According to Activision, this will be the first official Call of Duty: Ghosts tournament that will offer prize money on the Xbox One. There was similar tournament held last year with the previous installment of the Call of Duty series, Black Ops 2.

Call of Duty: Ghosts was released in November, and became one of the most popular launch titles for both the Xbox One and the PlayStation 4. The game was heavily hyped along with the new consoles, especially by Microsoft, who has an exclusive agreement with Activision so that the DLC for Call of Duty: Ghosts appears first on the Xbox 360 and Xbox One. The game includes an epic single-player campaign that features Riley, the dog squadmate that quickly won over many of the game's fans and became an Internet sensation. In addition, the game features many new multiplayer modes that longtime Call of Duty fans will appreciate.
