With the Free Fire World Series (FFWS) 2023 coming up in a few weeks, fans around the world are getting excited for this mega competition. This fifth edition of the world series will be organised in Bangkok, the capital of Thailand, and 18 teams from eight regions are preparing to battle it out for the title. Garena has set the prize fund for the tournament at $1 million.
Unlike all the previous seasons, the 2023 FFWS will be played over three distinct phases, adding another layer of excitement among spectators. Earlier this year, the publisher had stated that the reason behind changing the format of the global events was to gain more popularity for the game.
The initial stage, Knockout, is planned for November 10 to 19, during which 18 teams will clash for 12 slots in the next stage. On November 24 and 25, the top 12 will then contest in the Points Rush to collect their headstart points. Subsequently, the FFWS 2023 Grand Finale is scheduled to take place on November 26.
