Like the Battlefield franchise, Call of Duty: WW2 is looking to shake up the current state of the franchise by taking things back to its roots. This year’s edition takes players back to World War II and focuses more on dealing with the horrors of war rather than being a super soldier taking on an entire army. Many staples of the franchise are getting overhauled such as regenerating health, forcing players to rely on teammates to restore health and ammo. With a renewed focus on realism and authenticity, Sledgehammer is also cutting back on certain over the top elements such as weapon camouflage.

In response to a fan on Twitter, Sledgehammer Games co-founder, Michael Condrey, revealed that weapon camos are going to be a bit more traditional in Call of Duty: WW2 than in previous games. While the studio also played around with potential animated weapon camo for the multiplayer modes, none could be found that kept the world from being immersive and believable. As such, animated weapon camo, present in previous games, have been removed entirely, and players will only find authentic weapon camo available inside the game.

We haven't found an animated camo for MP that achieves those goals. Consequently, there are no animated camos in MP currently (2/2)
