Where the The Citadel South Wing is
A walled detention complex on a cleared plateau in the North Korean wilderness, with watchtowers on every corner and a Y-shaped fortress called the Citadel in the middle of the yard.
The report places the The Citadel South Wing door in 14th Political Prison: the south wing of the Citadel. Our MW4 DMZ map marks 14th Political Prison itself, not this door, because the door has not been confirmed. Our grid overlay is approximate, and some reported grids fall outside it, so trust the grid printed on the key in your backpack.
Before you go to 14th Political Prison
- 14th Political Prison is rated up to Critical threat by Activision. Bring a full squad and plates, and plan the exfil before you open the door.
- Approach from the woods to the west and clear the watchtowers first; the yard is open ground.
- Treat the Citadel as its own deployment goal: bring plates, a squad and an exit route before you breach.
