Intel Extreme Masters Season XV - World Championship is unlikely to be held in the LAN format in 2021, but it will "traditionally" take place online. However, the format of the tournament will be kept and the event will be held in three stages. 16 participants in the Play-In stage will be fighting for eight slots in the group stage. There the contestants will meet with other participants that have been chosen by the Road to Katowice rating (6 best teams from Europe and two from North America). The tournament will end with the Play-off stage that will host battles between six best teams from the group stage – 2 best teams will make it to ½ of the final and 4 teams to the ¼ of the final.
