FC Pro 26 Worlds Moves to Paris

The FC Pro 26 World Championship is moving from Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, to Paris, France, as part of the Esports World Cup 2026 relocation. The announcement was made by the Esports Foundation following an extended evaluation process regarding the Middle East situation and to accelerate international rotation plans.

The FC Pro 26 World Championship will become the largest EA Sports FC tournament in history, featuring a record $1.5 million USD prize pool. The Esports World Cup 2026 is scheduled from July 6 to August 23, 2026.

The venue change provides players, teams, and fans with clarity and stability for travel and event planning. More details about the championship schedule are expected to be revealed later this week.

While this tournament primarily focuses on 1v1 competitive play rather than Pro Clubs mode, it represents a significant development in the FC esports ecosystem and may influence future competitive initiatives across all FC game modes.
