With the regional qualifiers for the Free Fire World Series (FFWS) 2022 Sentosa ( Free Fire World ) coming to an end, Garena revealed all the teams qualified for the event.

Eighteen teams from 11 regions will participate in the mega event, which has a huge prize pool of US$ 2 million, around R$ 10 million reais . The tournament will be an in-person event that takes place in May on the island of Sentosa, Singapore.

In January, Garena announced that the 2022 World Series would feature 22 teams from 13 regions, including India and the CIS. However, due to security concerns, the Indian government banned Free Fire in the country on February 14th. On the other hand, Garena canceled the 4th Season of the Free Fire Pro League CIS due to the Russia-Ukraine conflict .

Free Fire Esports Brasil announced this Monday that the World Series will have 18 teams. The event will be played in two stages: the Play-Ins (qualifiers) and the Finals.

The Play-Ins will feature ten teams and will take place on May 14, with the top four teams reaching the finals. The final will take place on May 21 and will feature 12 teams (eight regional champions + four teams from the Play-Ins).
