become their own respective champion.
Traditional FGS 23 1v1 competition returns as all will compete

confederations. More than 30 football league partners and
confederations will hold tournaments, giving competitors the
opportunity to represent their favorite football club. The biggest
and best football esports tournaments are returning as part of FGS
23, including the ePremier League, Virtual Bundesliga, eLaLiga
Santander, eLigue 1 Uber Eats, eMLS, eSerie A TIM, KPN eDivisie,
CONMEBOL eLibertadores, and the eChampions League. The remaining
football league partners will be announced very soon.
- The top 64 FGS 23 performers, qualifying through either FGS
Regional Qualifiers or football league partner successes, will
clash at the FGS Playoffs on June 23-25.

World Cup 2023™ in late summer 2023. The top 24 FGS Playoffs
performers representing FGS 23’s top stars will compete at the
FIFAe World Cup 2023™ where only one will be named world
champion.
