at close ranges. Simply put, it deals high damage but is limited by range. However, it does have medium attack speed, which allows you to attack your enemy in quick succession. Sure, it won’t be a viable pick for the big maps, but on maps like Stakeout, it would dominate the matches easily.
X52 Resonator

Finally, we have the X52 Resonator. It will join the games during Season 6 and isn’t available at the moment. The developers have described the weapon as a full-auto “anomaly” with high damage range and a fast fire rate. However, to compensate for this, the recoil was increased, and damage per shot was reduced.
So, what exactly does it shoot? According to the official COD blog, it shoots “projectiles”. The weapon can be customized with three different Shard attachments that alter how the weapon shoots. The Orbed Eruption Shard fires versatile multi-shot projectiles, the Spiked Barrage Shard shoots a slow but lethal 7-round burst, and finally, the Stone Escalation Shard fires a powerful charged shot.
These are all the new weapons in Black Ops 6 and Warzone Season 6. If you are wondering how to unlock them in the games, make sure to check out the section below.
