Gunsmith Customs in Modern Warfare are coming back and in a big way in the Call of Duty: Modern Warfare Season 3 update that went live Wednesday.

Gunsmith Customs allow players to customize and mix their different blueprints in Modern Warfare to craft a unique weapon with its own set of strengths and weaknesses. Here's everything we know so far about the plans for Gunsmith Customs in Season 3.

Gunsmith Customs Modern Warfare Return

Players have many reasons to be excited with the announcement of more Gunsmith Customs in Season 3 of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare. There are already plans to release three new blueprints for weapons in Warzone and Modern Warfare at the start of Season 3: the "Cerastes," a handgun blueprint, the "Beefeater," an assault rifle blueprint, and the "Witching Hour," a sniper rifle blueprint.

According to the Season 3 Patch Notes post by Activision, there will also be two new weapons with plenty of unique Gunsmith customizations: the SKS, a semi-automatic carbine rifle, and the Renetti, a semi-automatic 9mm pistol.

These changes to weapons and Gunsmith Customs are accompanied by a host of new maps and plans for a few new Operators, along with the addition of Quads to Warzone and new Modern Warfare Season 3 Trials.

The Modern Warfare Season 3 Trials will now have four different events, including a Gun Course, Risky Parkour, Shooting Range, and Marksman Challenge. The Trials span across several maps and each comes with their own unique sets of challenges for players to overcome. Though, having a Gunsmith Custom weapon will make it a bit easier once the Gunsmith Customs hit live servers later in the season.
