The principal wrestling partner/consultant is the iconic Jeff Jarrett, and he was at PAX East this year greeting fans and even getting into some trouble in the ring. It was crazy, surreal, amazing beyond belief. In fact at the show this year, they had a full-sized ring set up and even a wrestling lineup for the weekend.

Early on they developed relationships with iconic wrestlers and their estates so as to add them to the game, which is something that will excite many wrestling fans around the world. At the time I spoke to some of the team, who are all mega wrestling fans. WrestleQuest was a game I checked out at PAX East 2020 as well. The other is a unique fantasy world-RPG take on the genre that was as refreshing and fun in a different way. One is a bombastic and over-the-top adventure RPG with tons of licensed wrestlers.

While at PAX East I was lucky enough to try both games and talk to the developers as they get closer to releasing their visions. Much like those film pairs, these two games may be about the same thing (in this case wrestling of course), but they are completely different experiences. We had Armageddon and Deep Impact, Dante’s Peak and Volcano – and now Wrestle Quest and Wrestle Story. In media it seems things always release in pairs.
