Samsung OLED FC Tournament: Experience Championship Gaming Unfold in Vivid Detail on March 27
on March 20, 2026
Samsung is calling all gaming enthusiasts worldwide to watch elite gamers compete during an upcoming hybrid EA SPORTS FC™ 26 Clubs event. Top gamers from four of Europe’s top footballing countries will battle for championship glory on March 27 during Samsung’s Virtual OLED FC tournament.
During the event, team captains will compete on stage in front of a live audience at Samsung KX in London, 7pm GMT, while remote players will compete and be able to watch all the action via the Samsung Odyssey Twitch channel. Whether attending in-person or joining remotely, fans will experience all the thrills of the game in stunning detail, through Samsung’s latest OLED display technology.
No Breaks, No Excuses: The OLED Advantage
Samsung’s latest OLED lineup will power every moment of the tournament. On the main stage, the 65-inch and 83-inch S90F TVs will deliver 4K at 144Hz with 0.03ms response time for ultra-smooth gameplay at lightning-fast speed, so every tactical movement will hit without delay.
The glare-free OLED panel and AI-powered picture and sound ensure spectators catch every critical detail whether it’s a defender positioning in the shadows, open passes, or all the angles that separate good players from championship players.
Meanwhile, competitors in the Gaming Bus area within KX will leverage the 27-inch OLED G60SF monitor. At 500Hz refresh rate with 0.03ms response time, the monitor redraws the image 500 times per second to deliver instant response when players make their moves.
The QD-OLED provides vivid color and 300 nits brightness, so every scene comes alive in vivid detail. Samsung OLED Safeguard+ provides reliable protection for the monitor, minimizing the risk of burn-in during extended use, such as throughout a tournament.
OLED FC: Four Teams, Six Qualifying Matches, One Grand Final
All four teams will compete head-to-head in six qualifying matches, with points awarded for wins, individual performance, team play and more. The top two teams will advance to a best-of-three championship final.
Meet the Teams
- Team UK: Bateson87 (Captain), AuzioMF, Shauna Games
- Team France: RockY (Captain), Thip, MaatM
- Team Germany: FeelGamingTV (Captain), Gamer Brother, FaroooYT

Team captains will compete on the main stage at Samsung KX, rotating from the side area where the Gaming Bus is positioned between matches. Remote team members will support their on-site team captain while co-streaming their gameplay on personal channels as part of the main Samsung Odyssey broadcast.
Two gaming stars will provide live commentary as the tournament unfolds: professional EA SPORTS FC™ 26 commentator Brandon Smith (BSmith) will co-host with Daniel Gaskin (Gaskin), who won Esports Color Caster of the Year in 2023 for his professional analysis.
Immersive Audience Experiences
Designated audience play areas at the venue will invite attendees to experience gameplay on the exact Samsung displays powering OLED FC. Between tournament rounds, selected audience members will be chosen to join friendly matches as additional team members, turning spectators into active participants in the competition.
Throughout the tournament, viewers will have the chance to win a 27-inch Odyssey OLED G6 500Hz monitor and an 83-inch OLED S90F Smart TV. The giveaway winner will be announced at 9pm, GMT.
To be part of the OLED FC tournament, tune in via the Samsung Odyssey Twitch channel: twitch.tv/samsungodyssey on March 27 at 7pm, GMT.
