What was the name of FIFA 06’s World Cup-themed companion game?

The story behind the answer

FIFA 06’s World Cup-themed companion game was titled 2006 FIFA World Cup.

Electronic Arts released the game in 2006 to coincide with the tournament in Germany. It was a separate licensed football title rather than simply an update or mode inside FIFA 06. The game included the official 2006 World Cup tournament and national teams associated with qualification and international competition.

The title was released across several platforms, including PlayStation 2, Xbox, Xbox 360, GameCube, Nintendo DS, PlayStation Portable, and Windows. Its branding followed the official tournament name instead of using the regular annual FIFA numbering.

This game is often confused with FIFA 06 because both were released during the same football season. FIFA 06 was the standard annual simulation, while 2006 FIFA World Cup was the dedicated tournament product.
