Konami and FIFA's collaboration culminates in the FIFAe World Cup 2024, a thrilling esports event taking place in Saudi Arabia. The competition, spanning both console and mobile platforms, begins December 9th and will be livestreamed globally with a live audience.
The tournament features a fierce console division with over 54 players from 22 countries battling in 2v2 matches, and a competitive mobile division boasting 16 players representing 16 different nations in 1v1 showdowns. These qualifiers, which started in October, have narrowed the field to the most skilled competitors.
A substantial prize pool of $100,000 is up for grabs, with the grand prize winner receiving a significant $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.
