HoK Global Esports has yet to announce the format of the whole tournament, but looking at the previous tournaments, we could expect at least two stages: Group Stage and Knockout Stage. The Group Stage will feature all sixteen teams divided into two or four groups, with the top-ranking teams going to the Knockout Stage.
At the Knockout Stages, teams will be randomly drawn into pairings, while taking into consideration that Group winners and Teams from the same group do not face each other in the Quarterfinals.
