The Esports World Cup promised that it would be revealing many of the participating games during the month of December 2024, and lo and behold, just a few days into the final month of the calendar year, and yet another game has been affirmed for the major festival.
Following Call of Duty (Black Ops 6 and Warzone 2.0), Honor of Kings, and Garena Free Fire, the first fighting game for the festival has been confirmed, with Street Fighter 6 set to appear.
We don’t yet know if this will be baked into the Street Fighter competitive season or if it will act as a standalone third-party tournament, but regardless of what happens, if this past summer’s EWC is anything to go by, we can look forward to a tournament where millions of dollars can be won.
