While esports battles raged on inside the stc Gaming Hall, Week 3 of the Esports World Cup Festival reminded everyone that this tournament is just as much about the fans as it is about the champions. The Boulevard buzzed with excitement, laughter, and camera flashes as visitors explored a blend of thrilling attractions, peaceful corners, and fan-favorite experiences from gaming legends to anime dreams.
One of the biggest crowd-pullers was the One Piece photo setup in Japan Park. With Luffy’s Egghead Island outfit on display and a backdrop that looked straight out of the Grand Line, fans queued up for hours just to snap that perfect moment with their favorite pirate crew. It was more than just a picture. For many, it was a memory stamped with the magic of anime and adventure.
Just a short walk away, screams were echoing from the haunted house inside Content Creator Park. But not the terrified kind. These were the excited, giggling screams of fans caught between mannequins and shadowy props that told eerie, twisted stories. Designed with just the right mix of creepiness and charm, the haunted house became a must-visit for every thrill-seeker on the Boulevard.
Meanwhile, over at the stc Gaming Hall, India’s very own Team SouL had fans showing up in droves at the S8UL booth. After dominating recent tournaments like the Haier G-League and BGMI Masters Series Season 3, their presence was electric. Autographs were signed, selfies were snapped, and the booth itself became a celebration of Indian mobile esports making waves globally.
But the festival was not just about fast clicks and fierce plays. Japan Park offered a soothing counterpoint with its origami classes. Visitors sat down to fold delicate paper into flowers, animals, and vases. It was a gentle pause amid the chaos, where laughter came soft and focused, and hands learned something timeless.
To top it all off, the Falcons Zone in Content Creator Park gave fans a rare chance to interact directly with their favorite streamers and pro players. The energy in the air was infectious as creators mingled with the crowd, creating moments that felt spontaneous, real, and unforgettable.
This was a week where gaming met culture, thrills met serenity, and esports fans from all walks of life came together under one vibrant sky. Week 3 was more than just a festival. It was a living, breathing world built for fans to play, connect, and dream together.
