Today’s ticket launch is accompanied by the release of the Totem of EWC 2026 film, introducing the Esports World Cup Trophy System that defines how victory is recognized at EWC. Built around four elements, the Champion’s Key, the Game Trophies, the Club Championship Trophy, and the Totem, the system turns every tournament win into a permanent part of EWC history, with champions’ Keys embedded into a landmark monument in Riyadh. Fans attending this summer will see that story unfold live as the world’s best players and Clubs compete for tournament titles, and ultimately, the Esports World Cup Club Championship crown. |
