The Esports World Cup Foundation has announced the first 20 titles set to feature at the Esports World Cup 2026, confirming the return of many of the competition’s most popular games. The third edition of the multi-title tournament will once again take place in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, and is expected to include a total of 24 games, with four (or more) yet to be revealed.
What Games Are Confirmed for EWC 2026?
The confirmed lineup spans across genres, from MOBAs and shooters to fighting games and even chess. Returning heavyweights include Counter-Strike 2, Dota 2, League of Legends, VALORANT, and Mobile Legends: Bang Bang, alongside a mix of console, PC, and mobile titles.
Here’s the full list of confirmed games so far:
Apex Legends
Call of Duty: Black Ops 7
Call of Duty: Warzone
Chess
Counter-Strike 2
Crossfire
Dota 2
EA Sports FC 26
Fatal Fury: City of the Wolves
Free Fire
Honor of Kings
League of Legends
Mobile Legends: Bang Bang
Overwatch 2
PUBG: Battlegrounds
PUBG Mobile
Rainbow Six Siege X
Street Fighter 6
Teamfight Tactics
VALORANT
What’s Missing From the Lineup?
One notable absence is Rennsport, the sim racing title that previously hosted its R1 LAN events at the Esports World Cup. For the past two years, Team Redline dominated the Rennsport competition, but its omission from the 2026 roster raises questions about whether racing esports will feature at all next year.
Rocket League, Tekken 8, and StarCraft II are also not included in the roster so far.
