The Call of Duty League often rewards its viewers with tidy in-game collectables and rewards for tuning in to watch your favourite teams compete. As the league reaches its climax at the CDL World Championships 2021, the league has now revealed that a range of great prizes will become available throughout the weekend, including 25,000 Call of Duty: Vanguard beta keys.

The worldwide reveal of Vanguard commenced just an hour before the championships kicked off, through an in-game event in Warzone. The trailer that followed showcased a range of new multiplayer experiences alongside confirming a variety of new content coming to Warzone, including an anti-cheat software - finally.

Players will be given their first taste of the new Vanguard ordeals through a beta run, before its November 5 launch, as Sledgehammer look to refine any bugs and imbalances before the full launch. The devs have now confirmed that codes for the Beta run will become available through the Call of Duty League World Championships finals.
