Activision to host 32 teams competing for $1m in prizes

Activision will host its second Call of Duty Championship from March 28 to 30 in Los Angeles, the publisher announced Thursday.

The championship will draw 32 teams from around the world to compete for a total of $1 million in prize money. Players will compete in Call of Duty: Ghosts on Xbox One, with qualifying events in leading months held online and in person by international eSports organizations.

Regional tournaments and the finals will be broadcasted live on MLG.tv from late February through March.

Team Fariko Impact took home $400,000 USD in prize money after besting EnVyUs at last year's championship, which was also held in Los Angeles with a $1 million prize pool.

Infinity Ward has promised several impending adjustments to the game meant to improve its competitive play experience. The studio said Ghosts' spawning system is a particular area of development focus aside from thwarting cheaters and rebalancing weapons.

8 American teams and everyone will be fighting ONLINE. That is a joke to host a 400k prize and have it somewhat based online

That's a crazy amount of money to win let alone for a Call of Duty championship game. I have a feeling that things like this are just going to keep on getting bigger.

Ghosts is one of the most broken cod games ever, i don't understand how people actually deal with the bs that they shelled out this past year, let alone go pro and compete in this game. I miss the older cod's!!!
