The Inaugural Esports World Cup’s Live Streaming Performance

The main stage at the Esports World Cup with a massive golden monument to all of the competitors

After nearly two months, 22 tournaments, and the awarding of $60M in prizes, the Esports World Cup (EWC) is over. Pro teams from around the world competed in MOBAs, Fighters, Shooters, Battle Royales, and RTS titles for the right to call themselves the world’s best gamers. The spectacle of the EWC would have been impossible without the financial backing of Saudi Arabia’s Crown Prince Mohammed Bin Salman who has grown the Saudi gaming industry to $1B as of 2024.
