MW4 DMZ. Modes, camos, extraction

DMZ Early Access opens Tuesday 20 October 2026 for every digital pre-order or pre-purchase of Standard or Vault. Campaign, Multiplayer, and DMZ then share Friday 23 October 2026 for everyone. DMZ is in the premium game.

Season 1 is when Warzone integrates MW4 content. Hajin also arrives in Battle Royale then. The Season 1 calendar day is still blank.

You extract to keep progress between matches. Official pages print 0 extract timers, 0 extract counts, and 0 vehicle types. Co-op in the editions FAQ is 2-player split-screen Multiplayer on Xbox Series and PlayStation 5. That line is 0 DMZ squad-size spec.

Zombies is a Black Ops 7 mode. Official MW4 pillars are Campaign, Multiplayer, and DMZ. Special Ops is unused on the 2026 MW4 pages read 20 September.

Reserve hours on DMZ missions. A pro starts on 20 October on a digital pre-order, or on 23 October. Helio lives on the camo guide and the DMZ camo shelf.

Official pages print 0 loot table for Hajin. A reserved session follows the live client that day.

Hajin Exclusion Zone sits after the Campaign. You deploy into a living combat world: Story Missions, Dynamic Operations, player encounters, and match-to-match progression. Solo or a squad. You extract to keep what that match earned.

Hajin is the named DMZ map. Official pages print 0 other DMZ map names. Hajin also comes to Battle Royale in Season 1.

Ground War Combat Outpost sat on Hajin in the August test with 2 named slices: Imjin Farmland and Wolves Stadium. Those are Ground War spaces. They are 0 extra DMZ map announcements.

Zodiac is a Resurgence map from Beenox. It sat in the 2nd public test weekend. Zodiac is Warzone. It stays off this DMZ list.

The 12 core 6v6 maps are Multiplayer. They stay off this list too. Maps: maps. Warzone: Warzone integration.

The Exclusion Zone is the aftermath of the Campaign. That is why Campaign Early Access on 16 October leaves this mode closed until 20 October. The story on Hajin starts after that Campaign is in the world.

Dynamic weather is printed on independent fall-2026 coverage. Official pages name the Exclusion Zone and leave a weather spec off. This page therefore prints 0 weather table.

A deployment on Hajin can be a Story Mission, a Dynamic Operation, or a player encounter. You extract to keep match-to-match progress. Official pages print 0 mission-tree titles and 0 operation names beyond those 2 labels.

Vault buyers get a DMZ Deployment Bonus. The loot list on that bonus is still blank. Treat it as a later kit, 0 starter loadout you can list today.

Create-a-Class still matters when you deploy. The launch weapon count is 33. Class-shared attachments. Apex sits at 28 on a max gun level. Axion and Sang 9mm are Multiplayer default-loadout guns. Wz. 55 Striga is Campaign Mission only. Those 3 are poor plans for a DMZ grind unless the launch client changes those gates. Weapons: weapons.

Older DMZ seasons used a timer, a backpack, insured weapons, and faction missions. Those are 0 MW4 patch notes. If the live client reprints them, the live client wins.

Match-to-match progression means a successful extraction keeps the progress that match earned. A failed extraction drops that match. Official pages print 0 backpack size and 0 insured-slot count. They also print 0 wallet or currency name.

If you want hours reserved, say Hajin and the kind of work: Story Missions, Dynamic Operations, or open deployments. A pro starts when the servers open. The live client names win if those labels change on 23 October.

Each weapon has a Camo Track in DMZ. 3 mastery camos sit in this mode. 9 masteries sit across Multiplayer, DMZ, and Warzone.

The beta client printed Chiral, then Ripple Tide, then Helio. Official pages lock the 3-per-mode count and leave those 3 names off the pages read 20 September. This page keeps the beta-client names so a buyer can say Helio in chat.

Official pages print 0 per-weapon challenge counts and 0 extraction counts for the next mastery. A gun you never take into DMZ will not finish Helio on that gun. Orion Reforged is the Multiplayer finish on the beta client. Empyros is the Warzone finish and waits for Season 1. Full 9-track map: mastery camos.

The DMZ camo product is a separate shelf from hourly missions. Say Helio if you want the track. Say hours if you want deployments on Hajin.

Mastery camos are 3 per mode and 9 in total. A gun that finishes Helio still has Orion Reforged and Empyros as separate tracks. Buying Helio on 1 gun is 0 promise that the Multiplayer or Warzone finishes come with it.

16 October is Campaign Early Access for digital Standard or Vault. That Friday leaves DMZ closed. Multiplayer stays closed. Warzone stays closed.

20 October (Tuesday) opens all of DMZ for the same digital pre-orders on Xbox Series X|S, Xbox on PC, PlayStation 5, Battle.net, Steam, and Nintendo Switch 2. Multiplayer waits for 23 October.

23 October opens DMZ for everyone with the rest of the premium game. You deploy on Hajin when that mode is live. Read the in-game Camo Track before you grind a challenge that might be extractions. 6v6 kills is a separate case.

Zombies stays a Black Ops 7 mode on the pages read today. A later MW4 season post would update this page. Season 1 printed additions are Warzone integration, Zodiac, and Hajin in Battle Royale.

Ranked Play is still undated. A tactical-nuke threshold is still blank on official MW4 pages. Calendar: release date.

Preload opens Wednesday 14 October at 9 PM PT on every platform, 6 days before DMZ Early Access. You pick which content to install. Install size depends on the platform and the content you pick.

Own the premium game on a listed platform. PlayStation 5, Xbox Series, PC, and Switch 2. PlayStation 4 and last-gen Xbox consoles stay off the platform list. Game Pass at launch is a no.

PC needs TPM 2.0 and Secure Boot. An Activision account is required. A mobile phone number may be required. RICOCHET is listed as live in MW4. Accounts under a permanent Activision restriction since Modern Warfare (2019) may be ineligible. Accounts under a permanent Battle.net restriction cannot play online.

Every order is hand-played or piloted by a human Pro, with no cheats and no 3rd-party tools.

Reserve extraction hours on DMZ missions. If the product you want is Helio on the armory, say that in chat. The camo row and the hourly row are different scopes.

Xbox Play Anywhere means 1 digital purchase on the Xbox Series store or the Xbox on PC store unlocks both. That purchase still has to be the premium game. A disc stays off both Early Access lists and waits for 23 October for DMZ.

33 launch weapons. 12 core 6v6 maps. 17 launch killstreaks. Those 3 counts sit on official pages. Killstreaks wait with Multiplayer. They are 0 DMZ extract kit.
