AEW: Fight Forever just got a major patch across all platforms, and the patch has a number of updates, bug fixes, and adjustments. That said, the biggest news is that patch 1.07 is setting the foundation for the recently teased season 2, which looks to bring a new wave of wrestlers and more to the hit wrestling game. There’s no word on what season 2 will contain, but going by recent DLC releases, we are likely looking at more wrestlers, new costumes and gear, new arenas, and possibly a new game mode like the previously released Stadium Stampede. In the meantime, fans can improve their experience by downloading the new patch, and you can find the complete rundown of what’s included in the update below.
