Building on Record-Breaking Momentum
The launch of the Viewership Hub comes as the Esports World Cup continues its rapid rise as one of the world’s premier esports events.
Hosted this year in Paris, France, the tournament follows a record-setting 2025 edition that saw audience engagement reach unprecedented heights.
According to Esports Charts, last year’s festival generated nearly 184 million Hours Watched, representing a 51.3% increase compared to the inaugural Esports World Cup in 2024.
The 2025 competition also became the first EWC to surpass 3 million Peak Viewers, driven by the hugely popular Mobile Legends: Bang Bang Mid-Season Cup (MSC) 2025, further cementing the tournament’s place among the largest esports events worldwide.
