Key information
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4 features the DMZ extraction shooter mode, which takes place in the contaminated city of Hajin, Korea, following an invasion of South Korea by North Korea and an attack on a nuclear power plant. Activision aims for the mode to stand out as a major extraction shooter.
Players manage their operators, train at the firing range, check missions, and purchase or 3D-print gear using extracted blueprints and resources at their base of operations. The mode includes a progression system allowing players to unlock items up to level 70, alongside leaderboards tracking dangerous PvP opponents.
The gameplay loop involves deploying into the zone, looting resources, fighting enemies in PvP or PvE, and escaping with the loot. Dynamic DMZ events feature boss and mini-boss hunts across 14 points of interest, while players can use wheeled, propeller, and rail vehicles to navigate areas with dynamic threat levels.
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4 is scheduled for release on October 23 on PC, PS5, Xbox Series, and Switch 2, with Activision dedicating the week to further news regarding the DMZ mode.
