Modern Warfare 3’s gun count will make your jaw drop

Weapons are the most important aspect of a Call of Duty title, especially in multiplayer where tuning and experimenting with loadouts never gets boring.

So, when Sledgehammer revealed that every gun from MW2 would carry over to MW3, including their attachments, it got fans extremely excited.

This means more freedom, customisation, and options to create the ultimate setup for dominating opponents on the battlefield.

Well, MW3’s gun count for launch has finally been revealed, and the massive number is nothing short of jaw-dropping.

Modern Warfare 3 has 114 weapons in multiplayer

There are 114 weapons available in Modern Warfare III at launch.

According to the popular Call of Duty account CharlieINTEL, Modern Warfare 3 will have a total of 114 weapons at launch to choose from in Gunsmith.

It’s worth noting that 77 of these weapons are from MW2 and are being carried over, with 37 being new and arriving with MW3.

This will give competitors more choice than ever before when fighting across the classic MW2 (2009) maps like Terminal and Highrise.

Of course, this will pose a huge burden on Sledgehammer for balancing, with so many weapons available, there’s a massive responsibility to keep them all in check.

Every new MW3 weapon coming at launch

Before now, the devs have remained tight-lipped on the full list of MW3 weapons, but we finally have access to the entire arsenal.

Here’s every new weapon coming with MW3:

As you can see, there are plenty of weapons to customise in MW3 and as a result, it’ll be interesting to see how the meta develops.

Let’s hope Sledgehammer can keep a leash on all these weapons because if they can, the Gunsmith experience is going to be brilliant – especially with weapon tuning dropped.
