AEW and pro wrestling star Kenny Omega still hopes that AEW Fight Forever will still be released this year.

Speaking to Fightful, Omega not only revealed that the “creative process is almost complete”, but he still has hopes that the game developed by Yukes will still be on track to release this year. However, Omega is overseeing the project, I firmly believe that he will delay the game if needs be. So I wouldn’t be surprised if that happens.

“…with the go-getters at Yuke’s and the guys on our side and Geta [Hideyuki “Geta” Iwashita] and his old contacts that have hopped on board and helped push us to the finish line we, hopefully, can be on schedule to make sure we get this game out by this year. Hopefully. Fingers crossed.”

Furthermore, when speaking to Sports Illustrated, Omega also revealed that Cody Rhodes will still be a playable character in the game. Earlier this year, Cody Rhodes left AEW, a company he helped create and made his triumphant return to WWE at WrestleMania 38.

“I was very passionate about making sure his legacy and position within the company were preserved,” said Omega. “We’ve built this game from the ground up, starting everything from scratch.

He continued: “That’s why I thought this game could coincide with the birth of this company. You get to experience AEW from the beginning, from day one. The game is going to reflect a lot of that, even though our locker room is ever-changing.”

AEW Fight Forever will be released for PC, PlayStation and Xbox. Are you looking forward to the pro wrestling grappler? Let us know across our social media channels.
