ES Sports revealed that 32 leagues and federations from around the world will be represented in the upcoming FC Pro Leagues, which features a $1.3 million prize pool.
The announcement came on the heels of Paulo “PHzin” Henrique’s victory at the FC Pro Open, which EA Sports said was watched by nearly 320,000 fans.
The FC Pro Leagues is a collection of FC Pro Domestic championships. Leagues with players representing their favorite clubs include the Premier League, LaLiga EA SPORTS, Bundesliga, Ligue 1 Uber Eats, Serie A TIM, CONMEBOL, MLS and others.
Players will have an opportunity to qualify for the inaugural FC Pro World Championship, where they will join PHzin along with three other qualifiers from the FC Pro Open.
“FC Pro Leagues is part of our most ambitious football esports competition to-date with FC Pro, bringing together a record number of our league partner programs into a unified, star-studded ecosystem,” said Sam Turkbas, Senior Director & Commissioner, Football Esports, EA. “FC Pro Leagues will set the benchmark for how leagues reach young fans on a global scale as well as how supporters engage with their favorite clubs in new ways.”
