Naver's streaming platform Chzzk said on Thursday it will livestream the 2026 League of Legends World Championship (Worlds 2026), which is being held in the United States through Nov. 15.

Chzzk will provide Korean coverage through the official LCK channel. Viewers can watch English coverage on the LCK Global channel. The English broadcast will also support AI-based Korean subtitles.

Four South Korean teams, including Gen.G, Hanwha Life Esports, T1 and Dplus KIA (DK), will compete at Worlds this year.

Alongside the official broadcast, Chzzk will also run co-viewing content in which streamers watch matches and interact with users in real time.

Seven streamers will take part in the co-viewing: Wolf, Kangqui, CuVee, Bang, Vchar, Odanming and Untara. Users can watch each streamer's reactions and commentary separately from the official analysis.

Chzzk logged 18,150,000 cumulative viewers and 39,630,000 cumulative plays through its broadcast of Worlds 2025 last year. Peak concurrent viewership during the tournament period was about 560,000.

Naver plans to expand touchpoints with esports viewers this year as well through interactive content such as the official broadcast and co-viewing.

Ju Geon-beom (주건범), Naver's entertainment leader, said, "We will provide a range of broadcast content for this League of Legends World Championship as well so users can enjoy the tournament in multiple ways."
