AEW: Fight Forever isn’t Ready to Release Just Yet, THQ Nordic Says

THQ Nordic's global senior community manager Per Hollenbo says the game is making good progress, but hasn't quite hit the finish line yet.

Fans of wrestling games have enjoyed a recent resurgence of the genre, thanks primarily to the return to form for the WWE 2K series, and while the recently-released WWE 2K23 is being enjoyed by many right now, there’s more still to look forward to in the coming months. AEW: Fight Forever is a game many have had their eye on for a while, thanks in no small part to the fact that it’s being developed by Yuke’s- but exactly when can we expect it to launch?

Officially, it has a 2023 release window, and though a specific launch date has to to be announced, when AEW president Tony Khan recently said that the game’s development was done and its release was imminent, expectations for an announcement promptly rose. However, publisher THQ Nordic has poured a little bit of water on those flames.

Responding to reports about the game’s release on Twitter, THQ Nordic’s global senior community manager Per Hollenbo recently said that though AEW: Fight Forever is making good progress behind the scenes, it’s still not quite ready to release yet.

“I mean, if you want an unfinished game, sure, we could release now,” he wrote. “The game is doing really well and is getting there, but not 100% yet, so yeah, just another rumour on Twitter I fear.”

Presumably that would suggest that an announcement of a specific release date might still be a little bit further off than some had recently assumed.

Either way, AEW: Fight Forever is due out sometime this year, and will be available for PS5, Xbox Series X/S, PS4, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, and PC.
