- — In-game description
The XMG is a heavy weapon in Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare.
Multiplayer
The XMG is a pair of automatic heavy machine guns, one wielded on each arm. A "lockdown" mode on the exoskeleton is available to maximum stability and accuracy at the cost of no movement, essentially making the user a human turret. The high rate of fire allows for powerful close quarters firepower, however without the laser sight attachment, the player will struggle to hit anything out of close quarters, and even with it, the player can barely hit farther then a shotgun unless entrenched. When the player entrenches the reticule tightens dramatically, allowing the player to out range SMGs, at the cost for movement, however the bullets can still stray off target even in entrenched mode.
The XMG are mounted on the underside of the user's forearm. When entrenched, the barrels extend and fire faster. The weapon model shows an optic attachment on each gun, but they are unusable by the player, as the XMGs are always dual wielded.
