#Esports World Cup

For those that missed it, the upcoming HONOR 200 Pro is now the official smartphone of the Esports World Cup (EWC). The partnership between HONOR and the Esports World Cup Foundation (EWCF) is slated to showcase the phone’s top-notch features. The Esports World Cup Foundation has officially confirmed a $45 million funding commitment for the inaugural Esports Nations Cup 2026, a new global tournament centered on national teams rather than traditional esports clubs. Set to debut in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, from November 2 to 29, 2026, the Esports Nations Cup introduces a country-versus-country format designed to add national identity, pride, and long-term structure to competitive gaming. Unlike existing club-based competitions, the Esports Nations Cup allows professional players to represent their countries across 16 game titles, while still accounting for the role of esports organizations. With national teams, equal pay across titles, and a long-term development framework, the Esports Nations Cup aims to establish a new pillar in the global esports calendar—one that connects elite competition with national identity and fan loyalty. GoTyme Bank has partnered with Visa for the FIFA World Cup 2026, bringing exclusive promos and experiences for Filipino fans. The collaboration allows GoTyme Bank customers to get a chance to watch the World Cup live, with raffle entries tied to spending using their GoTyme Visa Debit Cards.
