eFootball Selected as Exclusive Gaming Platform for FIFAe World Cup 2024

Konami and FIFA's unexpected esports collaboration: The FIFAe Virtual World Cup 2024! This partnership, following years of FIFA vs. PES competition, is a surprising twist. The tournament will utilize Konami's eFootball as its platform.

In-Game Qualifiers on eFootball: Now Live!

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

In-game qualifiers, a three-part competition, run from October 10th to 20th. National Nomination Phases for the 18 countries follow from October 28th to November 3rd.

The offline final round concludes in late 2024 (exact date pending). Even if your country isn't among the 18, you can participate in qualifiers up to Round 3, earning rewards like 50 eFootball coins, 30,000 XP, and other bonuses.

The Surprising FIFA x Konami Partnership

This collaboration is ironic, given their long-standing rivalry. EA and FIFA ended their decade-long partnership in 2022, reportedly due to FIFA's demand for a significantly increased licensing fee ($1 billion every four years). This led to the release of EA Sports FC 24 without the FIFA branding.

Download eFootball from the Google Play Store and participate in the current special event featuring Bruno Fernandes and an 8x match experience multiplier for faster Dream Team progression.
