The Esports World Cup Foundation has announced that Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, is set to host the first Esports Nations Cup in November 2026. This exciting event will occur every two years, featuring national teams in North America, South America, Europe, MENA, Africa, Asia, Southeast Asia, and Oceania.

The event will have both team-based and solo games. Players can join by world rankings, regional events, or wildcard spots. This way, it stays fair and open for everyone. The ENC will offer guaranteed prize pools for all titles included, with organisers assuring that the tournament will be fair.

Game publishers such as Electronic Arts, Krafton, Tencent, and Ubisoft will be involved in the event, which means that popular games of first-person shooters, battle royale, sports simulations, and MOBAs will appear in the competition.

This upcoming esports tournament will prepare Riyadh, as Saudi Arabia will also host the Olympics Esports Games in 2027, another massive esports event.ย
