Introducing DMZ: Recon Extraction mode
DMZ: Recon launches as the third major mode beside Multiplayer and Battle Royale, delivering extraction-based gameplay to players. Squads of three drop into one of two maps and engage in PvPvE combat. Touch down, engage enemies, gather valuable loot, and extract to secure rewards.
Deploy to the large Serpent Island or the tighter, indoor-focused Building 21. Complete Contracts, find new gear, and evade the expanding radiation. Extract before the match ends to secure progress. Serpent Island offers multiple zones inspired by fan-favorite Call of Duty maps, featuring a dense urban center, a freighter, and ancient rooftops supporting varied playstyles. Meanwhile, Building 21 spans three floors, delivering faster, more intense combat across garages, offices, restaurants, and laboratories.
As an extraction mode, players’ goal is to loot, extract, and grow stronger through successive deployments. Gain power by acquiring better Loadout items and completing Contracts like Bounty Squad and Most Wanted to earn resources, gear, and Perks. DMZ: Recon also adds over 20 new Weapon Camos earned by completing mode-specific challenges.
