AEW Fight Forever is a 2023 professional wrestling sports video game developed by Yuke's and published by THQ Nordic. It is the debut title on home consoles and personal computers based on the American professional wrestling promotion All Elite Wrestling (AEW).
Plans of a game for the promotion were reported as early as October 2019 and officially announced in November 2020, with the game being the first wrestling game developed by Yuke's since 2018 with WWE 2K19, before the studio ended its working relationship with WWE and 2K in August 2019. The game is heavily inspired by previous console generations of wrestling games, particularly WWF No Mercy for the Nintendo 64, with an arcade-style of gameplay with exaggerated wrestler appearances and presentation, as opposed to a more realistic simulation style of the developer's most recent previous wrestling games.
The game was released on June 29, 2023, for Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Windows, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S. It received mixed reviews, being praised for its throwback style of arcade gameplay but criticized for its limited presentation, modes, and customization.
