AEW: Fight Forever Adds Battle Royale With Stadium Stampede
The old joke of "When is battle royale coming?" is a reality again as AEW: Fight Forever adds Stadium Stampede mode to the game.
THQ Nordic and Yuke's Co. have revealed the latest addition to AEW: Fight Forever, as the game is getting battle royale with Stadium Stampede. A few years ago, the joke was, "So when are you adding Battle Royale mode?" Well, the joke is back and in full force, as it's been added to a wrestling game. The trailer, which you can check out down at the bottom, gives you about as good of an idea as you could expect for what you'll see in the game. It is utter chaos as you'll pick a wrestler from their roster and be dropped into a stadium with a wrestling ring and a ton of objects. Thirty of you will compete online at once as you'll have to choose your moves wisely and find weapons to help you when you can. As you KO people, they will be eliminated one by one as their health meter goes down on their wrestler, until only one of you survives.
Considering the name of the event and what's coming up in the schedule for AEW as a company, we're guessing this free mode will be released during or around July 15th, as they are going to hold Calgary Stampede on AEW Collision that night to crown the winners of the Owen Hart Cup, sponsored by the Owen Hart Foundation. Simply for the fact that the branding matches, it's too good of a chance for the company to pass up. But that's just a guess, we won't know until they actually release the content.
