Call of Duty League 2023 Schedule

The Call of Duty League 2023 Schedule includes online qualifiers and LAN tournaments for five Majors and the Playoffs and main Championship 2023 event. The season will begin with the Opening Weekend in December before concluding in the latter half of the year.

As stated on the official Call of Duty League website, for this season, the qualifier weeks will consist of three weeks of online gameplay, with each team playing five games. Those three weeks will determine the seeding for the LAN matches at team-hosted major tournaments. The only Major that will differ from this is Major I at the Raleigh Convention Center, as there will be only two weeks of qualifiers with teams playing four matches each.

Major I will also see 16 teams rather than 12, as the Major I qualifier will see the top 3 teams from North America and Europe Challengers qualifiers and the winning teams from Asia Pacific and Latin America Challengers qualifiers compete for four spots in the main event Group Stage. The losing teams will compete in Challengers Open.

For anyone who hasn’t watched previous seasons of the Call of Duty League, you may be wondering if Paris Legion, Dallas Empire, OpTic Chicago or LA or Chicago Huntsmen are involved in the circuit.

OpTic Gaming Los Angeles was the fresh face for the Green Wall heading into the original Call of Duty League. 100 Thieves would go on to take their slot, while HECZ reacquired the OpTic brand in November 2020. The Chicago Huntsmen were then transformed into OpTic Chicago.

A merger between OpTic Gaming and Dallas Empire, run by Envy Gaming, Inc, saw the creation of OpTic Texas heading into the 2022 season.

c0ntact Gaming moved the Paris Legion team to Las Vegas on 12th September 2022, with Call of Duty League 2023 being the debut for the team with the new name.
