AEW Video Game Wishlist: 10 Things Fans Demand

10. Zippy Gameplay

It looks like 2K are doubling down on the sim approach in 2K22. If so, then AEW's game must do anything but! Early sounds coming out of the camp suggest that Yuke's fancy a much zippier gameplay style (think No Mercy-meets-Here Comes The Pain), which is promising.

Please, God. Please, make it happen.

All Elite's match style is pacy and urgent. This might p*ss a few people off to hear, but it's just one man's opinion: AEW wrestlers favour spots, and plenty of them. So, in the game, it's important that characters motor around the ring with speed and precision - an arcade spirit would be best here.

No clunky mini-games, no endless button prompts and no locked-in animations. No, no and no. AEW's title has to be easy to pick-up-and-play for all ages without being a button masher like 2K Battlegrounds. That's possible if Yuke's are patient and find the right balance.
