Esports World Cup: Level Up, the five-part docuseries from Emmy-winning filmmaker R.J. Cutler (Billie Eilish: The World’s a Little Blurry, Elton John: Never Too Late, Martha), is now streaming for free on Prime Video’s official YouTube channel.

The Level Up series, produced by This Machine (part of Sony Pictures Television) in partnership with the Esports World Cup Foundation (EWCF), offers an unprecedented look behind the scenes of the world’s largest esports and gaming festival, redefining what it means to be a champion in the digital age. A second season is now confirmed, continuing the story of the EWC and the next generation of Clubs and players shaping the future of global esports.

In the first season, Level Up captures human stories of the competition.

In the Philippines, 19-year-old Sanford of Team Liquid fights for his family after tragedy strikes, while Drazah of Atlanta FaZe traces his rise from a small shed in Alaska to the global stage. Indonesian sisters Chel and Cinny of Team Vitality lead a dominant women’s team even as personal loss tests their resolve.

Beyond the players, Yevhen Zolotarov of NAVI competes to support a war-torn Ukraine, and Mossad Aldossary, the 24-year-old CEO of Team Falcons, shoulders the hopes of a nation as he strives to keep the championship at home in Riyadh.

Together, their stories reveal what truly drives esports’ greatest figures, not just victory, but purpose, pride, and resilience.
