MW4 DMZ Missions and Orders Guide

Plan Hajin Story Missions and DMZ Orders, with walkthroughs for Critical Extraction, Fallen Ember, and Ears Everywhere.

Pick a deployment type

The FOB Deploy menu offers Story Missions, Dynamic Operations, and Free Roam. Side Ops are additional activities you can take on in Hajin. Read the brief and check the objectives before committing your kit.

  • Story Missions follow the DMZ narrative. The briefing shows objectives and available rewards, and the menu lets you replay missions.
  • Dynamic Operations send the squad into a multi-step operation. Call of Duty lists cash, XP, and squad Supply Drops as rewards, with higher drop rarity as operations are completed.
  • Free Roam lets you deploy without a selected mission. Use it when your priority is exploration, gathering materials, or working on an active Order.

Start Dynamic Ops in Hajin and chain Supply Drops

Choose a Dynamic Operation before deploying or activate a Dynamic Ops phone in Hajin. Complete the objective and secure the squad Supply Drop. The official launch guide lists Common, Uncommon and Rare drops as you complete successive operations in the same run. Drop contents vary.

Side Ops can fit around an existing objective. Look for activities such as lost Supply Drops or damaged trucks, or use a Lieutenant Hunt tower to get intel. If you pick Hunt Operators from the Dynamic Ops list, plan for a fight against a rival squad. Choose an active exfil before taking a second objective.

Review DMZ Orders at the FOB

The DMZ Orders station shows ongoing directives, arranged into Pages, with their completion requirements and rewards. Orders can teach a mode mechanic, advance the narrative, or grant supplies, cash, and progression. Your active Orders are also visible during deployment.

Suggested squad plan: read each player’s Order requirements before selecting a Story Mission. Pair an Order with the mission when they use the same area or equipment. Confirm whether the Order calls for extracting a specific item before a teammate sells, consumes, or carries it.

Choose a Hajin walkthrough

Select a Story Mission from Deploy and read its briefing before you ready up. Use the DMZ Orders station to check which Order objectives are active for your Operator.

  • Operation Critical Extraction (Story Mission): escort General Kang through Mirae General Hospital to the roof.
  • Operation Fallen Ember (Story Mission): bring radiation protection to Haneul Nuclear Reactor and follow the fuel rod objectives.
  • Ears Everywhere (DMZ Order): hack a broadcast system and collect its logs at Cheonwang Peak Array.

Plan the objective and the exit together

After spawning, check the objective marker, radiation, timer, and available exits on the Tac-Map. Briefings and in-game markers give the run-specific information that you need to adjust your approach.

Suggested route order: choose the required objective first, plan an exit, then add one nearby optional activity if time and armor allow. Once you have the required item or completion, check the HUD and move toward extraction before taking another fight.
