Polygon | The weirdest wrestling game is also the most realistic @polygon | Uploaded 10 months ago | Updated 11 hours ago
Wrestling Empire is a one-man project that reflect the weird world of wrestling better than any AAA wrestling sim. Wrestlers are an itinerant warrior class who struggle with access to health care, bruising schedules, and promotions that can treat talent as disposable. This janky game reveals the pants-peeing, grim underbelly of wrestling, and Polygon's Patrick Gill is here to take you on a tour of this strange world.
