All Elite Wrestling and THQ Nordic are looking to make a big splash with the upcoming release of AEW Fight Forever by launching on Xbox Game Pass.
All Elite Wrestling’s first console game had its first big reveal to the video game world back in August by publisher THQ Nordic. Fight Forever went on to win the Best Sports/Racing Game Award at this year’s Gamescom, but there has been little to no information on the game since.
There is good news for the game on the horizon, however, as numerous sources have informed me that when AEW Fight Forever is released, it will be part of the Xbox Game Pass on day one. This will give All Elite Wrestling’s first video game a massive boost in accessibility right out of the gate.
By launching on Xbox Game Pass, AEW Fight Forever will be available to over 25 million subscribers on Microsoft’s subscription service. This will be the first licensed wrestling game that has ever been made available on Xbox Game Pass. It’s currently unknown at this time as to when THQ Nordic or All Elite Wrestling will make the official announcement, as we still haven’t gotten an official release date for the game.
AEW Fight Forever is being developed by Yuke’s and is currently scheduled to be released on Xbox Series X/S, Xbox One, Playstation 5, Playstation 4, Nintendo Switch, and PC.
Excalibur announced on an episode of AEW Dark in September that the game would be released this fall, but considering that we’re in November and still don’t have an official date, that’s looking increasingly unlikely.

Update: The AEW Games Twitter account has responded to the story and wrote that they “don’t anticipate” the game being on any monthly subscription services. However, the account noted that a new and exclusive update would be announced during AEW Full Gear on Saturday, November 19.
I'm not going to get in an argument or debate with anyone. But I just want to be clear that I stand by my story that I reported yesterday as I had it confirmed by multiple sources. That's the last I'll say on this subject for now.
