“One of the first things I did after signing with AEW was to ask Tony Khan to let me help assemble the best gaming team on the planet, to make the best wrestling game ever,” said Kenny Omega, co-executive vice president of AEW. “Well, we just landed the perfect finisher by partnering with global publishing and distribution powerhouse THQ Nordic for AEW: Fight Forever. The THQ brand has long been synonymous with wrestling games – there is simply no more qualified partner to bring AEW: Fight Forever to the millions of wrestling fans the world over.”
While the THQ Nordic Showcase is scheduled for next week, it seems the gameplay trailer had been leaked early seemingly from the Xbox listing. The trailer shows off a brief match between Adam Cole and Britt Baker alongside various minigames.
