Happy Wrestlemania week to those who observe it! It’s WWE’s biggest weekend of the year, but some people may not realize that it’s also a major event for the industry as a whole. The city of Wrestlemania also hosts a variety of programs ranging from smaller wrestling promotions, multiple fan conventions, live podcasts, stage shows and other events aimed at capitalizing on the fan base. Huge tomb in the area. It’s a good reminder – or disclosure to some – that there’s so much more to it than Vince McMahon’s massive multibillion-dollar fortune.
The same is true of video games, as wrestling games often go unnoticed without WWE’s branding. Hopefully this list will remedy that by bringing more awareness to other upcoming titles that aim to recreate or reimagine sports entertainment in promising ways. While there’s a lot more out there than you’ll see here, these are the titles that caught my attention the most.
