Gameplay

AEW Fight Forever is a wrestling fighting game that will differentiate itself from its competition by having a more arcadey feel compared to the more common sports simulation feel that most wrestling games today have. It features real-life wrestlers from the AEW wrestling promotion and its sister promotion, Ring of Honor.

Intergender wrestling has also been confirmed meaning there's no limitation on who you can use in any mode.

The game will feature different match types, like Single, Tag Team, 3-Way, 4-Way, Ladder, Casino Battle Royale, Falls Count Anywhere, Unsanctioned Lights Out, and Exploding Barbed Wire Deathmatch. The game will have a Career Mode and Online Multiplayer, and will feature customizable wrestlers, tag teams, entrances, arenas, and move sets. Blood will also be in the game via a setting you can turn on/off.

There is also a whole suite of mini-games to play. 15 will be available at launch, and another 4 with DLC. The game currently has a roster of 60 characters, including DLC.
