AEW held a special episode of 2.Show during the fest. With Evil Uno, Jungle Boy, Aubrey Edwards, and The Bunny on the panel, it saw a close-up reveal of Jungle Boy's character mode followed by footage of him wrestling Darby Allin. Click here to check it out.

AEW already has two mobile games on the market: AEW Casino: Double Or Nothing and AEW Elite General Manager. Kenny Omega has previously stated that the console game could release in 2022's first quarter, though this was back in February and there's no word on whether or not it is still a realistic target.

Details on the console game have been scant so far. Developed in collaboration with Yuke's and WWF No Mercy director Hideyuki 'Geta' Iwashita, it has benefitted from AEW owner and founder Tony Khan investing an eight-figure sum of his own money into it, though details have only come via drip-feed thus far.

Neither of America's major wrestling promotions will release a console game in 2021, with WWE pushing WWE 2K22 back into March 2022.
