SYDNEY, Sept 25 — As Activision gets set to release its latest “Call of Duty” video game title, it has announced the launch of a worldwide e-sports league in support of the franchise.

The Call of Duty World League will include two Divisions — The Pro Division and The Challenge Division for amateur and aspiring professional players — each feeding into the Call of Duty Championship.

The Pro Division begins competition in January 2016 in North America, Europe, and Australia & New Zealand.

For the first time, the Call of Duty Championship will move from spring to autumn to give players time to hone their competitive skills in “Call of Duty: Black Ops III” during the World League regular season. It is due to take place in the autumn of 2016.

“Call of Duty: Black Ops III” is due out November 6. — AFP-Relaxnews
