The FUT Champions #1 Tournament - our first live event of the FIFA 18 Global Series on the road to the FIFA eWorld Cup 2018 - is ready to take place from January 26 to 28 in Barcelona.

In this three-day event, 128 FUT Champions competitors will face each other to try to secure one of the 16 available spots (8 for PlayStation, 8 for Xbox) in the EA SPORTS FIFA 18 Global Series playoffs.

The players who emerge victorious - after qualifying for Barcelona by finishing on top of the November 2017 Global Weekend League leaderboard - will reunite in June 2018 at the playoffs, where the top finishers will earn direct entry to the FIFA eWorld Cup 2018 Grand Final.
