Team Liquid is setting a new precedent in esports by teaming up with UNICEF for an exciting development in the gaming world. The renowned esports organization has introduced an in-game kit in EA Sports FC 26 that aims to spotlight UNICEF’s dedication to education and children’s human rights. This marks a significant milestone as it is the first instance of the UNICEF logo being featured on the kit of an esports organization within the game. Players of EA Sports FC 26 can showcase their support for children’s rights by acquiring this unique kit through an objective in the game’s Ultimate Team mode.
Unveiling the Partnership
Launching on December 3rd, 2025, this collaboration is an integral part of the broader partnership between Team Liquid and UNICEF, which officially kicked off on November 7th. The kit’s presence in the game not only enhances the visual appeal but also serves as a powerful tool to promote children’s rights globally. According to Victor Goossens, Founder and Co-CEO of Team Liquid, aligning with UNICEF’s mission through this initiative is a prestigious opportunity that resonates deeply with the esports and gaming communities. The organization’s EA FC Roster will proudly don the digital kit on the virtual pitch, setting the stage for another season filled with potential triumphs.
Team Liquid In 2025
Throughout 2025, Team Liquid has been making waves in the esports industry, broadening its influence and reach. In May, the organization expanded its presence by acquiring Team Gullit, a team named after the legendary footballer Ruud Gullit, to strengthen its standing in the EA Sports FC scene. November marked their foray back into Apex Legends esports, thanks to a partnership with Alienware, as they prepared for participation in the upcoming Apex Legends Global Series Championship in early 2026. The collaboration with UNICEF is part of a continued effort to advocate for the rights and education of children worldwide. In a recent initiative, Dutch footballer and UNICEF Ambassador Xavi Simons engaged in a livestream fundraising event to emphasize the critical importance of these issues.
