With a new LAN phase featuring five Continental Championships across the world, the finals for the third edition of the Rocket League FIFAe World Cup 2026 look set to take place in October. The event, which has been hosted by Riyadh for the past two years, will bring together sixteen national teams from five regions, featuring some of the best RLCS players in the world in new environments, to compete for the FIFAe 2026 trophy and over $500,000 in prizepool.
For the first time in its history, the FIFAe World Cup has been split into three stages to determine the sixteen nations teams that will compete in the tournament: the Nations League, the Continental Championships, and the World Finals. The Nations League finished in July, qualifying 38 teams worldwide to their region’s Continental Championships. Five locations will host these Continental Championships including Kuala Lumpur for Asia, Rio de Janeiro for South America, Casablanca for Africa, Mexico City for CONCACAF, and Lisbon for Europe. Saudi Arabia, due to being the host nation, has automatically qualified for the event. The following rosters are subject to change after the completion of the Continental Championships.
