The Duos event will feature a connected format of an individual competitive tournament and a Captain’s Cup.

Individual competitive

Similar to the usual competitive battle royale format, WSOW players will compete in a 75-duo custom lobby for five matches. The duo with the highest points will take the largest share of US$200,000.

As for the remaining US$100,000, Activision puts it up for grabs in the Captain’s Cup.

Captain’s Cup

The Captain’s Cup is a semi-invitational draft-based event, mixing rising Warzone players with some of the best Call of Duty pros in the world.

Five designated captains will draft out a team of 15 duos including their own duo squad.

Aside from playing for themselves, the drafted duos will represent their captain teams in the five aforementioned matches.

The performance of the five teams will determine their share of the Captain’s Cup prize pool. The winning captain claims a US$20,000 prize for themselves and US$1,000 for every member of their captain team.

Solo YOLO

Once the main tournament has concluded, WSOW will end the day with a 150-player Solo YOLO lobby.

Players will drop into Verdansk by themselves and the last operator standing will earn a cash prize of US$100,000.
