China’s All Gamers Global (AG.AL) won the 2026 Esports World Cup club championship in Paris, finishing ahead of Saudi Arabia’s Falcons and France’s Vitality.
The final ceremony was attended by Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman and French President Emmanuel Macron, who presented AG.AL with the trophy. The Paris edition was the first time the tournament was held outside Saudi Arabia.
AG.AL topped the standings with 5,300 points, 700 points ahead of Falcons, and took the $7M grand prize from a total purse of more than $75M. The team secured the lead in the final days after French player Gwen won the TrackMania tournament.
Falcons, which had won the previous two club titles, finished as runner-up but claimed an individual championship in Rocket League after defeating Spacestation Gaming 4-0 in the final.
The seven-week event brought together more than 2,000 players representing around 200 clubs from over 100 countries. Competitors took part in 25 tournaments across 24 games, while attendance exceeded 500,000 visitors, according to the announcement.
During the visit, Saudi Arabia’s and France’s sports ministries also signed a memorandum of understanding covering esports, event organisation, investment and sports tourism.
