In a thrilling showdown between two Chinese esports powerhouses, AG.AL (All Gamers Anyone's Legend) emerged victorious over Baisha Gaming with a 3-2 scoreline at the 2025 Esports World Cup in Riyadh. The Sunday final showcased China's dominance in competitive gaming as both teams battled through five intense rounds of the popular tactical shooter CrossFire.
The victory reinforces China's growing influence in global esports, with CrossFire remaining a cultural phenomenon across Asia. The game's 1.1 billion registered users worldwide and high-stakes tournaments continue to drive innovation in competitive gaming infrastructure and training methodologies.
CrossFire's enduring appeal lies in its team-based strategy, where players choose between Global Risk and Black List factions across diverse combat scenarios. The EWC final demonstrated how tactical coordination and split-second decision-making separate elite teams in this US$1 million prize pool tournament.
This championship win positions AG.AL as a key player to watch in Asia's US$3 billion esports industry, while runner-up Baisha Gaming's performance highlights the depth of China's competitive gaming talent pool.
