The first Major of the Call of Duty League 2025 season, with the best players in the world taking Black Ops 6 to new levels. Here’s everything you need to know about qualifiers, a full schedule, and where you can watch.

Black Ops 6 has been met with huge praise from players as one of the greatest COD games of the last few years, and was even voted as Dexerto’s Game of the Year in our Best of 2024 series.

While pros have expressed frustration with the map design, it has largely been celebrated by the competitive community, and soon enough, we’ll get to see the best players go head-to-head.

Starting with the qualifying matches, which kick off on December 6, right up to the opening event of the season in Madrid, Spain on January 30, here’s everything you need to know.

Stream

CDL events are expected to be broadcast exclusively on YouTube once again.

There has been no announcement made by the Call of Duty League regarding where matches will be streamed this season, though many expect it to continue to be exclusively on YouTube.

If so, we will make sure to embed each stream right here, as it changes every gameday. Alternatively, you can check out the watch parties of popular streamers, such as ZooMaa with The Flank and Scump’s OpTic watch party.
