Esports World Cup 2025 heads into fourth week with four big titles up for grabs
RIYADH: The Esports World Cup 2025 heads into Week 4 after the crowning of 11 unique championship winners so far. For the latest updates, follow us @ArabNewsSport In the tournament's fourth week, the chess title will be decided. With a $1,500,000 prize pool on the line — along with Club Championship points — there's all to play for. Meanwhile PUBG Mobile World Cup will have a new champion after titleholders Alpha7 Esports were eliminated. Overwatch 2 will crown its Midseason Championship winner, while Mobile Legends: Bang Bang's Midseason Cup final will also take place. Chess With a prize pool of $1.5 million up for grabs, the inaugural chess tournament at the 2025 Esports World Cup concludes on Aug. 1. The Last Chance Qualifiers saw 256 players enter, and now there are just eight contenders left. First seed Magnus Carlsen was the clear favorite before the tournament began, with second and third seeds Hikaru Nakamura and Ian Nepomniachtchi next in line. All three qualified from the group stage and now head into the playoffs. Keep an eye on Nihal Sarin, who managed to knock out number four seed Maxime Vachier-Lagrave in the Group B lower bracket final – he emerged from the Last Chance Qualifier and is seeded just outside the top 10. PUBG Mobile An intense week of PUBG Mobile action has seen 24 teams whittled down to 16 for the grand final, with potentially just 14 matches deciding who walks out with the trophy. Defending champions, Alpha7 Esports, had a nightmare start to the tournament, failing to qualify for the grand final in the group stage, forcing them into the perilous survival stage. While many expected them to bounce back, another disastrous performance saw them eliminated in 21st place, meaning a new PMWC champion will be crowned in the coming days. Overwatch 2 The Overwatch Champions Series' Midseason Championship also takes place in Week 4, with $1 million on the line. Sixteen teams will enter the group stage, with the top two from each group advancing into a perilous single elimination bracket. With the OWCS: Midseason Championship at the 2025 Esports World Cup happening over four days, expect some top tier action. EWC 2024 champions Crazy Raccoon will be looking to join the two-time winners club, but they will face stiff competition from one of the most competitive fields ever. Mobile Legends: Bang Bang With a total of $3 million up for grabs in the prize pool, the Mobile Legends: Bang Bang Mid Season Cup has plenty at stake. After the dramatic Wildcard tournament in Week 1 followed by an intense group stage in Week 3, we are now firmly into the business end of the tournament, with the playoff bracket underway. Only the very best teams remain, with the likes of ONIC and Team Liquid leading the way. With life-changing money on the line, you do not want to miss the MLBB action. Club Championship Standings As the action heads into its fourth weekend of finals action, the Club Championship is really heating up, with every winner being a unique Club so far. Will we finally see a side claim a second trophy this year in Week 4? Team Vitality is still leading the Club Championship Rankings with 2,400 points, having not gained in Week 3. Their closest competitors are Gen.G Esports on 2,000, and Team Falcons on 1,950, both of whom gained on Vitality in Week 3. Elsewhere, have joined Team Falcons in third place. All but are represented in chess, while Team Falcons has a side in the PUBG Mobile event. OW 2 features Team Falcons and alongside and Team Liquid, who sit just behind them in joint fifth place.

Music sensation Tom Grennan says 2025 Esports World Cup left him ‘totally gobsmacked'
RIYADH: Walking onto a stage to thousands of people cheering and screaming is something most of us can only dream of. But for musicians, athletes, and esports players, it is part of the job. For the latest updates, follow us @ArabNewsSport British singer-songwriter Tom Grennan, visiting Riyadh for the first time for Esports World Cup 2025, said he was blown away by the support of the fans cheering on their favorite players. 'I watched people playing Call of Duty today. My experience of Call of Duty is sitting on an Xbox in my bedroom — their experience is sitting in front of 2,000 people,' he said. 'They're singing like football fans. There are flags everywhere. It's crazy. It's beautiful, it's wicked to see a new thing bubbling and I can already tell it's going to be massive.' The scale of the Esports World Cup can be overwhelming for first-time visitors, with state-of-the-art arenas, numerous activities and entertainments, and thousands of fans from all over the world buzzing with excitement. 'I've walked into a playground full of exciting, amazing new technology. To be honest I am gobsmacked by the scale of it,' said Grennan. 'Seeing fans walking around with different teams' shirts on, there are conversations going on between fans about who's the star player. 'I think it's amazing to see the people playing, who love it, who probably started in their bedroom and didn't think this was going to happen, now they've got thousands of other kids who aspire to be them. It's cool.' Esports has caught the world's imagination partly because of the players' authenticity and accessibility of the platform. While elite athletes now compete in packed arenas, their journeys began at home, driven by a love of the game. Grennan experienced a similar journey, progressing from humble beginnings to the top of the charts. 'I started when I was playing pubs in front of nobody and I was doing open mic nights,' he recalled. 'I was doing it because I loved it. I wasn't thinking about a record deal, I wasn't thinking about selling records, I was doing it because that was my release, that was how I could communicate with people. 'These players … probably didn't think all this was possible five years ago, and now obviously it is, they must just be like 'wow'. All the hard work, the arguments with parents, telling them 'this is what I want to do, this is what I love to do' — it's all paying off for them. It's amazing.' Music has become a huge part of the Esports World Cup, uniting communities from around the world and providing a soundtrack to the summer as the tournaments unfold. The Esports World Cup 2025 Song of the Year brought together artists from diverse genres to create 'Til My Fingers Bleed,' a collaboration between Dino from SEVENTEEN, Duckwrth, and Telle from The Word Alive. Grennan said he was impressed by the ambition of the artists and said the track perfectly suited the event, getting fans and players amped up and ready to compete. 'Bringing three genres in and mixing them up is very creative,' he said. 'K-Pop is one of the biggest, if not the biggest genre of music, and I think that when you're listening to the song, you feel like you're going to war. You feel like you're about to go into battle, and that's the aim of the game isn't it? You're battling and you want to feel that pump and that hype. I'm really into it and I think bringing those genres together and that mixture is really cool and hits three different fanbases, so it's smart.' Many video game franchises integrate music into the playing experience, offering players immersive soundtracks. In a full circle moment, Grennan's song 'Found What I've Been Looking For' was included on the FIFA 18 soundtrack, a franchise he remembers playing from an early age. When pressed to pick five of his songs he would like included on an EA Sports FC soundtrack, Grennan is reluctant to sing his own praises. 'I'd put a different range of music, I'd put some hip hop on there, some indie classics, some heavy metal to get people in the mood. I listen to so much different music,' he said. 'If I had to put five of my own songs on the soundtrack I'd take it back to 2018 with 'Found What I've Been Looking For'. For the rest, I'd choose 'Sober,' 'Little Bit Of Love,' 'Lonely Dancer' and 'Shadows on the Ceiling'.' The Esports World Cup 2025 continues until Aug. 24, with upcoming tournaments including Call of Duty: Warzone, Rocket League, Street Fighter 6, Tekken 8 and EA Sports FC 25.
