Post Malone: A Gamer & Global Icon

This is not the first time fans have seen Malone with a gaming connection. He recently teamed up with EA for an Apex Legends crossover as well.

He has also streamed games like Warzone and Hunt: Showdown in front of an audience. There is no doubt that he loves gaming.

This is what Mike McCabe, COO of the Esports World Cup Foundation, has said about him in the recent statement:

“Esports is a global cultural force where music, storytelling, and competition collide to create unforgettable moments. With Post Malone, a true gamer and global artist, we’re celebrating music’s power to unite fans and shape esports’ future.”

Spectacular Kickoff

Last year’s opening ceremony was amazing and drew many eyes to the tournament; however, this time, it is going to be a spectacular event, starting from July 10, 2025.

It sets the stage for two months of high-stakes activity in Riyadh, which will last through August.

This development follows Cristiano Ronaldo’s confirmation as the event’s ambassador, which adds even more star power.

The Esports World Cup X account teased: “From sold-out arenas to Riyadh’s heart—don’t just watch, live it!” Tickets are already in high demand, guaranteeing fans a front-row seat to this cultural milestone.

With massive prize pools involved, all the competitors and players are ready to win big at the Esports World Cup 2025.

Fans will be involved as well, supporting their teams, enjoying the epic gaming and Esports festival with a Post Malone grand music event.
