The 2025 Call of Duty League schedule has been leaked, with Dexerto confirming the lineup through multiple sources. The season will feature five events over seven months, with each season bringing slight changes, like varying numbers of Majors, format tweaks, and discussions over the timing of league matches around the holiday season. Leaks suggest events in Barcelona, Dallas, Florida, and Chicago, with Toronto expected to host the CDL Championships.
Exact dates remain unconfirmed, as the league hasn’t made an official announcement, though internal documents shared with Dexerto hint at a tentative schedule:

CDL Championship
Champs are scheduled for June 26–29 in Toronto. While Barcelona seems likely to host ofMajor 1, the specific locations for Majors 2 through 4 are speculative but may be Dallas, Florida, and Chicago.
Post-Season Expectations
Following the regular season, Black Ops 6 and possibly Warzone could appear in the Esports World Cup, potentially set for August if last year’s schedule holds.
An official announcement is expected from the Call of Duty League on November 12. While changes are possible, any adjustments are likely minor. Call of Duty pros are looking forward to the competitive season but have noted some concerns with Black Ops 6 that might impact its success.
