The AEW: Fight Forever Elite Edition ($79.99), which will be available for both console and PC:
Early Access (24-hour/available Wednesday, June 28 - only for consoles)
Matt Hardy and Broken Matt Hardy roster additions
Six more amazing AEW in-game roster wrestlers: Dax Harwood, Cash Wheeler, The Bunny, Keith Lee, HOOK and Danhausen
PLUS four mini-games inspired by the biggest wrestlers in AEW
https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/1913210/view/3665415235993373646
Guess that confirms no pre-order / early access for Steam. Booo.
I was watching a Fight Forever PC stream on Twitch over the weekend and on first launch from Steam it asks if you want to link your Epic Games account to enable cross-play between Steam/Epic friends, so I guess that means it'll be available at some point on Epic Games Store too.

No, the Elite Edition is only a digital option.
4. Will Matt Hardy be available to all players post launch? If so, will it only be for a limited time?
This DLC will be released on release day June 29.

I have a question. Do existing wrestlers also get stat ups for doing career mode or just the cash or whatever? Like can I transform Hangman into some 110 OVR Shin Hangman by eating unfortunate looking enchilada plates
Just coins (in lieu of stats upgrades) - existing characters stats are permalocked to whatever they shipped with. You can edit their move sets though (but not change the skills necessary for some types of moves)

Is there a way to run out of the ring to the floor (other than on a skateboard)? If so, I can't seem to find the buttons/timing - closest I can get is running to the ropes and hitting L2, which then steps me to the outside of the apron but not to the floor.
Same question for running back into the ring too

is there a way to go from certain moves right into a pin? Like a moonsault or power bomb?
For some moves (like the Code Red) it gives you a LB/L1 prompt while the move is executing for if you want to land in a pin*.
*may only apply to signatures and specials?

YUKES may have access to the closest American equivalent (Richie Rich on the most primo coke) but it’s not quite the same. How committed is THQ / TK to making FF an actual Game as a Service?
This is totally speculation on my part but the combination of TK bring an investor in Epic Games (outside of AEW/Fight Forever) who make Fornite, and the leaked info about the free to play Stadium Stampede battle royale mode makes me think they're hopefully quite committed

Is ewr actually worth playing over tew?
It's a lot less involved / more casual than TEW, so outside of the price difference it kinda comes down to whether you want each game week to take 1hour or 4hours to deal with.
For example, each EWR show is twelve segments where as in TEW you book to the minute. Stats are simpler in EWR, as is roster management and negotiations etc.
I'd love it if someone ported EWR to mobile, it would be the perfect commute game.

In both TEW and EWR you set a promotion style that determines your audiences expectation of match:segment ratio (and match style itself), and then can also book matches in advance that affect tickets/viewership based on worker overness and feud hype. TEW is just more in depth.

Looks like Stadium Stampede plays completely different than the actual wrestling part of the game? Is this right? I’m seeing a lot of bad running around and scoop slams. If so, wild that this new mode doesn’t have the one thing people like about this game which is the wrestling gameplay.
Like I knew there would be some catch to going from 4 characters to 30, but I figured it would be like only 4 people are allowed in an area of the arena at a time and the winner moves on or something. Not just like, it plays like a dog poo poo indie game.
Yeah it plays totally different - you have a single strong/weak punch/kick/grapple/running grappel that's determined by your character class (high flyer / balanced / power), plus whatever weapons you pick up (you can hold 5) and your finisher.
There's a whole attribute points / skill tree thing and boosts and ... yeah it's totally different to the core gameplay.
oh poo poo, what's the Sting attire?
Facepaint. Mox and Jericho have both got a couple of new sets of ring gear, Trent? is the same as before but shaved head, haven't looked at the others. They're not there by default though - you have to manually assign them to new presets in "Modify A Wrestler". If you never read the patch notes / online you'd never know they'd been added 🤦♂️

I think Stadium Stampede would have been a nice little "hey, that's neat" feature that kept people logging in for a while if it had been there since launch, but as the only game update two months after launch it's pretty frustrating when there's so many other core game things that should have been getting addressed by now.

Picked up WWE2K23 in the steam sale. The movement feels a little slower than I'd like and there's so many different controls for things it's a little overwhelming, but Holy Moly there's so much to do in the game! Absurd value for £16.
I'm doing Universe mode and ive had to fight Rey Mysterio for 4 Raw's in a row so it seems very authentic too!

This season's paid DLC is Swerve, Claudio & Hayter, plus some moves, CAW attires, music and the beach arena. No matches / modes / etc.
The free DLC has 10 attires for your CAWS and some music. There's also a general patch but it's exclusively bugfixes with no features.

“I think we figured out how to stop the criticism: give them free stuff (but only entrance music and clothes options)”
"We should add some more arenas to the game"
"Like the new TV show and PPVs we launched since the game was released?"
"No, a beach, but at both daytime and night time"

If the season 1+2+3 content had been one $15 DLC that came out in one drop 2-3 months after launch and then they kept up that cadence (especially adding more modes the way they did with beat the elite) it wouldn't be so bad. But the constant slow expensive drip isn't going to draw anybody back to the game.
Anyway, November's DLC leaked:
