It features a campaign mode with characters from multiple Allied countries fighting on the Western, Eastern, African and Pacific fronts.

The following weapons appear in the video game Call of Duty: Vanguard:

Overview

Like Modern Warfare and Black Ops Cold War before it, Vanguard uses the Gunsmith system for its weapon attachments and customisation.

Pistols

Colt M1911A1

A Colt M1911A1 appears in the trailer, used by an American pilot.

World War II Colt M1911A1 - .45 ACP. This was an issued U.S. Army pistol with parkerized finish, thus the official designation of M1911A1

Luger P08

A Luger P08 is seen in the reveal trailer.

Luger P08 - 9x19mm. This is a 1917 dated handgun, thus it is a World War One firearm.

Submachine Guns

MP40

German soldiers in the reveal trailer wield MP40s.

MP40 - 9x19mm

The MP40 held in first-person, as seen in the promotional art. Compared to previous depictions of the MP40 in the series, the player character holds the MP40 by the magazine well instead of grasping the magazine itself, which would make the weapon more prone to jamming.

Owen

The Owen Gun appears at the beginning of the trailer.

Owen Mk I - 9x19mm. This is an earlier version of the Owen gun, featuring a finned barrel, early wireframe stock (some wireframe stocks have a clip that holds an oil bottle), and solid trigger housing. The parkerized finish is a post-war refurbishment.

Sten Mk II

In the teaser, a Sten Mk II can be seen lying on the ground. It is also featured in the reveal trailer, appearing multiple times.

Sten Mk II - 9x19mm Parabellum

One of the characters in the trailer firing the Sten Mk II. Upon further examination, the rear sight appears to have been chopped in half. The few frames of it being fired it appears to be correctly depicted firing from an open bolt, however the bolt never moves forward to fire the round in the chamber for some reason. The bolt is erroneously modeled as an entire solid block extending to the back of the receiver, creating this goof where the bolt clips through the back of the receiver when firing. Also note that, for some reason, the buttplate is rotated 90 degrees.

Rifles

Mosin Nagant Rifle

A Mosin Nagant Rifle, most likely a M1891/30, can be seen equipped with ghillie netting and a PU scope in the teaser. It is also used by a Russian sniper in the reveal trailer to shoot a German soldier.
