FIFA may not have released a licensed football game recently, but it’s ready to team up with Rocket League to introduce an all-new category to its FIFA Esports World Cup.
In a “groundbreaking partnership”, FIFAe – that’s FIFA’s esports arm – says Rocket League will feature in the upcoming FIFAe World Cup, “signif[ying] a major step in FIFA’s commitment to embrace the entire ecosystem and drive the global growth of football esports globally”.
The competition invites the 16 participating nations to submit three players and one substitute, with the nations themselves selected “based on the number of representatives from each country in previous Rocket League Majors”.
