For more news on the game make sure to hit up our game page. Our most recent article breaks down the gameplay footage from Gamescom a couple of months ago.

In this video, we get our first look at how extensive the movesets look in the menu and just how realistic each move looks. It appears wrestlers can have up to five finishers and five signature moves. To build up a special, you have to wear your opponent down while building up your meter. It looks precisely like No Mercy. The moves in Fight Forever look realistic too. For example, Kenny Omega hitting the One-Winged Angel looked picture perfect. When he took it one step further and did the avalanche version, I marked out. The arcade thud and animation as he hit the mat added a unique touch. The replays looked cool as well.
