Hajin Map: Warzone and DMZ (Modern Warfare 4)
Hajin is Modern Warfare 4's map on the Korean Peninsula. It's the DMZ extraction zone and, from Warzone Season 1 on November 6, a Battle Royale map. The 13 major points of interest are the same in both modes. How you play them isn't.
The map image is the DMZ Tac Map, so it shows the radiation zone around Haneul Nuclear Reactor. The Warzone Battle Royale version has no radioactive cloud there.

Hajin in Warzone
Hajin joins Warzone as a Battle Royale map with Season 1 on November 6. It's the first time Warzone has gone to the Korean Peninsula, with fights on both sides of the border.
Weather changes every match
Each deployment can roll a different weather pattern: clear skies, fog, wind, rain or distant storms. The weather is local, so one part of the map can look different from another. Activision says the developers worked to keep visibility central in every weather, but you still have to adjust where you land and how you rotate.
City or open ground
Hajin City's central districts have tall buildings, barricaded roads and fortified positions that reward squads who move together. Rural areas like Imjin Farmland are exposed, so fights there are long range and cover decides them.
The Hajin Gulag
Your first elimination sends you to one of two Gulag layouts for a 1v1. Both are open to the weather, and you can mantle most of the cover, so aggressive movement pays.
Where you'll play it
Battle Royale and Battle Royale Casual run on Hajin, with Verdansk returning later in Season 1. Massive Resurgence also plays on Hajin with up to 120 players, and it's the easiest way to learn the map because you keep coming back.
Not the DMZ version
The 13 POIs are the same, but Battle Royale has its own Edge Circle and gas movement, no radioactive cloud at Haneul Nuclear Reactor, a different set of vehicles, and a different spread of interactable objects and loot caches. A DMZ route doesn't carry over as is.
Vehicles
Vehicles in Warzone don't need repairs or fuel, unlike DMZ, and the Battle Royale version of Hajin has its own set of them.

Hajin in DMZ
In DMZ, Hajin is the Exclusion Zone: an open, persistent extraction map where you loot, run Operations, fight AI forces and rival squads, and keep only what you get out with. Activision counts over 60 named locations around the 13 major POIs.
Exfils
Exfils open from a pool of locations and are marked with green smoke. Call the helicopter and hold the site until it lands. Exfil flares are loud and visible from far away, and other squads use exfils as ambush points.
Lieutenants and Commanders
Lieutenants hold known territories, and picking up their Dog Tag Case shows your position to every Operator. Commanders (Colossus, Deathstalker and a main NK battle tank) roam the map.
Threat Level
Every POI has its own Threat Level, from Low to Extreme. Going loud raises it and brings heavier reinforcements. Breaking contact, staying in cover and moving away calms it down.
Radiation
A radiation storm intensifies as the deployment runs on, and a radioactive cloud sits over Haneul Nuclear Reactor. Watch the timer and get to an exfil before the zone becomes too hostile to survive.
Buildings worth knowing
Building colour tells you what's inside. Blue Police Stations hold military gear and a locked Armory, red Fire Stations hold Radiation Gear and Parachutes, and green Clinics hold medical loot.
Vehicles
Vehicles in DMZ need repairs and fuel at Gas Stations. The train and the Hajin City tram run their own routes and nobody drives them.
