The competitive gaming scene is heating up as we gear up for the second season of FC Pro, now moving into EA SPORTS FC 25. Last season, Vejrgang of RBLZ Gaming claimed the first-ever FC Pro World Championship, showcasing an impressive level of dominance.
As we enter this new season, familiar faces like Tekkz, nicolas99fc, and PHzin are eager to prove they still have what it takes, while new contenders such as Bulgaria’s Alihan are looking to make their mark.
In the world of competitive gaming, one of the most thrilling and challenging experiences is conquering your adversaries. Whether you’re a seasoned player or a newcomer eager to prove your skills, hard modes provide the ultimate test of strategy, reflexes, and teamwork. Among these challenges, the Nerubar Heroic Boost stands out as a pinnacle of difficulty and achievement.
Similarly, the FC Pro circuit offers its own set of high-stakes challenges, where only the best will rise to the top.
Second Season of FC Pro: What’s New?
The FC Pro team is building on the success of last year’s debut season. With over 100,000 viewers tuning into FC Pro Open events and millions of interactions across platforms like Twitch, YouTube, and social media, the blueprint for the future of football esports is being refined rather than overhauled. This season will bring consistency with enhancements informed by last year’s feedback.
One major change for players is the introduction of additional paths to the FC Pro World Championship Play-Ins. Starting with the FC Pro Open Cups in November, December, and January, players who missed out on the FC Pro Open have another shot at making it to Worlds.
FC Pro Open: The Path to Glory
The FC Pro Open returns, kicking off at the launch of EA SPORTS FC 25 and running until early February 2025. This global competition pits the best veterans against up-and-coming rookies, with a $1,000,000 prize pool across various stages including the FC Pro Open, Global Qualifier, and Cups.
Players begin their journey in the FC Pro Open Ladder, where they must prove their skills to qualify for the FC Pro Open Regional Qualifiers. Those who make it through these online stages will compete in the FC Pro Open Global Qualifier, the first broadcast event of the season. The FC Pro Open has also expanded to include 24 players this year.

The Road to the FC Pro Open Global Qualifier

At the FC Pro Open Global Qualifier, 64 players from around the world will compete to secure their place in the FC Pro Open regular season, which begins on November 25th, 2024. Matches will be streamed on players’ channels, with 16 players eventually making it through to the FC Pro Open.

The Road to the FC Pro World Championship
The journey culminates at the FC Pro World Championship, where the best players from across the FC Pro ecosystem will compete for the title and a share of the $1,000,000 prize pool.
