Report: Kenny Omega 'Hating' Working With YUKE'S On AEW Fight Forever
A difficult relationship between Kenny Omega and YUKE'S
May 4, 2022
While AEW Fight Forever - the promotion's console game - is tentatively scheduled to be released this year, development of the title doesn't appear to have been simple for AEW, YUKE'S or Kenny Omega.
According to Sports Gamers Online, the relationship between YUKE'S and AEW 'isn't in the best place at the moment', with Kenny Omega reportedly 'hating' working with the developer. One individual close to the game's development even said that it appeared YUKE'S had tried to 'take advantage' of Omega.
Fight Forever is also believed to be 'way over budget' and several of the game's features have been cut altogether or reduced. A particular issue was reportedly the game's roster size, with a recent report from Fightful Select noting the title has 50 playable characters.
Extra investment has been put into the title.
If AEW and YUKE'S will continue their partnership following Fight Forever is ultimately up in the air, with the developer said to be pushing for a long-term agreement, something AEW are nervous about.
A recent report also noted there will be 'notable omissions' from AEW Fight Forever. Find out more here.
