Infinity Ward’s October 21 launch patch notes include a Campaign progression fix in Counter Attack’s Hotel sequence. No Stranded keypad revision is described in the reviewed notes. This is a reported fix for that sequence, not confirmation that every Campaign issue is resolved.

Activision says Modern Warfare 4 is not included with Game Pass at launch. Its October 15 announcement places Game Pass inclusion in Holiday 2027, so a subscription alone does not provide launch access.

The official launch specifications list 115 GB of SSD storage, TPM 2.0 and Secure Boot. Additional update space may be needed. Compare the complete CPU, GPU and memory requirements in the publisher’s PC guide before buying or installing.
Official PC specifications and preloading information ↗The publisher notes that Early Access play times can vary with time zones, outages and platform availability. Use the official platform listing for the applicable access details.
Activision lists TPM 2.0 and Secure Boot as required for MW4 on PC; players without them are restricted from online modes. Its updated support guide offers the Call of Duty Secure Attestation Wizard 1.3.0, released 21 October, to check your configuration.
You can also inspect TPM status with tpm.msc and check msinfo32 for BIOS Mode UEFI and Secure Boot State On. If the game keeps requesting TPM registration despite enabled settings, the guide includes BIOS firmware troubleshooting. Follow your hardware manufacturer’s instructions before changing firmware or boot settings; an incorrect change can prevent Windows from starting.

Stranded is an explorable campaign mission with supply containers, hidden bunkers, and notes that explain their keypad puzzles. CODMunity’s mission guide provides wider mission context.
For a locked door or container, use the clipboard title and surrounding landmark to match the correct entry in our Stranded code table. The Small Island container and Island Hidden Bunker are separate locations.
Campaign overview · mission names only
Stranded is mission 10. Its keypad guide is available below; the other mission names provide campaign orientation. We currently cover Stranded’s locks and have not published walkthroughs for the other missions.
The official campaign announcement confirms 16 missions. Names and order were cross-checked against KeenGamer · Rafly Wibowo and Modern Warfare Wiki on .
Available guide · Stranded
Six supply containers and two hidden bunkers. Search by landmark, filter by lock type, and copy a source-checked code without losing its leading zeroes.
Open Stranded codesGo straight to your lock
The MW4 Stranded code table covers 6 shipping containers and 2 hidden bunkers. Choose a location below to open its map area, visible landmark, clue explanation, and source video. All eight entries stay readable without using the search or copy controls.
Each shipping container has its own clipboard title and number sequence. Match that title before entering a code: a village, cliff, and island can contain several structures, but the named clipboard identifies the relevant lock.
For a note asking what comes next, paste its three numbers into the Stranded code finder, or open the number-pattern explanations to follow each step. Keep four digits when you copy an answer; leading zeroes are part of the keypad entry.
These two locks use sums described by their notes. Farm Field refers to Logistics Station numbers; the Island bunker refers to the sum of Infantry Checkpoints along the river. Check the note at the entrance before choosing which calculation to follow.
Farm Field has a concrete doorway on the mainland, with a floor hatch inside; the Island bunker has a concrete entrance in the island cliff face. The Small Island shipping container is a different location farther north, with a separate clue and code.
For Stranded locations, start with the numbered location schematic, then match the named landmark and clipboard to the timestamped approach video in each entry. Base Camp is the reference point for the surrounding areas.
For a missing MW4 launch button in COD Home on Xbox on PC, Activision’s October 23 support update recommends installing any Modern Warfare 4 Content Packs missing from your setup. Its current advice is not limited to Content Pack 1. Also check Microsoft Store device management for the ten-device limit. We checked this guidance on October 24; the launch issue remains under investigation. These are troubleshooting checks, not a confirmed fix for every affected player.

No. Activision’s October 15 announcement says MW4 requires a separate purchase at launch and places Game Pass inclusion in Holiday 2027. See the linked official launch notes for the publisher’s terms.
Hajin extraction and competitive playlists have their own guides. Keep them separate from the campaign mission order and Stranded puzzles above.
We have not purchased or personally played MW4. Code entries are checked against original creators’ game footage and another published source. Each entry links its author, video time, clue, and check date. The Stranded guide pairs landmark directions with original gameplay to help identify each lock.
