Activision Blizzard’s Overwatch League has revealed more details on its competitive structure for the 2021 season.
The fourth season of Overwatch’s franchised league is expected to commence on April 16th and will consist of four tournament cycles throughout the year, with each ultimately concluded by four seasonal tournaments: May Melee, June Joust, Summer Showdown and Countdown Cup.
A prize pool of $4.25m (~£3.01m) has been announced, with the money split between tournaments and the playoffs.
This year, competing teams will be divided into two groups based on their location for the season — East and West.
