Get your futbol on, folks!
The continuation of the EA SPORTS FIFA 18 Global Series on The Road to the FIFA eWorld Cup 2018 kicks-off this weekend in Manchester, England. Players will face-off in the three-day event at the Victoria Warehouse from April 13th to 15th, with the top 8 players on each console moving on to the FIFA 18 Global Series Playoffs later this year. As Barcelona proved, the new tournament format is guaranteed to provide drama and entertainment between fan favourites, world champions, and underdogs as they rise to fame in one of the biggest competitive gaming events of the year.
FUT Champions Cup Manchester will see new players join the ranks and returning players looking for redemption—or revenge—and a spot in the Global Series Playoffs. FUT Champions Cup Barcelona winner Donovan “DhTekKz” Hunt and runner-up Nicolás “Nicolas99fc” Villalba will return for another chance at glory, alongside many more of the biggest names in competitive FIFA. While, Kurt “kurt0411” Fenech and Spencer “Unilad Gorilla” Ealing will be seeking redemption following their performances in Barcelona. You can learn more about some of top players to watch here.
Fans can catch all the action live from Barcelona on our EA SPORTS Twitch, Facebook, Twitter and YouTube channels starting on Friday, April 13th at 12pm BST.
