The inaugural FIFAe World Cup 2024, a collaboration between eFootball and FIFA, has crowned its champions. Malaysia's Minbappe secured victory in the mobile division, while Indonesia dominated the console competition with the team BINONGBOYS, SHNKS-ELGA, GARUDAFRANC and akbarpaudie taking the top prize.

Held at the impressive SEF Arena in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, this first-of-its-kind tournament showcases a significant investment in esports from the region, mirroring the inaugural Esports World Cup held this year. The high production values of the FIFAe World Cup 2024 are evident, underscoring this commitment.

eFootball's Ambitions

The FIFAe World Cup 2024 clearly positions eFootball as a leading contender in top-tier esports football competition. However, the question remains whether this lavish spectacle will appeal to the average gamer. The history of esports, particularly in fighting games, shows that large-scale organizational involvement can sometimes lead to unforeseen challenges. While the FIFAe World Cup 2024 appears successful so far, potential hurdles remain.
