In order to see the Modern Warfare 2 news at the CDL Championship Sunday, all you need to do is tune into the CDL channel on YouTube on Sunday, August 7. While the stream kicks off at 12 PM PT / 3 PM ET / 8 PM BST, there’s no word on when Infinity Ward will take the stage.

While the reveal is set for Sunday, the action kicks off on Thursday, August 4 with four matches to play. The CDL Champs event schedule will then consist of four more matches on Friday and Saturday, before the Grand Final takes the spotlight on Sunday, August 7.

This year, the competition was fierce as only eight of the twelve CDL teams qualified for Champs. The eight teams will battle it out for a prize pool of over 2 million dollars. The winning team will take home 1.2 million dollars and the title of champions.

Long-time Call of Duty fans will surely be pulling for the iconic OpTic Texas squad, while some will have their eye on Major Major IV winners Los Angeles Thieves. Of course, Atlanta FaZe are always a threat to win any given event and cannot be overlooked.

You can tune in on August 4 to see how the biggest competitive Call of Duty event of the year plays out and earn viewership rewards such as an Automaton Blueprint while you’re at it!
