Ahead of THQ Nordic’s Digital Showcase on August 12, some new information on the AEW: Fight Forever video game has been revealed.
All Elite Wrestling‘s first ever video game will reportedly be released later this year. Former WWE Games developer Yuke’s has been working with All Elite Wrestling to create a game that was described early on as No Mercy meets Here Comes The Pain.
THQ Nordic will be publishing the game, although they have yet to make that announcement officially. AEW EVP Kenny Omega confirmed this news back in June during a CEO gaming scream.
Today the website Xtralife has released new information on AEW: Fight Forever, including brand new screenshots, a potential cover, and so much more, although some of the wordage seems to be incomplete.
The following is a much more in-depth description of the game over at the website Gematsu:
