Report: AEW Fight Forever Roster To Have 'Notable Omissions'

Ahead of the AEW Games sneak peek of Fight Forever, further details have emerged about the promotion's upcoming console game.

According to Fightful Select, Kenny Omega has gone 'above and beyond' during his time out of action and made sure he was able to help with the game in any way possible. The addition of Hideyuki "Geta" Iwashita - the director of WWF No Mercy - has also proved valuable for Fight Forever's development.

Fightful noted that Fight Forever's roster is approximately 50 playable characters with Sting, CM Punk, Bryan Danielson, Ruby Soho, and Adam Cole all confirmed for the video game. Owen Hart will be a playable character too, as reported by Cassidy Haynes of Bodyslam.net. 

There will be 'some unfortunate notable omissions' from Fight Forever's roster when the title is first released, though, according to Fightful. Who exactly will be missing from the game is unknown but AEW consistently sign talent and the likes of Keith Lee, Swerve Strickland, Samoa Joe, and Toni Storm have joined the promotion in 2022 alone. 

In regards to the game's development, much work is still to be done on polish, especially with character models. Development of the game's online features are still being worked on too. 

No publisher has been confirmed for AEW Fight Forever either but THQ Nordic are said to be involved with the video game. Their involvement has been minimal so far, though.
