The Esports World Cup 2026 is reaching its climax, with Week 6 delivering crucial outcomes that could determine the Club Championship’s destiny. From August 10 to 16, there was a notable surge in watch time for the second consecutive week, with almost 31% more watch hours compared to Week 5, as reported by Esports Charts.
Out of the four events wrapping up in Week 6, PUBG Mobile stood out as the most successful. The latest World Cup of the battle royale game concluded as one of its most popular competitions ever, although it fell short of joining MLBB in the 2 million Peak Viewers club at the EWC 2026.
Esports World Cup 2026: Week 6 results
The PUBG Mobile World Cup 2026 not only excelled in livestream viewership during the sixth week but also emerged as one of the crowd favorites at the EWC 2026. The Indian and Turkish-language broadcasts experienced significant year-on-year growth, with Turkey’s S2G Esports securing their second world title.
This event played a significant role in the overall weekly watch time at the EWC 2026, contributing 17.68 million watch hours, representing approximately a 65% share. PUBG Mobile also achieved its highest peak concurrent viewership numbers in five years at the PMWC 2026.
The Esports World Cup 2026 for Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six Siege also set a new watch time record for the EWC series, thanks to an expanded format with more matches. The Grand Final, the most popular match, saw a 29.35% higher Peak Viewership than the next best game.
The Esports World Cup 2026 event for Rocket League set new viewership records for the EWC series and became the game’s most popular third-party competition by Peak Viewers, excluding influencer-led events. Winner Team Falcons featured in all three top matches as their fans cheered them on in their quest to retain the EWC Club Championship.
Lastly, Chess’ second appearance at the EWC did not match the livestreaming success of its 2025 debut, but Magnus Carlsen successfully defended his title. The event ranked as the game’s second most popular this year as the Norwegian legend secured Team Liquid’s first win at the EWC.

From July 1 to August 18, Team Falcons emerged as the most-watched esports organization at the Esports World Cup 2026 for the third consecutive week. The Saudi club accumulated 36.78 million watch hours across its 16 rosters.
