You might be reading this on a cold December day, but the FIFA World Cup is just six months away!

Join the football fever with Playbook Fusion as we debut our Playbook Football World Cup title to delegates at ICE 2026.

Playbook Football World Cup is based on our Playbook Football title, which has taken online sportsbook lobbies by storm since hitting the market in summer 2025.

Playbook Football is a unique, real-money, virtual football management betting game where players build their own teams, place bets, earn points, receive in-game rewards, climb divisions and compete on leaderboards.

Unlike traditional sports betting, it creates long-term engagement through squad-building mechanics inspired by popular mobile sports gaming franchises like FC Ultimate Team andChampionship Manager.
It has persistent progression systems, offers daily rewards, weekly leaderboards and allows in-game purchases, including Player Packs using PBF Coins, the in-game currency which is
earned by placing bets.

As the name suggests, Playbook Football World Cup is based on the most iconic football tournament on the planet, allowing operators to leverage World Cup fever.

Just as with the original game, players build their own ultimate international team in a bid to win the World Cup by progressing through knock-out format gameplay. They can also purchase and unlock packs of International Player Cards, allowing them to build and improve their team while also taking advantage of daily campaigns and content drops
throughout the tournament.

If Playbook Football’s early success is anything to go by, Playbook Football World Cup will help sportsbook operators go for goal and score their most successful World Cup to date.
