Free Fire joins the line-up for 2025's Esports World Cup as hugely popular event set to return

  • The Esports World Cup is once more set to return in 2025
  • Fans will be able to follow a major new entry in the event with Free Fire set to return
  • Team Falcons dominated the previous entry in the hotly-anticipated esports event

As a seasoned esports enthusiast who’s been around the block more times than I care to remember, I must say that the Esports World Cup is always a spectacle not to be missed. With the announcement of Free Fire returning for the 2025 event, my excitement levels have hit an all-time high!


Following its conclusion earlier this year, it appears that the 2024 Esports World Cup was an overwhelming triumph. This is supported by the fact that a follow-up event has already been scheduled for the future. And the game set to make its mark in 2025 is none other than Garena’s Free Fire!

It’s quite probable you recall that the 2024 Esports World Cup: Free Fire Champions was won by Team Falcon, who clinched the first place prize. This victory additionally earned them an invitation to the Free Fire World Series Global Finals in Rio De Janeiro, Brazil for that same year.

Free Fire is set to reunite with the popular mobile multiplayer game Honor of Kings in revisiting Riyadh for another event, which stemmed from the Gamers8 tournament spin-off. Saudi Arabia has made substantial investments with aspirations to transform the nation into a global hotspot for esports enthusiasts. The Esports World Cup offers massive rewards and more, attracting players worldwide.

It’s evident by the high-quality production values seen in the majority of coverage that a substantial amount of investment is being made in the Esports World Cup. Consequently, it’s no wonder that Free Fire and other similar platforms are eager to revisit Riyadh for another opportunity to display their esports players’ skills on a global platform.

For us regular folks, we’ll have to wait and see how successful the next release will be, whether its novelty will sustain. The event certainly doesn’t lack in glamour, but it seems to take a backseat compared to other international esports events for these launches, which gives off an overall impression of being a less significant event.

Still, it’s certainly a far cry from the cancellation of the Free Fire World series back in 2021 during the nadir of Covid-19.
