Chicago Huntsmen recruits U.S. Army to roster of partners

Chicago Huntsmen, the Call of Duty League franchise owned by NRG Esports, has recruited the U.S. Army as the latest addition to its roster of partners.

Details of the deal, including financial terms and the length, have not been disclosed at the time of writing.

The U.S. Army is no stranger to Call of Duty League, having secured a sponsorship with the competition itself in March. The one-year agreement was planned to activate “at multiple levels” prior to home series events being moved online due to COVID-19. The Army is the presenting sponsor of a broadcast segment titled ‘Tactical Play’ and it planned on hosting in-person activations at each franchise’s local event.
