Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4 DMZ Review So Far
This bigger and better version of DMZ makes a great first impression.
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4's DMZ mode is a new extraction shooter mode that has made a strong first impression since its launch. The mode features a fictional Korean region called Hajin, with urban areas separated by rocky forests. The map is large and players can only see a fraction of it in their approximately half-hour runs.
The mode encourages exploration through Dynamic Operations, which are spontaneous missions that increase in difficulty as the player progresses. Completing these missions rewards players with loot, with the value escalating based on the number of missions successfully completed. The mode features tense battles with enemy patrols, helicopters, and other NPCs, making every step and round take on increased importance.
While the gunplay is top-tier, the weapons themselves feel somewhat generic and lack distinct identities. Overall, DMZ feels like a modern trend in the extraction shooter genre, with Call of Duty's top-tier military shooter gunplay fitting in perfectly.
