AEW released its first-ever video game, titled “Fight Forever,” in July 2023. The game has received mixed reviews from both fans and critics. Although AEW President and CEO Tony Khan has kept the possibility of a future game release open, there has been no recent update on this front.
According to Sean Ross Sapp in the latest edition of Fightful Select Answers, when asked about the status of AEW developing another video game, he noted that the company has “learned some major lessons” from Fight Forever. Sapp does not anticipate the release of another game anytime soon. He also mentioned that AEW is unlikely to announce a new game as far in advance as they did with Fight Forever, which was announced without a name in 2020, three years prior to its release.
Sapp reiterated previous reports that AEW retains the rights to the game engine should they choose to create a new title. Fight Forever featured arcade-style gameplay reminiscent of games like WWF No Mercy; however, it faced criticism for its limited modes and customization options.
