The tournament has been expanded for the second edition to include a World Blitz Team Championship. Matches are played on six boards, and one board must be occupied by a woman and one board is reserved for an amateur chess player with a rapid rating below 2000.

The rapid tournament takes place from 2 to 4 August and is a Swiss tournament featuring 38 teams. The blitz tournament starts on 5 August with a group stage, followed by a knockout final round on 6 August.

World number one Magnus Carlsen, world champion Ding Liren and many other prominent players will be competing.
