Background

The first wildcard team was announced on 16 February 2025, Moroccan side Ultra Chmicha after the country's semi-final performance at the 2025 Kings World Cup Nations. France would be announced as the hosts for the competition on 24 March 2025, during the Kings League France team introduction and draft.

Format

The 2025 Kings World Cup Clubs retained the format of the 2024 tournament, which included features of a Swiss-system tournament.
;First stage

In the first round, the 32 teams each play one match, with the pairings decided by a random draw, with no restrictions based on nation coincidence.
All teams advance to the second round, with the teams that won their first-round match going to a 'winner bracket' and the teams that lost going to a 'loser bracket'.
The teams of the 'winner bracket' that win their second round match will immediately qualify for the knockout stage, while the losing teams will face the winning teams from the 'loser bracket' in a last-chance round. The winners of the last-chance round will join the 'winner bracket' second-round winners in the knockout stage.

;Knockout Stage

The knockout phase will then consist of a round of 16, quarterfinals, semifinals and a final.
