Scopely and WWE have announced a new partnership between the two companies, and coming out of that partnership is a new wrestling themed game called WWE Champions. You may be thinking, “Well of course it is a wrestling themed game, WWE is involved right?”. Well you’re right, except that this isn’t your standard wrestling title.
Instead of just picking your favorite wrestler and heading out into the ring, players will be presented with a Puzzle-RPG style of a setup. Players will have the ability to collect and play as one of over 100 different Superstars and Legends from the wrestling world. While your character is wrestling his opponent, you’ll be controlling the moves and the power of each one through match-3 puzzle gameplay.
WWE Champions is already out in test markets according to Scopely, which basically means that it is currently being beta tested in select regions. There’s no official worldwide release date for WWE Champions outside of ‘later this year’ for Android and iOS. As for pricing, this will be free to download and play with optional IAPs being available. We will post an update once we have more details. Until then you can check out the game’s first trailer below.
