FIFA 21: Everything You Need To Know About The Face-Off Series Contest

It was a long time coming but we finally have a FIFA event geared specifically towards the franchise’s humble community. In what could be deemed as a feature first from EA Sports, the FIFA 21 eSports cycle brings back the popular casual event, but this time, fans of the game and the content creators can join hands in what is certainly a welcome move.

After last year’s Twitch Rivals FIFA Face-Off, EA has announced the Face-Off Series once more and a host of big names are joining the cause.

 

What is FIFA Face-Off?

FIFA Face-Off is a one-of-a-kind event, part of the FIFA Global Series, where fans can experience the joy of getting close to one of their favourite content creators. Not just that, the event gives fans a chance to actually compete with their favourite creators and other celebrities who are a part of this event! Up until now, the event was restricted to content creators and celebs but EA have now decided to open the event to the public as well.

So far, many popular content creators confirmed their presence in the FIFA Face-Off contest such as Jack “Pie McDermott, MattHDGamer, Bateson87 or Zweback. The event will also present a host of FIFA eSports Pro players like Tekkz or Lisa Manley.

The winners of the Face-Off will be able to win their community members $25,000 worth of prizes! The event will be broadcasted live and a few lucky winners will get to be on the show! Who knows, you may even end up playing on the same team as your favourite stars! We speculate, of course, but it is exciting nonetheless.
