World Series of Warzone: Schedule, prize pool, qualifiers, how to register and watch

The World Series of Warzone (WSOW) has just been announced by Activision.

The 2021 World Series of Warzone (WSOW) will feature four Warzone tournaments with the biggest prize pool to date - $300,000 per tournament!

There will be two Trios and two Duos tournaments, two per region (Europe and North America).

World Series of Warzone is a mix of an invitational and open event, with a portion of high-profile Call of Duty players and content creators being invited directly, while other teams will be determined through the open qualifiers.

Additionally, each of the 12 Call of Duty League teams can invite a squad of their choosing if they choose to do so.
