Hyeon Burst Stats & Apex — MW4 Patch 1.0 / Oct 2026 Meta — Assault Rifle · unlocks at 21 · 68 levels to the Apex
The Hyeon Burst is a assault rifle running 375 RPM and 30-round magazine. It opens at player level 21 and needs 68 weapon levels before its Apex Attachment comes into play, the Hyeon Hyperburst. Inside the assault rifle class it is the 3rd to unlock out of 8, and its level track is the 5th longest of 8.
We do not run in-game tests. Values come from official statements cross-checked against community sources: This page publishes only the values that appear in the official progression table: class, slot, unlock level, max weapon level, fire rate, magazine size and the Apex Attachment. Per-slot attachment builds and damage readouts are not published for this weapon, so they are omitted rather than estimated. Method and limitations: /about.
Hyeon Burst Stats — MW4
| Weapon Class | Assault Rifle · Primary |
|---|---|
| Player Unlock Level | 21 Lv [OFFICIAL] |
| Max Weapon Level | 68 Lv [OFFICIAL] |
| Fire Rate | 375 RPM [OFFICIAL] |
| Magazine | 30 RDS [OFFICIAL] |
We publish no TTK figure for any MW4 weapon. Activision does not release TTK values, the public estimates disagree with each other, and we do not run in-game measurements — so the row is omitted rather than filled with a number we cannot stand behind.
Where the Hyeon Burst Sits Among Assault Rifles
Every number below is computed from the same table the rest of this site uses, so you can check it against the full weapon list rather than taking a ranking on faith. There are 8 weapons in the Assault Rifle class.
- Player unlock order
- 3rd of 8
- Later than Han 86 (4), M4 (14)
- Max weapon level
- 68
- 5th longest track in the class (class high: 72 on the Han 86)
- Fire rate
- 375 RPM
- 8th of 8
- Magazine
- 30 rounds
- 1st of 8 · 6 tie
Rank is not a verdict. A weapon that loses on fire rate can still be the right pick if its recoil pattern suits you, and this table deliberately stops at the figures that are published rather than inventing a composite score — a made-up score is how a lot of weapon tier lists end up disagreeing with the game.
Best Hyeon Burst Loadout — FAQ
Q1 What player level unlocks the Hyeon Burst? +
Level 21. That makes it the 3rd of 8 Assault Rifles to open, behind Han 86 (4), M4 (14). Create-a-Class itself unlocks at level 4, so nothing on this page is reachable before that.
Q2 How many weapon levels does the Hyeon Burst need to max? +
68. Within Assault Rifles that is the 5th longest track, against a class high of 72 on the Han 86. You only need the last level for the Apex Attachment; everything before it is attachments and camos.
Q3 What is the Hyeon Burst's Apex Attachment? +
Hyeon Hyperburst — Hyperburst triple-tap that rolls straight into full-auto. It unlocks at weapon level 68, does not consume a Gunsmith slot, and changes how the weapon behaves rather than nudging a stat. Hyeon Hyperburst is exclusive to this weapon: no other gun has it.
Q4 How does the Hyeon Burst rate against other Assault Rifles? +
At 375 RPM it is 8th of 8 on fire rate, and 1st of 8 on magazine size at 30 rounds (6 tie). Those are the two figures the official tables actually publish, which is why we rank on them and not on damage or TTK — Activision does not release a per-weapon damage table, and we do not measure in game.
Q5 Which weapons unlock at the same player level as the Hyeon Burst? +
The Hyeon Burst is the only weapon that unlocks at player level 21, so there is no bundle to plan around here.
Q6 How many camos does the Hyeon Burst have? +
15 in the weapon layer: 8 Military camos from weapon level, 3 Special camos from per-weapon challenges, and 4 Completionist stages (Gold, Platinum, Harmonic Break, Divergence). Progress is shared between Multiplayer and DMZ, and Warzone joins the same track in Season 1.
Q7 Is the Hyeon Burst progress shared across modes? +
Yes. Weapon levels, attachments and camo progress are one track that fills from Multiplayer and DMZ alike; Warzone joins it in Season 1. The only thing that splits by mode is the mastery camo tier, which sits above Divergence and has a separate set for each mode.
Q8 Is the Hyeon Burst one of the Vault Edition signature weapons? +
No. The Hyeon Burst is part of the standard launch arsenal, so it is unlocked through player level 21 like any other weapon and needs no edition or purchase.
Available from player level 21, finished at weapon level 68. If the Hyeon Hyperburst is what you are after, that is the number to plan around — everything before it is attachments and camos.
