Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare will immerse players in a war story that, for the first time in franchise history, extends beyond the reaches of Earth into the vast expanse of our solar system.

Call of Duty fans, prepare for the biggest gathering of the global Call of Dut community, as Activision presents Call of Duty XP, the ultimate interactive experience and fan celebration, taking place at the Forum in Inglewood, California, September 2 - 4.

Fans will also get to play the first Call of Duty VR experience on site, and will have other ‘you-had-to-be-there' live action experiences inspired by Call of Duty, including Nuketown paintball, Zombies laser tag and other fun.

The Call of Duty XP festivities center around the eagerly-awaited Call of Duty World League Championship, Presented by PlayStation®4, the culmination of the inaugural season of the Call of Duty® World League (CWL), Presented by PS4. After nearly a year of tough competition from across the globe, 32 of the top teams worldwide will compete for more than $2 million in prizing, as part of the CWL's 2016 prize pool which tops $3.5 million. Both prizes are the largest in Call of Duty history. After setting viewership records for Call of Duty competitive events during the Stage 1 Finals, the CWL is moving toward the highly-anticipated Stage 2 Finals, where the first Call of Duty World League Championship qualifiers will be determined. Major League Gaming is the official tournament operator of the Call of Duty World League Championship, Presented by PS4.

Additionally, live at Call of Duty XP, thousands of eager fans will witness the world-premiere of Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare multiplayer, and be the first in the world to go hands-on with multiplayer as well as Infinity Ward's all-new cooperative zombies mode. Attendees will also be the first to play Call of Duty: Modern Warfare Remastered multiplayer. Fans have the rare opportunity to play the latest Call of Duty games before their highly-anticipated November 4th release. Additionally, further reflecting the full breadth of the Call of Duty franchise, attendees will be among the first to play new downloadable content for Call of Duty: Black Ops III. All Call of Duty XP attendees will have the chance to compete for prizes by showcasing their skills in 6 vs. 6 competitive matches, as more than 500 gameplay stations will be set up on site for fans to enjoy.

Built specifically for the community, Call of Duty XP immerses fans in all of the action and excitement that embody Call of Duty. Players will be able to challenge each other in a frenetic paintball battle on a life-sized Call of Duty: Black Ops Nuketown multiplayer map, or team up with other fans in an intense laser tag experience inspired by Infinite Warfare's new zombies game mode.
