Call of Duty Abandons “World Series of Warzone” After MLB Legal Challenge
Activision has dropped the 'World Series of Warzone' branding for its Call of Duty: Warzone esports events following a legal challenge from Major League Baseball. MLB argued that the 'World Series' name belongs exclusively to their sport and also took issue with the 'zone' part of 'Warzone.' The tournament is expected to continue under a new name.
