As a seasoned gamer and follower of esports for over two decades, I must say that this collaboration between FIFA and Konami is not only exciting but also a testament to the resilience and adaptability of both organizations. Having witnessed the transition from FIFA 94 to the current iterations, I can confidently say that this partnership signifies a new chapter in the world of football gaming.
The FIFA organization has partnered with Konami to launch two esports competitions for the FIFAe World Cup, which will take place within Konami’s eFootball platform. Previously, FIFA had been working together with Konami’s eFootball since EA relinquished the FIFA license. This new agreement serves to strengthen their partnership. Starting today, players from eligible nations can sign up for these tournaments on console and mobile devices.
FIFA and Konami have officially announced their esports partnership through a press release on their respective websites. Moreover, Konami has outlined the rules and guidelines for the FIFAe World Cup competitions that are happening now until at least November 3, 2024. These tournaments will consist of three phases in both mobile and console events. Gamers will engage in Dream Team mode until reaching the FIFAe World Cup 2024 Finals, where they’ll switch to Authentic Team Mode for the competition.
It’s important to mention that only certain countries can participate in the FIFAe World Cup 2024 competitions. Here is a list of those participating countries:
- Argentina
- Brazil
- Costa Rica
- England
- France
- India
- Indonesia
- Japan
- Korea Republic
- Malaysia
- Morocco
- Netherlands
- Poland

Without the involvement of EA, FIFA continues to maintain a strong presence within the world of eSports, and it appears they will do so even as we approach the year-end in 2024. Keep an eye on Shacknews for updates about FIFA gaming!
