World Cup is a series of association football video games developed and released annually by Orbis Games. The game is incredibly popular throughout the world and due to it's exclusive partnership with the World Cup it has little to no competition.

The series first game, Giustino Milano Presents: World Cup 1995, also known as just World Cup 1995, was the first ever officially licensed World Cup game, and would end up pushing Orbis Games to the forefront. The first ever cover athlete for the game was Lissathan star Giustino Milano, who would be the cover athlete for the first four games, and the most recent is Anton Petrov.

After World Cup 03 the game expanded to not just focus on the World Cup, but on various leagues around the world that the game had obtained the licenses for, massively expanding the games scope and appeal.
