In Call of Duty, pistols typically don't cause much fuss. But in Modern Warfare 2 and Warzone, things took an interesting turn. It all began during Season 1 when using two pistols simultaneously, known as akimbo pistols, briefly became the go-to strategy in the battle royale's meta.
However, this strategy fell out of favor due to a significant nerf. Still, sidearms saw renewed popularity with the introduction of Ashika Island, Warzone's second environment. This map highlighted water-based combat, and players noticed a curious limitation: only pistols could be fired underwater.
The situation escalated when Vondel joined the scene as a Resurgence map in Season 4. This urban environment features a lot of water, prompting players to utilize pistols for their underwater advantage. Now, let's dive into the details of Warzone's newest pistol.
Unlocking the 9mm Daemon in Warzone 2 & Modern Warfare Season 5 Reloaded
To add the 9mm Daemon to your arsenal in Warzone 2 and Modern Warfare 2 Season 5 Reloaded, you need to complete Sector E0 of the free Battle Pass. Afterward, achieve 15 Operator headshot kills with Pistols.
Infinity Ward definitely had a purpose when introducing the 9mm Daemon. The developers stated: "The Sidearm category grows deeper with this new addition, set to rival the P980 and X12 for the low-caliber semi-auto throne."
The 9mm Daemon boasts the quickest semi-automatic fire rate among pistols and even offers an akimbo attachment.
