The tournament features Console (PS4 & PS5) and Mobile divisions. Eighteen countries are vying for the final spots: Brazil, Japan, Argentina, Portugal, Spain, England, France, Costa Rica, India, Indonesia, Malaysia, Morocco, Netherlands, Poland, Saudi Arabia, South Korea, Thailand, and Turkey.

The Unexpected FIFA x Konami Partnership
This collaboration is ironic, given their long history of competition. EA and FIFA ended their decade-long partnership in 2022, reportedly due to a disagreement over FIFA's requested $1 billion licensing fee (a significant increase from the previous $150 million). This led to the release of EA Sports FC 24 in 2023.
