As with every season release, Call of Duty: Warzone leaks have started appearing online, revealing details of what is to come before the official reveal.

Red Doors, new weapons, operators, and game modes were introduced in Call of Duty: Warzone's Season 4.

After the key art for Call of Duty: Warzone was unveiled, players started investigating the image for clues as to what is in the next season. As fans looked closer at the new female character sitting front and center, they noticed a weapon resembling the Tec-9 in her hand. This Call of Duty: Warzone weapon would be a machine pistol, and this would be its first debut in the Call of Duty franchise. This weapon is known for being one of the most controversial and famous sidearms in Counter-Strike: Global Offensive, and it appears at an interesting time in the Call of Duty timeline.
Some members of the Call of Duty: Warzone community are not overly enthused with the idea of adding in the infamous pistol. The Tec-9 is known for being a high damage weapon that can sweep down squads quickly and efficiently. Call of Duty: Warzone Akimbo fans immediately see the problem as this could cause a major balance issue within the game.
In addition to balance concerns, fans also worry about the weapon's impact on the hacking problem within the game. Call of Duty: Warzone fans shared their concerns, pointing out that an Akimbo Tec-9 combo mixed with aimbots and wallhacks could cause major issues in the title.
Call of Duty: Warzone fans are expecting an almost immediate nerf if the weapon is introduced. However, other fans are saying that the Tec-9 is the last straw, and are leaving the game for other opportunities. While it is unclear how Call of Duty: Warzone Season 5 will perform among the game's remaining fans, most players agree that the Tec-9 will be a deadly new addition to the already lethal armory selection.
Call of Duty: Warzone is available on PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
