The 2025 Kings World Cup Nations was an international seven-a-side football tournament based on the Kings League format created by Gerard Piqué and Ibai Llanos. Unlike the Kings World Cup launched in 2024, which is a club competition, this tournament saw players from the different versions of the Kings League forming teams to represent their respective nations, similar to the FIFA World Cup.

Before the start of the 2024-2025 season, in an introductory video for the campaign uploaded on 7 September 2024. A second international tournament, the Kings World Cup Nations was announced, this time with players forming national teams to represent their countries.^[1] During the launch event for the Kings League Italy on 18 November 2024, it was confirmed that Italy would be hosting the tournament, held from 1 to 12 January 2025, with the finals taking place in Turin's Juventus Stadium.^[2]

Format

The 2025 Kings World Cup Nations retains the format of the 2024 Kings World Cup tournament, which included features of a Swiss-system tournament but with only 16 teams.

First stage

In the first round, the 16 teams each play one match, with the pairings decided by a random draw with no restrictions.
All teams advance to the second round, with the teams that won their first-round match going to a 'winner bracket' and the teams that lost going to a 'loser bracket'.
The winners of the 'winner bracket' in the second round advance to the knockout stage, while the losing teams will face the winning teams from the 'loser bracket' in a last-chance round. The winners of the last-chance round will secure the remaining places to the knockout stage.

Knockout stage

The knockout phase then consist of a quarterfinals, semifinals and a final.

Competing teams

As usual in the Kings League, each national team was chaired by a streamer or a football related personality.

Spain and Mexico, the countries that host the Kings League and the Américas Kings League, were the first two national teams confirmed.^[3]
