COD: Mobile Tier List: Best Weapons

The fifth season of COD: Mobile, officially dubbed "Get Wrecked" (2023), has arrived. And with that, the game is getting some fresh features and important adjustments that will affect the established meta we saw in Season 4: Veiled Uprising. We have some significant nerfs and buffs applied to a variety of weapons, ARs in particular, that will force you to reevaluate which assault rifle you are going to use in the upcoming season. This is because players are paying attention to the OTs 9 and Makarov weapons, hybrid mode, the new map, Arsenal, and other such additions.

As such, here is the weapon tier list for COD: Mobile Season 5 (2023), listing the best and worst guns. However, keep in mind that we haven't considered attachments while ranking as they might affect the performance of the guns.
