The best Warzone 2 LMG is a topic of conversation bound to cause plenty of debate as players drop into Call of Duty's latest battle royale offering. Alongside a brand-new map to explore, Infinity Ward adds a new weapon arsenal for players to master.

With six LMGs available in the Warzone 2 arsenal, there's a high possibility one or two will stand out from the crowd. After performing a little testing, the early frontrunners are the Sakin MG38 and the RAAL MG.
Of course, these are just the early stages of the battle royale as players continue to drop into Al Mazrah. As the seasons progress, we'll continue tweaking our LMG tier list to reflect the popularity of each one.
Are LMGs good in Warzone 2?
Although they come with a high damage output, the lack of mobility hinders the performance of anyone attempting to make an impact with an LMG as part of their loadout.
However, with the right set of attachments equipped to increase movement speed and maintain a low level of recoil, we are seeing LMGs skyrocket in popularity as the meta continues to evolve.
That's everything there is to know about the best Warzone 2 LMG to use as soon as the battle royale launches.
