    This game is a failure just like the promotion it's based on. They are trying to rob you if you think this is worth anymore than $20 bucks on any platform. I doubt anybody would even want to pirate it either since it's about as boring as the actual show

    It's highway robbery they're selling this game full price with only 6 matches. The story mode is lazy and the game looks like it came out 10 years ago.

    The game is unfinished, buggy, and looks terrible. This is a very bad game and the fanboys can act like it's not but it is bad.

    If a zero (0) is broken and unplayable, but its not. I give it a one (1) Its just full of glitches, the game feels unfinish , little to lack of match types, unnecessary mini games you could replace that mode with something else.

    Even wwe 2k on the switch is a running mess, but at least it gives us full entrance and tons of match types..... Thats the opposite of aew fight forever Why    If a zero (0) is broken and unplayable, but its not.

    Why would i want to buy wrestling games with an additional mode for mini games when i can play Wario or Everybody Switch. The company is already a clown show, and you need mini games to let people know it is a clown show?..... Yeah you have a story mode, that's what i hate about this and wwe as well. Give us Career! Not story!

    Nobody knows 80% of the people there, the commentary good god...... Was there even a commentary to begin with?? And better yet, why do you have dlc of a mini game and skins, but its not dlc for more additional wrestlers and match type? 2k should be conducting classes on, How make sports and wrestling games, 2k is still the king.    … Expand

    Buggy, bare bones, clearly unfinished, and above all else lazy. This is a desperate cash in by a company who thought they could fleece their fan base on nostalgia. The creation suite is woeful. The gameplay is dull and repetitive. Worse, there's been no mention or talk by the devs to fix it and they have the cheek to charge full price for an unfinished game. Just awful.

    AEW: Fight Forever marks the arrival of a new name on console wrestling games but other than a rather competent and fun career mode, this production suffers from several flaws that need to be corrected if AEW is going to make a name for itself on wrestling video games. The unexplainable absence of popular match types and varieties, the lack of several high profile wrestlers, a below par visual display and a high sales price, coupled with many DLC packages that should have been included, make AEW: Fight Forever a game that requires considerable improvements that need to be implemented before the next incarnation.

    Fans of All Elite Wrestling should feel quite comfortable within the sometimes goofy but always engaging AEW: Fight Forever. Technically, there’s room for improvement, but the game nails the AEW tone and arcade gameplay that are the reasons many wrestling game fans have been seeking for quite some time.

    While being a good first shot at the gaming market, AEW Fight Forever has too much mediocre parts to make it a good competitor for the WWE 2K Series.
