The Free Fire World Series (FFWS) is the annual professional Free Fire world championship tournament hosted by Garena. Teams compete for a total prize pool of US$2 million.[1] The 2021 edition of the event became world's most watched esports event by peak live viewer count at the time.[2]

Overview

The Free Fire World Series uses the Squad Battle Royale mode available in the video game Free Fire. 48 players (12 teams each one having four players) airdrop onto an island without any weapons or armor. Once on the ground, players must search for weapons, armor, and med kits. Players can knock down players using the weapons they collected. The last team to survive wins the game. Players get points based on the number of eliminations and final ranking of their team.[3][4]

History

Inaugural edition 2019

Free Fire World Series 2019 was held in November 2019 at Barra Olympic Park, Rio de Janeiro, and featured a prize pool of $400,000. 12 teams from Brazil, Thailand, Indonesia, Vietnam, the Middle East, India, Latin America, North America, and Eurasia participated in the championship. It was won by the Brazilian representatives the Corinthians.[5] The event had a peak live viewers count of 1.9 million.[6]

Main article: Impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the video game industry § Esports

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the FFWS for the 2020 season - alongside the 2020 Free Fire World Cup 2020 (FFWC) that was supposed to be held in Jakarta during the Summer, were both cancelled. Free Fire World Series 2020 had to be replaced with Free Fire Continental Series 2020 which was held to be on April 19. Free Fire Continental Series was held as 3 separate events for Asia, EMEA and Americas. The event was streamed live on YouTube and had 1.5 million peak live viewers. There was a prize pool of $300,000. In each region a total of 18 teams fought for a prize pool of $300,000. The Asian region winner was EXP Esports, the EMEA region winner was Sbornaya Chr, and the American region winner was Team Liquid.[7][8][9]

The championship was won by Attack All Around.[14] The event had a maximum of 1.4 million concurrent viewers during the grand finale, which was a decrease of 4 million viewers from the 2021 viewership, partially due to the ban of Free Fire in India and Bangladesh.[15]

À l'échelle macromoléculaire on n'observe donc aucun changement dans le temps. Un corps pur à l'équilibre liquide-vapeur est généralement qualifié de fluide saturé.
