Xbox closed out their main showcase with a look at Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4 and its DMZ extraction mode, set to launch as part of the full game bundle on 23rd October 2026.
Modern Warfare 4 will see war reignite in the Korean peninsula, as North invades South, no doubt dragging America and maybe even China into the war. Certainly Captain Price has something to say about it with Task Force 141, but it’s not as clear cut as all that.
Traditionally the single player campaign in the game will have the arena multiplayer alongside, and Warzone will remain a free-to-play game alongside. However, DMZ is joining the premium package.
This will let you deploy solo or in a squad to a conflict zone, tasked with recovering military technology in the wake of the war. With changing weather, dynamic objectives and hostile forces you’ll have to get in, get the tech and get back out.
DMZ could be a great take on the extraction shooter, and will certainly bring it to the broadest audience yet, even as Arc Raiders has proven to be a major hit last year, and Marathon proved to be more of a cult hit so far.
