How to get the IR Beacon on Ashika Island in DMZ

In Call of Duty DMZ, you'll need to find various specific items while completing different faction missions. The IR Beacon is one of these items, and you'll need it to complete the Look Out mission for the White Lotus faction. After acquiring the IR Beacon, you must place and activate it at a certain location to complete the mission. Naturally, players need to know where to find this item, and how to activate it, so here's how to get the IR Beacon on Ashika Island in DMZ.

How to complete the Look Out mission in DMZ

The Look Out is a Tier 1 White Lotus faction mission, and it has two specific objectives you need to complete on Ashika Island. First, you must retrieve an IR Beacon from the northern coast of the map. Once that's done, you need to plant the IR Beacon on the roof of Ashika Castle. Ashika Castle is the Tsuki Castle POI (point of interest), located at the center of the map. Here are the objectives you'll see in-game for the Look Out mission.

• Take the IR Beacon left on the rocks off the northern coast of Ashika Island
• Plant the IR Beacon on the roof of Ashika Castle

DMZ: IR Beacon Location on Ashika Island

The IR Beacon is located on a small rocky island out in the open water at the northernmost edge of the map on Ashika Island. This small island is located on the E1 coordinate; you can check the yellow circle on the map image above to see the exact location you'll need to visit. You can use an RHIB, an Armor Patrol Boat, or a Jet Ski to quickly move across the water and reach this spot. Once you are there, collect the IR Beacon to complete the first objective in the Look Out mission.

Where to place the IR Beacon on Ashika Island in DMZ

The IR Beacon needs to be placed on top of the Tsuki Castle—one of the most dangerous POIs on the map. Tsuki Castle is located at the center of the Ashika Island map—a high-level threat area full of enemy AI forces. The AI bots are tough as they wear body armor, so ideally, you want to avoid fighting and reach the top of the biggest house at Tsuki Castle. You can scale the tallest building by climbing up the ladders on the southern side; once on the top, stand near the flag, and you'll see a prompt appearing that shows the place IR Beacon. Interact and place the IR Beacon on top to complete the Look Out mission.
