COD MW4 Stranded Codes & Locked Areas
MW4 Campaign, Stranded; Polygon’s October 21, 2026 guide. These are puzzle answers, not promotion codes or store keys.
The eight Stranded keypad answers in Ford James’s original guide are 0024, 0600, 1234, 6789, 0330, 8609, 0008 and 0078. Match the lock’s landmark and clue in the table before entering a number: the small-island container and the hidden island bunker are different locks. Leading zeros are part of the four-digit answer.
Find the lock you are standing beside
On a small screen, scroll the table sideways to read every column.
| Lock / landmark | Code | Clue / rule | Reported contents |
|---|---|---|---|
| Pylon outside Base Camp | 0024 | Previous codes rise by 6 | Supplies and a map of other keypads |
| Cliff near Base Camp | 0600 | Broken stairs; subtract 2900 from the previous entry | Yellow supply crate |
| Big Sign container | 1234 | Replace the next zero with the next digit | Supplies and yellow supply crate |
| Small-island container | 6789 | Island guard tower; each sequence moves one along | Yellow supply crate |
| Farm Field bunker | 0330 | Sum logistics-station outpost numbers | Supplies and a note about crate contents |
| South of Jamming Station | 8609 | Digit changes: +1, −1, unchanged, +2 | Yellow supply crate |
| North of the bunker objective | 0078 | Add 22 to the preceding code | Yellow supply crate |
Use landmarks before coordinates
The pylon is directly outside Base Camp. The nearby cliff lock is reached using broken stairs. The small-island container is associated with a guard tower; the hidden island bunker is described in the southwest by a small stream. Their similar names do not make their codes interchangeable.
Packet sources disagree by one grid unit for the Big Sign and Farm Field locations. This lookup therefore uses the original guide’s named landmarks and clue rules rather than displaying one disputed coordinate as exact.
What opening a lock establishes
The original guide reports supplies, notes and yellow supply crates behind the listed locks. It also says the yellow-crate item sequence is tied to the order of opening crates, rather than assigning a fixed reward to each physical location. Do not promise a specific gun solely from a lock’s position.
The Big Sign, Farm Field and hidden island bunker pages explain their different clue types.
Puzzle answers, reward codes and keys
These keypad numbers are entered at locks inside the Campaign mission. Monster promotion codes are private, account-bound promotional inputs; a store key is used through its supported purchase platform. None of those inputs can substitute for another.
