The Paris franchise for the upcoming Call of Duty League starting in 2020 has officially unveiled its name and branding as the Paris Legion.
Paris was the last remaining franchise still to announce their name and logo, with all other eleven brands revealed for the inaugural season.
Paris are one of two non-North American franchises, joined by London Royal Ravens, and will hope to enlist the support of European fans when the league starts in January.
As was previously leaked via exposed code on the Call of Duty website, the franchise will officially be named Paris Legion, and have revealed their logo, which features the iconic fleur-de-lis design.
The central section of the fleur-de-lis is stylized in a sharp shape, but otherwise its a modern take on the classic design, often associated with French flags through the ages.
