Why is Call of Duty Warzone better?

When Warzone released in 2019, fans got to see a very grounded approach to a Battle Royale game.

The weapons from Modern Warfare are very varied compared to Blackout, with lots of different options and loadout classes. It has its issues with weapon balancing, but when done correctly, the game feels competitive and entertaining to play. Players also get cross-play with other platforms and along with it the game is free as well.
