Konami and FIFA's collaboration culminates in the FIFAe World Cup 2024, a thrilling competition taking place in Saudi Arabia. The event, spanning both console and mobile platforms, begins December 9th and will be livestreamed globally with a live audience.
The tournament features a stellar lineup of competitors. Over 54 players from 22 countries will battle it out in intense 2v2 console matches, while 16 mobile players from 16 different nations will clash in 1v1 showdowns. These finalists emerged from qualifiers that started in October.
A substantial prize pool of $100,000 is up for grabs, with the top prize being a $20,000 share. Even viewers can participate in the excitement! Daily bonuses of up to 4,000 eFootball points and 400,000GP are available to those watching the livestream from December 9th to 12th.
This collaboration marks a significant achievement for Konami, adding to their impressive roster of partnerships, including high-profile collaborations with football legends like Messi and popular franchises such as Captain Tsubasa.
However, the impact on the average gamer remains to be seen. Whether the high-stakes tournament will attract a broad audience beyond dedicated esports fans is yet to be determined.
