It was the fourth edition of the Games hosted by China (Beijing hosted the summer Universiade in 2001, Harbin the winter Universiade in 2009 and Shenzhen the summer Universiade in 2011), and the first edition to be referred to as the "Summer World University Games" rather than "Summer Universiade".

The Games were originally scheduled to take place between 16 and 27 August 2021. On 2 April 2021, it was announced that the Games would be postponed to 2022 due to the COVID-19 pandemic and the postponement of the 2020 Summer Olympics to 2021 for the same reason.[5][6] In May 2021, FISU rescheduled the event to 26 June—7 July 2022.[5] On 6 May 2022, FISU postponed the event again to 2023 due to COVID-19 concerns; the Games effectively replaced the 2023 Summer World University Games in Yekaterinburg, whose hosting rights had been stripped due to the Russian invasion of Ukraine; they will continue to be referred to as the 2021 Games.[7]
Host selection
On 1 September 2014, FISU opened bids for the 2021 Winter and Summer Universiades.[8] Bucharest, Romania[9] and Santiago de Cali, Colombia[10] announced intents to submit bids for the Summer Universiade. Ashgabat, Turkmenistan was offered to host the Games using the 2017 Asian Indoor and Martial Arts Games venues, but declined due to the size of the event.[11] On 14 October 2018, it was reported that the FISU had proposed a joint bid between Seoul, South Korea and Pyongyang, North Korea, during a meeting between Mayor of Seoul Park Won-soon and the FISU's secretary-general Eric Saintrond.[11]
On 13 December 2018, it was reported that a representative of Chengdu, China had signed a "pre-attribution contract" with the FISU at a meeting of its steering committee in Braga, Portugal.[12] On 1 March 2019 prior to the Winter Universiade in Krasnoyarsk, Chengdu was officially announced as the host of the 2021 Summer Universiade.[13]
