EVENT FORMAT
Three teams from each participating country – China, Korea, Thailand, and Vietnam – each consisting of three to four players, will battle it out in a two-sided double-elimination styled bracket. During this double-elimination bracket, each matchup will be played in a Best-of-5 format, meaning that teams must win at least three games out of the maximum five games played to advance.
Both teams in the matchup will nominate a different individual athlete for each of the first three games. For the optionally required game four and five, the athletes from games one, two, and three can be re-nominated. As a result, a single athlete can only compete in a maximum of two games during a single matchup between two EA SPORTS™ FIFA Online 4 teams, putting a greater focus on the performance and tactics of the entire team.

EA SPORTS AND FIFAe UNVEIL THE EA SPORTS FIFA ONLINE 4 SERIES 2023
Looking back at the EA SPORTS™ FIFA Online 4 Series 2022
The EA SPORTS™ FIFA Online 4 Series players across Asia competed in domestic qualifiers and four major tournaments with more than 200 million views generated during the 2022 season. The season concluded at the FIFAe Continental Cup 2022™ with Team ProGamer, the first Vietnamese team to win in the tournament’s history, lifting the trophy and becoming the world’s best FIFA Online 4 team.
The upcoming EA SPORTS FIFA Online 4 Series 2023
The 2023 season will feature a revised schedule, with more focus on domestic qualifiers, as the proving grounds of future champions. Starting the season with local and online competition, teams will battle their way into their respective domestic qualifiers, such as the eK League Championship in Korea, the FSL in China, the Super League in Thailand and the Vietnam Pro League in Vietnam.
The best teams from each participating country will then advance to EACC major events - the first international competition of the season. In addition to testing their mettle against competitors from across the ecosystem, each major will give teams a chance to earn additional prize money and ranking points.
Based on official qualifying events and EACC major placement throughout the season, teams will collect ranking points and claim a spot on the FIFA Online 4 Series Leaderboard, which will qualify the best teams into the FIFAe Continental Cup 2023™. At the final event, only one team will lift the trophy and become the world’s best on FIFA Online 4.
