Overpowered Snakeshot Revolver Removed from Warzone in Emergency Update

Raven Software acts swiftly to address player complaints about game imbalance caused by the Tyr revolver's Snakeshot rounds.

  • Raven Software has removed the Snakeshot version of the Tyr revolver from Call of Duty's Warzone game in an emergency update, following player complaints about its overpowered nature.
  • Players found that Akimbo Tyrs with Snakeshot ammo were capable of consistently one-shotting people, leading to an imbalance in the game.
  • Snakeshot rounds have been a recurring issue in Warzone, with developers having to nerf or patch them out entirely each time they are introduced.
  • Despite the removal, Snakeshot ammo is expected to be reintroduced once a balance has been achieved.
  • The response from Warzone and MW3 players to the removal has been largely positive, with many expressing relief at the end of the Tyr meta.
