Events Details

The AFC eAsian Cup 2023 is all set to take place in Doha from February 1 to 5, 2024. As players from across Asia get set to converge to celebrate the Asian Football Confederation (AFC)’s first-ever esports event, the AFC brings to you a deep-dive into what to expect.

The AFC eAsian Cup is set to showcase 19 teams from the AFC’s Member Associations who are currently participating in the ongoing AFC Asian Cup Qatar 2023™. Divided into four groups of three teams and two groups of four, each team comprises two main players and one substitute and will participate in highly competitive 12-minute matches in a 2v2 format. The matches will be played on Konami’s eFootball 2024 and will see the participants use PS5 consoles as they aim to go down in history as the winners of the first-ever AFC eAsian Cup. In the group stage, each team engages in two showdowns against every other team in its group. Following the footsteps of the ongoing AFC Asian Cup™, the event will see the top two teams from each group, alongside the four best third-place finishers, earning a berth in the knockout stage. Hereon, the winners of each round will be decided based on a best-of-three format, culminating in the final on February 5.
