The Ultra previously hosted the first Canadian Call of Duty Major when the stage 3 Major took place at the Mattamy Athletic Centre from June 2 to 5. At the Major, the Ultra came in third, the team’s best placing of the season.

While the quick return to Toronto may be a surprise for some, Matt McGlynn, the vice president of marketing and brand at OverActive Media, felt like their successful event-filled 2022 has proven that Toronto is an amazing city for esports events.

“The success of this year’s high-profile esports tournaments confirmed the demand from new and existing fans for in-person events and this community shows no signs of slowing down,” McGlynn said. “Once again, Toronto Ultra will welcome professional Call of Duty to Toronto for a world-class experience at Major V and this tournament will continue to raise the bar in the esports industry, giving the next generation fan an unparalleled live experience, with a few surprises along the way.”
