The FC Pro Open championship will be the first major esports tournament featuring EA FC 25, and 24 pros will compete against each other.
Like last year, the FC Pro Open will have much at stake for all those participating in the main competition. The community has plenty of reasons to be interested, as they can win fantastic rewards by viewing all the matchdays. Additionally, every esports pro represents an FC Pro Live item, which will be upgraded based on how they (the pros) perform in the event.
