The FIFAe World Cup 2024 showcased exceptional production values, reflecting the significant investment in esports, particularly from Saudi Arabia, in what is also the year of the first Esports World Cup. This tournament marks a significant milestone for eFootball, positioning it as the leading football simulator for high-stakes competitions.

The question isn't whether the FIFAe World Cup 2024 will resonate with fans; it's evident that both Konami and FIFA are keen on establishing eFootball as the go-to football simulator for top-tier esports. However, there's skepticism about whether such a high-profile, glamorous event will connect with the average player. Drawing parallels with the fighting game community, which has faced challenges when major organizations get involved, there's a cautious outlook on the long-term impact of the FIFAe World Cup. Nonetheless, the tournament's debut has been smooth and promising.
