IESF Announces Record Number of Countries for 2024 World Esports Championship

The International Esports Federation (IESF) is thrilled to announce a record-breaking 130 registered Member Federations for the National Qualifiers of the World Esports Championship 2024. For the first time, a total of 609 teams will compete across five game titles representing their countries. The National Qualifiers are underway as of January 16 and are expected to be one of the most competitive thus far.
Last year’s incredible competition and attendance at the WEC in Iasi, Romania, was a key indicator that the 16th edition of the WEC in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia will be even more massive.
IESF General Secretary Boban Totovski said: “We are amazed but not surprised by the number of registered Members Federations for the National Qualifiers this year. It only shows the growth of the organization, the progress made by the Federations, and the Esports ecosystem. Starting with the qualifiers, it is our goal to ensure the best conditions and allow the players to represent their countries in the best way possible. We hope that with more players and teams this year the competition will reach its full potential and be the largest international esports event ever.”
The National Qualifiers will officially kick off the road to the WEC24 and determine which teams will represent their countries in the Regional Qualifiers, set to begin in June. The qualification process will include PC, mobile, and console games.
