The Call of Duty League is officially back on LAN.
The last CDL LAN event wrapped up on March 8, 2020. And now, 466 days later, the league is transitioning from online play to LAN for the 2021 Stage Four Major.
The Stage Four Major will be held at the Esports Stadium in Arlington, Texas from June 17 to 20. All 12 Call of Duty League teams will battle it out in this $500,000 double-elimination tournament. The champion will take home $200,000 and 75 CDL Points to try to solidify their place in the top eight of the league’s standings to qualify for the end-of-season playoffs, CoD Champs.
The 12 CDL franchises played online group play matches for the last three weeks to determine their seeding for the Stage Four Major. The top three teams in each group will begin the first LAN event of the year in the winners bracket, while the bottom three squads will immediately have to fight for their tournament life in the losers bracket.
