Modern Warfare 4 | DMZ has its own unique Prestige system that’s not tied to your Player Level like in Multiplayer. Below, we’ll share details on how you can reach Prestige via the Dog Tags and Trait Points system, how to unlock each rank of Prestige, and the rewards you can obtain for each one so you know exactly what you’re doing.
How to Prestige in DMZ
In order to Prestige in DMZ, you must first earn 18 Trait Points. These Trait Points are tied to your active Operator’s Dog Tags and earned through DMZ Player XP, which in itself is separate from your DMZ Player Level progression. You will need to get your Dog Tags from Steel I to Onyx III, and only then will you be able to Prestige.
If your Operator is killed and you fail to recover or repurchase their Dog Tags, then you will have to start the Prestige grind again!
What Does DMZ Prestige Do (& What Do You Lose/Gain)?
Once you have the Onyx III Dog Tags, you can sacrifice the required gear and DMZ Cash to enter Prestige. Your DMZ Level will not reset, but your 18 Trait Tree Points will.
By hitting Prestige, you will be awarded a Permanent Prestige Trait, randomly selected from the available Trait pool. This Permanent Prestige Trait is always active for your Operator, even if they are killed or dismissed.
All DMZ Prestige Levels & Rewards
Each DMZ Prestige has its own requirements once you reach 18 Trait Points, and you can find the full list of requirements and rewards below:
|
Prestige Level |
Requirements |
Reward |
|---|---|---|
|
DMZ Prestige 1 |
Two Weapons with x3 Attachment Slots One Plate Carrier (Rare Rarity) One Backpack (Rare Rarity) Four 3D Printer Ingredients (Rare Rarity) 200,000 DMZ Cash |

DMZ Prestige 3+ |
Two Weapons with x3 Attachment Slots One Plate Carrier (Legendary Rarity) One Backpack (Legendary Rarity) Four 3D Printer Ingredients (Legendary Rarity) 500,000 DMZ Cash |

Each DMZ Prestige rewards a random Permanent Prestige Trait, so if you’re not happy with the Random Prestige Trait you obtained, then simply Prestige again, as the system is designed to be infinite. However, you can only have three Permanent Prestige Traits active at once.
