The inaugural FIFAe World Cup 2024, a collaborative effort between eFootball and FIFA, has concluded, crowning champions in both console and mobile categories. Malaysia's Minbappe secured victory in the mobile division, while Indonesia dominated the console competition with the winning team of BINONGBOYS, SHNKS-ELGA, GARUDAFRANC, and akbarpaudie.
Held at the impressive SEF Arena in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, this tournament marks the first of what's anticipated to be a recurring event. The high production values of the FIFAe World Cup 2024 are a testament to the significant investment in esports by Saudi Arabia, mirroring the inaugural Esports World Cup held this year.

The success of the FIFAe World Cup 2024 is less a question of audience reception and more a clear statement of intent from Konami and FIFA. This partnership strongly positions eFootball as the premier football simulator for elite competition.
However, the lavish spectacle of the tournament raises concerns about its long-term viability and appeal to the average gamer. History shows that large-scale organizational involvement in esports, even in established scenes like fighting games, can sometimes lead to complications. While the FIFAe World Cup currently runs smoothly, potential challenges remain.
