The highly anticipated sequel to WWF’s acclaimed arcade game Wrestlefest will be released in early 2021.
Retrosoft LLC announced, RetroMania Wrestling will be released on February 26, 2021. The game will be available for Nintento Switch, Steam, Xbox, and Playstation consoles.
The game is the official sequel to WWF’s Wrestlefest game, but is not affiliated with WWE. Retrosoft LLC obtained the license for the Arc System Works, who owns the intellectual property rights for the game, after purchasing Technos Japan in 2015.
An official launch trailer was released this weekend, which shows in-game action, and several match and arena types.
