MW4 DMZ Hajin Map: Every POI and Threat Level

Updated

Hajin is DMZ's map: an exclusion zone on the former border between North and South Korea, with more than 60 named locations. North Korean wilderness, a prison and an air base fill the west; South Korean farmland, villages and a nuclear reactor fill the north and east; and Hajin City, with a mall, a stadium and the fortified Grid, sits in the south-east.

Every POI has an expected threat level, from Low to Extreme, which is how hard it is before you start a fight. The table lists all 13 major POIs from Activision's Hajin guide with the threat level of each named area. The map grid runs letters west to east and numbers north to south (D7 is Imjin Farmland), and every key's description gives a grid square.

Keys, Compounds and Radiation

Keys

Keys open special loot rooms. Every key's description gives a grid square on the Tac-Map, and you can keep keys in your Stash between runs. Activision's field stories describe a key taken from a Lieutenant that opened a sealed room under NuriGO Mall, with a recipe, rare components and a weapon manual inside.

Compounds and hidden areas

Compounds are small and medium fortified military positions with better loot and intel and heavy resistance; Activision suggests a quiet approach. It also hints at secrets: a door locked from the inside usually has another way in, and rural woods hide underground entrances.

Radiation

The Haneul Nuclear Reactor sits in a radioactive cloud, worst inside the reactor itself. Activision says you need radiological protective gear and a gas mask there; Fire Stations are where to look for radiation gear, and radiation blockers are a consumable. Separately, the radiation storm spreads across the whole map as the match goes on.
