The CodUndergroundLeague returns in 2026 building off the epic success of 2025 to once again bring you the absolute pinnacle of CodUndergroundLeague Esports entertainment. This year the schedule will include 4 Major Tournaments as all 12 teams within the CodUndergroundLeague battle for the top spot, ultimate glory, and massive prizing.

​

For the 2026 season teams will compete in Call of Duty®: Black Ops 7 on Cross Platforms with any League approved controller, giving players an incredible level of input customization. Stay tuned for more information coming soon on dates and where to buy tickets.

​

All 12 teams in the CodUndergroundLeague will compete in four double-elimination Majors across the regular season in a hybrid LAN/online format. Each Major will be on LAN with a live audience in attendance.

Teams’ seeding into the Majors will be determined by head-to-head group play matches held online over the course of four or five qualifying weeks leading up to each Major. These qualifying weeks are crucial because at the end only the top eight seeds will be placed in the winners bracket during round 1, while seeds 9-12 will qualify for elimination bracket round 1 at the Major Tournament.

As before, teams will earn CUL Points for each match win throughout the season—with additional points distributed to teams based on their performance at Online Minor and LAN Major Tournaments. CUL Points totals will be critical, with teams fighting for their spot in the 2025 season standings and a shot at becoming one of eight teams to qualify for the 2026 Call of Duty League Playoffs.
