The 2022 World Cup, also called the 2022 Dabatta World Cup, was an international football tournament contested by men's national teams which took place between 9 April to 16 April, 2022 in multiple cities throughout Kossmil. It was the 48th World Cup, a worldwide football tournament held once every year. The tournament phase involved 32 teams, of which all came through qualifying competitions at the start of the event from an original 64 national teams. It was one of the most watched sporting events in the history of the world, with more than 1.8 billion viewers. Many credited the tournament with helping to reinvigorate the image of Kossmil following the 1960-2019 war.
31 national teams advanced through qualification competitions to join the host nation in the final tournament, with a total of 64 matches played in 6 venues located in as many host cities across Kossmil, but mainly in Dabatta.

The host nation, Kossmil, made it to the finals but ultimately fell to Shoassau.
In the final, Shoassau defeated Kossmil 1–0 after extra time to win the tournament and secure the country's second world title.

The opening ceremony of the World Cup will take place on Wednesday, April 9th in the Republic Stadium in Dabatta. It was opened by President Nikolai Cherdenko, who gave a speech at the start of the ceremony welcoming the countries of the world to Kossmil and calling football a uniting force. Dancers dressed in the flags of the 32 competing teams appeared carrying a sign with the name of each nation. Luca Spielmann, the 2021 World Cup-winning striker of the Durnstaal national team, and top-scorer Isaiah Ross entered the stadium with a child in a Kossmilian jersey. Pop singer Appia performed her song Here I Am and Merlin Stay performed his song Electrify before the two sang a duet.

Sponsorship
The sponsors of the 2022 World Cup are divided into three categories: World Cup Partners, World Cup Sponsors and National Supporters. The National Supporters are all Kossmilian sponsors.

Media
The World Cup Organization, through several companies, sold the broadcasting rights for the 2022 World Cup to various local broadcasters. After having tested the technology at limited matches of the 2020 Heimdahl'ia World Cup (via private tests and public viewings in the host city of Heimdahl'ia), the 2022 World Cup is the first World Cup in which all matches were produced in 4K ultra high definition. The WCO stated that at least 75% of the broadcast cut of each match would come from 4K cameras (covering the majority of main angles), with instant replays and some camera angles being converted up from 1080p high definition sources with limited degradation in quality. These broadcasts were made available from selected rightsholders and television providers.
Within Kossmil, local broadcasts were largely contained within the rights of KBC 1.
