Infinity Ward, the developer of Warzone 2, has announced a nerf to the KV Broadside shotgun in response to community concerns about the weapon’s overpowered performance with Dragon’s Breath rounds. The weapon has become a popular choice among players, with a 12.7% pick rate in the game, but many have criticized its ability to take down enemies in just two shots.
The developers have acknowledged these concerns and have announced that the upcoming Season 2 Reloaded update will include several global weapon balances, including a damage reduction to the KV Broadside and the Dragon’s Breath rounds. The full patch notes for the update will be released on March 15, giving players time to adjust their strategies and loadouts accordingly.

While some community members have criticized the developers for taking too long to address the issue, it’s important to remember that game balancing is a complex process that requires careful consideration and testing. It’s good to see that the developers are creating a more balanced and enjoyable gameplay experience for all players, and it will be interesting to see how the changes affect the Warzone 2 meta.
