It's an ok design. I'm a little bit disappointed with it.

oh definitely... it's not very good :unsure: looks like they just copy/pasted a trophy image onto random shapes

not to mention you literally cannot tell where this will be by just looking at it... no host nation(s) mention, nothing even remotely close to any identifiable national colors / patterns, etc... it's all bad, not to mention it literally looks like a copy of the LA28 emblem template but worse

Looks like it's not just for 2026 going on the FIFA official article:

https://www.fifa.com/fifaplus/en/articles/world-cup-2026-official-brand-unveiled-canada-mexico-usa-celebration-football-diversity

"forming an innovative design language that anchors the FIFA World Cup™ emblem for 2026 and beyond. The image of the trophy and the year allow for customisation to reflect the uniqueness of each host, while building an identifiable brand structure for years to come."

Sounds like it'll be a new generic logo for the World Cup as a whole, with only the block numbers changing each time. A bit like the Eurovision logo, where only the flag & surrounding design changes each time, the generic logo stays the same.

Well... I did guessed that would be the trophy here with the numbers but an PNG was definitely not expected, Jesus Christ!

This was always going to be a difficult logo due to the 3 different host countries, so a more generic logo was always on the cards. This says LA28 to me as well.

I wonder if we will see the flags of the 3 countries being used as the colours of the 26 going forward. It's ok, but lacks the creativity of previous logos.

After seeing the presentation, I think the shapes and colors used in the branding are cool but the PNG in the middle could be replaced with the 2002 logo, some stylization in the trophy would really increase this one grades...

I'm tired of this stupid minimalist trend and the fact they are not even trying anymore with brands. Not just FIFA but the Olympics also are giving me this feel as of late (Paris at least its trying a bit more but....)

Its a literal PNG plastered over a badly drawn number 26. That's it. That's the logo.

Reminder that a """professional"" firm got paid thousands for this.

Although I agree the emblem itself is very minimalist, when you look at the brand activation we have seen so far the brand itself seems to have great potential.

Furthermore, the actual use of the emblem during the event itself is usually minimal. 

So I am willing to wait and see on this one.
