Yesterday was a big day for AEW: Fight Forever news, as the pre-orders went live for the Xbox version (along with other platforms), and lots of gameplay footage began hitting the web from a variety of YouTubers.
Let's start with that footage. Specifically, there were a couple of videos that grabbed a significant amount of attention due to the crazy weapons on display, from skateboards to flaming tables and even bombs! It looks like a total blast to play with friends in particular, and we can't wait to try it for ourselves later this month.
In addition to this, there's an IGN preview showing off a bit of the Road to Elite career mode, with the outlet describing the game as "simple pick-up-and-play fun that wrestling games used to be, even if it is a bit rough around the edges."
And finally, those Xbox pre-orders are now live. You can grab the standard version of AEW: Fight Forever for £49.99 / $59.99 with a pre-order bonus including two versions of Matt Hardy, while the special Elite Edition features one-day early access, some extra mini-games, and the DLC characters of FTR, The Bunny, Keith Lee, Hook and Danhausen for £62.99 / $71.99.
There's not long to go now - AEW: Fight Forever launches for Xbox on June 29th, 2023!

Crazy, dumb fun. That's what we needed in a wrestling game.
I really want to play this game, but I can't bring myself to pay £50-60 on games. I'll wait for a sale or for it to hopefully appear on gamepass.
Wait for a deal, and I'll get it.
Reminds me of the old wrestling games back on the PS2, Nintendo. Oh man, RAW, NWO, there's this other one I can't remember but it had my fave wrestler, HULK HOGAN. (Entry song in my head ahha)
‘Thanks guys’
As MJF would say this game looks mid.
Man this game looks amazing. I was going to get wwe2k, but I'd rather go with this one.
@FraserG Is FTR, The Bunny Keith Lee, Hook and Danhausen available at launch with the Elite Edition cause from my understanding they are Season Pass which will come later.
@The-Grezzly-Bear It's already been confirmed it's not coming to Game Pass.
@Tasuki I haven't seen confirmation either way of this. The press materials that we were sent don't mention it either.
@Fenbops The tag line for the game should have been "Better than 2K and you know it" lol.
@FraserG Hmm interesting. AEW Games on their Twitter account said Season Pass for FTR and the rest and the accompanied video looked like a road map.
@Tasuki I know it's been confirmed that it won't be on gamepass at launch, but did they say it would NEVER come to gamepass?
I think this looks pretty good. I may even do what I don't usually do.... Preorder. 😱😱😱🤣
I might have to buy this on everything that can run it… it looks so fun.
@The-Grezzly-Bear Yes they did.

This also seems like a good time to share that we don't anticipate AEW: Fight Forever being part of any monthly gaming subscription services."
@Tasuki fair enough then 🙂. I'll wait for a sale/price drop.
