This event promises an inspirational experience for participants, combining physical and digital challenges in a way that only Dubai can offer.

Dubai’s recent launch of the Dubai Program for Gaming 2033 underscores the city’s commitment to attracting global technology giants and fostering digital, gaming, and experiential talent. This initiative positions Dubai as a hub for innovation and excellence, aligning perfectly with the goals of the Games of the Future.

The excitement surrounding the Games has already sparked interest in future editions, with bids for the Games of the Future 2026 and 2027 underway.

The Games of the Future 2025 will not only be a showcase of phygital sports but also a testament to Dubai’s commitment to innovation, technology, and sports. As the city prepares to welcome athletes and fans from around the world, it continues to solidify its status as a global hub for cutting-edge developments.
