The community buzz from the release of the #M1IRONS last week has been incredible.  It’s a super fun new primary that is proving to be a very competitive option for players. We've been in active exploration into bringing exciting new weapon options to Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare and we have a lot more to come ahead.  First up, we’re excited to bring new variants of the SAC3, an akimbo SMG that has been available to all players in Multiplayer since launch. The SAC3’s signature dual hand, high-rate of fire sub machine gun profile made it deadly for those who could forsake the aim down sights feature provided with standard SMGs.  Starting on 5/19, we’re introducing five new non-akimbo variants of the SAC3 available through both Supply Drops and Advanced Supply Drops on Xbox One (Coming soon to PS4 & PC). Each of these variants feature a new single weapon which allow players to ADS for precision targeting.  We can’t wait to hear your thoughts, and see the first person to post the new elite versions of this single hand weapon.

On 5/19 we’re also introducing the first wave of new Royalty Weapon elite variants to the game. These guns are clad in the same purple and gun-metal camouflage as the Grand Master Prestige armor, and have similar stats to some of the elite versions of weapons you already love. In addition, they all carry an extra starting clip, giving them more lead down field than their elite counterparts. Great stats, extra ammo, and a sick royalty camo – these are some of the hottest weapons you can get in Advanced Warfare.  Elite royalty weapons will be available through both Supply Drops and Advanced Supply Drops on Xbox One (Coming soon to PS4 & PC), with our first 10 favorites launching on May 19th. Grand Master Prestige with your favorite royalty elite – pure bragging rights!
