In the ever-evolving world of sports and esports, the boundaries between reality and the digital realm continue to blur. This phenomenon is epitomized by the recent addition of an emote in Free Fire celebrating a significant moment from the T20 World Cup 2024. 

The new emote, aptly named “Champion’s Walk,” captures the iconic celebration of T20 World Cup-winning captain Rohit Sharma. Rohit’s memorable celebration occurred during the trophy presentation ceremony after India’s thrilling victory in the T20 World Cup 2024.

After receiving the trophy from International Cricket Council (ICC) chairperson Greg Barclay, Rohit made a stylish entrance to the podium, lifting the trophy with a dramatic flourish. This moment has now been digitized and incorporated into Free Fire, allowing players to relive Rohit’s triumphant walk in the virtual arena.

Here is the video:

Lionel Messi has started the trend!

The introduction of the Champion’s Walk emote signifies a broader trend of integrating notable sports moments into video games. This trend is not new, as seen in the past with other sports figures like Lionel Messi.

Messi’s slow-walk celebration after Argentina’s victories in the FIFA World Cup 2022 and Copa America has also been immortalized in the digital space, showcasing how sports and esports can intersect to celebrate significant achievements.

Notably, this memorable celebration is now an emote named Champion’s Walk in Free Fire, available for select characters. Players will need to unlock these characters to use this emote without the character players will not be able to use this iconic show.
