‘We’re here to win’: Livin and Lunar, the Saudi champions competing at the EWC

PARIS: In Paris, the Esports World Cup is about far more than video games. It is also a stage where influence, national image, and power are on display as Saudi Arabia seeks to cement its place at the center of the global esports landscape. By bringing its flagship competition outside Riyadh for the first time, Saudi Arabia has turned the French capital into an international showcase for its sporting and geopolitical ambitions. Over the next seven weeks, more than 2,000 players from around 100 countries will compete for a title that represents far more than a trophy.
