The 2022 eMLS season features 27 professional EA SPORTS FIFA players, each representing an MLS club, on the virtual pitch as they compete for their share of the record-setting $75,000 season prize pool. Competition will take place on EA SPORTS FIFA 22 and will be played exclusively on PlayStation®5 (PS5™), marking eMLS’s debut season played on the next-generation console.
Following League Series 2, the top 12 eMLS players will then compete to be crowned the 2022 season champion at eMLS Cup in March. The first 11 competitors in the field will be determined by total season qualifier points from League Series events and the final participant will be the winner of the Last Change Qualifier tournament.
The top three eMLS Cup finishers will receive direct seats to the EA SPORTS Global Series Playoffs on the Road to the FIFAe World Cup.
