As the 2025 Esports World Cup (EWC) approaches its 7 July kickoff in Riyadh, the Esports World Cup Foundation (EWCF) is steadily unveiling key updates and returning partnerships. Among the latest is the announcement that HONOR will once again serve as the tournament’s Official Smartphone Partner, following its collaboration during last year’s inaugural edition.
HONOR’s renewed commitment will see its newly launched Magic7 Pro device powering competitions in Honor of Kings, PUBG Mobile,Mobile Legends: Bang Bang, and Free Fire. These titles represent some of the most prominent mobile esports games globally and will offer a combined prize pool of more than $10 million.
“Mobile esports is one of the fastest-growing segments in competitive gaming, and having a partner like HONOR allows us to match that momentum with world-class technology,” said Mike McCabe, Chief Operating Officer at EWCF. “HONOR’s continued collaboration ensures our players are equipped with elite tools that elevate performance and unlock new levels of play.”
HONOR previously provided devices for the 2024 edition of the Esports World Cup, where the HONOR 200 series was used for competition and content creation. The company’s presence included interactive zones and branded lounges for fans attending in person.
“We look forward to seeing the HONOR smartphones power the best esports athletes in the world as they strive for international greatness,” said Dr. Rui Guo, Group CMO of HONOR Device Co., Ltd. “Our technology enables players to push their limits and achieve new heights in their gaming journey.”
