According to multiple sources, it has been reported that Call of Duty is expected to be a part of the Esports World Cup held in Saudi Arabia. Both Modern Warfare 3 and Warzone tournaments may potentially take place with a substantial prize pool of nearly $3 million.
The EWC, a $45m Esports World Cup, has sparked a mix of reactions from the wider esports community with some praising and others criticizing it. Additionally, there has been backlash from fans towards teams and players who have chosen to participate in the EWC and profit from it.
Despite this, the amount of money available can have a monumental impact on both organizations and players, leading to the possibility of Call of Duty being featured in the 2024 Esports World Cup. This information has been reported by multiple sources and can even be found in hidden HTML code on the event’s website.
Despite months of speculation, the likelihood of the COD Esports World Cup being held in Riyadh has only increased, and an official announcement may be on the horizon.
Previously, the rumor was circulating and now it has resurfaced with more solid evidence. The EWC included specific information in the source code of their website (which has since been removed) that stated the following.
“Name\”:\”COD: MW3\”,\”PrizeMoney\”:[\”$$1,800,000\”],\”StartDate\”:\”2024-08-15\”,\”EndDate\”: \”2024-08-18\”
“Name\”:\”COD: Warzone\”,\”PrizeMoney\”:[\”$$1,000,000\”],\”StartDate\”:\”2024-07-03\”,\”EndDate\”:\”2024-07-06\”
Verifying the dates for the Warzone is a bit more challenging as they are scheduled right before the Last Chance Qualifiers for the World Series of Warzone Global Final. This event is expected to occur in mid-September, making it highly improbable for the WSOW Finals to be held at the Esports World Cup.
However, the information given is:
- Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3
- Date: August 15-18
- Prize Pool: $1,800,000
- Call of Duty: Warzone
- Date: July 3-6
- Prize Pool: $1,000,000
Since neither of these has been officially announced yet, the details are still subject to change. However, considering the proposed Warzone date is approaching rapidly, an announcement would need to be made sooner rather than later.
The current format of the Esports World Cup includes tournaments for Street Fighter, League of Legends, Overwatch, Apex Legends, and other games.
