Guns and their history: 5 Weapons from World War II that you will find in Call Of Duty: Vanguard
Shooters are more trendy than ever. Every year, Activision Blizzard launches a new installment of Call of Duty, the most important shooter saga in video games today.
In each installment, the quintessential shooter reveals new content and different settings, increasingly immersive gameplay modalities, and more realistic historical recreations. For this same reason, it was expected that Call Of Duty Vanguard (November 2021) would be a historical and warlike work of art, surpassing previous installments also integrated within the world context of World War II, such as: Call of Duty (2003), Call of Duty II (2005), Call of Duty III (2006), Call of Duty: Word at War (2008), Call of Duty: WWII (2017).
The game's main story takes place at the end of World War II, just as the Germany Nazi is about to lose the war, spanning four different front lines, focusing on the Pacific War, the Western and Eastern Fronts, and the North African campaign. One of the multiple purposes of the game is to present the untold stories of great real heroes of the period, such as Sidney Cornell, Liudmila Pavlichenko, Vernon Mitchell and Charles Upham.
If it is true that the Call of Duty saga is known worldwide for its stories and gameplay, what makes it the best shooter saga in the world is the level of weapons and its usability.
On this occasion, Call of Duty Vanguard presented 14 assault rifles, 10 submachine guns, 4 shotguns, 6 light machine guns, 5 sniper rifles, 4 tactical rifles, 6 pistols, 5 rocket launchers and various melee weapons and special mobile artillery. An ode to the weapons power of the Second World War.
