This guide explains where to find the Crane Control Room location after getting the key in Warzone DMZ.

Warzone 2.0 launched last month after a huge amount of speculation and anticipation. Players are now exploring Al Mazrah and getting to grips with everything it offers.

The revamped Call of Duty battle royale mode has changed the game in a number of ways by introducing new features such as the re-jigged looting system, the 2v2 gulag, and the split circle.

More subtle changes like reduced time-to-kill, aggressive AI, and the introduction of two and three plate armor vests have also mixed things up. And all these changes have resulted in a mixed reaction from players. Some love it, and others really don’t.

Still, one new feature that has received almost universal praise is the new DMZ game mode.

DMZ is Call of Duty‘s take on survival looter-shooter Escape from Tarkov. And while Warzone players didn’t know what to make of it at first, it is picking up in popularity as the weeks go on.

DMZ drops squads of up to three players into random locations around Al Mazrah. The aim of the game is to collect as much valuable loot and weaponry as you can before extracting within the given time-limit.

One sure-fire way to get yourself some valuable loot is to make use of the many keys scattered around Al Mazrah.

The keys unlock special loot caches that can range from individual lockers to rooms to entire points of interest.

However, when you get a key for the first time, the game doesn’t offer you any indication of where to find the cache that it unlocks. As a result, players are left asking what to do with Warzone DMZ keys.

One such key is the Crane Control Room key. So, let’s go over where to find the Crane Control Room location in Warzone DMZ…

Warzone DMZ Key: Where To Find Crane Control Room Location

As mentioned, there are a lot of keys to collect in Warzone DMZ. But finding what they unlock isn’t easy.

The ones for specific points of interests come with a small icon that matches a location on the map. This makes them easier than the others.

However, the keys for smaller caches are left a mystery. And players have to hope they randomly stumble across them.

Thankfully, once you’ve discovered a cache for the first time, the game adds map coordinates to the key’s description. This makes it easy to find that specific cache again. But this doesn’t help you on your initial search.

The Crane Control Room is located in the northern part of Al-Safwa Quarry. It can be found at map coordinates ‘B3’ southwest of the stronghold.

As usual, there are AI enemies on patrol in the area. Approach with caution to avoid them overwhelming you.

Once you’ve located the Crane Control Room, use the key to unlock the door and enter.
