Given an early build of the game has only just been shown at both Gamescom and the Tokyo Game Show, and no concrete date was nailed down, it’s looking like plans have changed. AEW wrestler and Executive Vice President, Kenny Omega, echoed the earlier sentiment in an April podcast, saying, he is “hoping” that the game remains on track for “this year” – meaning 2022. In further comments with Fightful in June, Omega outlined how “the creative process is almost complete.” “We know how the matches will flow, we know some of the systems, it’s now in a process of being tuned.

Still a lot of stuff to implement. But our guys now at Yuke’s are working at a blistering pace.” Doubling down once again, the former AEW champ remained “hopeful” that they can stay on schedule “to make sure [they] get the game out this year.” A few weeks later and a leaked store listing on Amazon UK further reinforced the notion of a 2022 launch.

While no exact date was provided on this store page, a placeholder of December 31, 2022, indicates a planned launch for the final quarter of the year. We’ll have to wait and see if the project remains on track in these coming weeks but if not, it appears an early 2023 launch could be in the cards.

As confirmed through the Gamescom stream, we know for certain each wrestler will have their own entrance. Better yet, players can manually trigger pyro and special effects during these animations too. While it’s not the full walk to the ring as we’d see on TV, the brief opening does appear to include some official AEW themes like Adam Cole’s and Kenny Omega’s.

AEW GamesEach wrestler comes equipped with their own signature and finisher moves in Fight Forever. In moment-to-moment gameplay, players have access to all the familiar strikes, grappling moves, and counters you’d expect. Each wrestler also comes with their own set of finishers and signatures that require special inputs to execute.

While not entirely confirmed, it appears we may be able to select our own powerful moves in the future and assign them to certain wrestlers. As you damage your opponent with various moves, a momentum bar will fill on screen. With a full bar, you’re then able to trigger one of the aforementioned signature moves.

While a ‘Create a Wrestler’ mode has been discussed, and we know a range of minigames are set to be included, we’re yet to hear about game modes like General Manager, or a multiplayer ranking system.

A Story/Career Mode is reportedly in the works, however, according to Fightful Select. This storyline supposedly includes input from multiple wrestlers and could already have some unique music locked in, made by none other than AEW’s Mikey Rukus. The likes of Orange Cassidy and John Silver reportedly did some voiceover work for the story mode, with MJF also writing a promo just for the game.

On top of this, we also know Fight Forever will come with a number of quirky minigames completely different to the in-ring style. From Simon Says (Penta Says)-style modes to a baseball game, there’s plenty to look forward to here.
AEW Fight Forever Match Types
Official match types to be featured in the AEW console game haven’t yet been confirmed through official channels, although Kenny Omega has said: “We have a lot of match types,” without going into any specifics.

Obviously, we imagine many more will be revealed in time. AEW has a roster of over 100 wrestlers, with the possibility of even more when we consider their ownership of former rival Ring of Honor (ROH). This could also see ROH wrestlers appearing in AEW Fight Forever, as several have already appeared on AEW’s TV shows.

However, the developers have said that the game will include 50 wrestlers when it launches. This means the game is only likely to include performers who appear on the main roster (AEW Dynamite and Rampage) at first, although more could be added in DLC expansions.
