Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4 | DMZ Early Access Gameplay Trailer

The comments under Call of Duty's DMZ trailer include a memory of unlocking the M13B Hazard and requests to give the mode a game of its own. For some viewers, the reference point is still their time in the earlier DMZ, not the next multiplayer match.

“Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4 | DMZ Early Access Gameplay Trailer” reached about 2.3 million views in its first 12 hours, far beyond the official channel's usual start for a short upload. The announcement puts DMZ early access on October 20, with story missions, new threats and rewards in the description.

The surrounding videos give that brief pitch more substance. Story missions send players across DMZ to gather intelligence, complete objectives and piece together a larger narrative. A separate bounty-system preview introduces another complication in Hajin: an operator's actions can put a price on their head.

That mix fits DMZ's extraction-mode roots, where getting out with your loot matters alongside the shooting. Among the comments, one viewer imagines a separate game combining DMZ and Zombies; another wishes DMZ could simply be bought separately. The trailer is an introduction to the new version, but those requests are about giving the mode a home of its own.
