Yeah, it is - it looks like somebody put up the website for the launch early: aewgames.com/ Still some links that lead to Wordpress login pages, so it's definitely early. Seems to quickly have been taken down because it's just the "Coming Soon" page and a link that just loops to that page. For those that want to know what got leaked: {Spoiler}Yukes console game, Elite GM, and an AEW Casino game.

Considering how The Elite are so ingrained into gaming, it's about time that they did something like this. Honest, non-snarky question: Is that really a thing? Like I knew Kenny Omega in particular was a gamer, but I was not aware it was a passion of the rest of them. Cody is definitely a hardcore gamer, and I don’t think the Buck’s are as big into it but they’re definitely game fans

And well, we know how ingrained the rest of the roster, Like LEva Bates, are in gaming as well. Just makes all the sense.

I mean, if that's the case, for all the slack Yukes got for many years, they were still the people that kept those Smackdown games together for years so them having a fresh start after a decade+ with WWE games? I'm down for that. Plus considering the fact they're probably not going to be pressured to put out a yearly games NOT MATTER WHAT, that can have nothing but a good effect on their product.

{Spoiler}I am curious if the Gm game is supposed to be like TEW I'd imagine you'd be able to sign wrestlers and stuff and I guess they'd be made up?

I mean maybe they could get a few big names that are free agents... but I'm not sure they are going to want to spend extra money on one of their first attempts at games.
I don't see them poking the bear with like Kirk Angel style false names either.
Also in theory they could just restrain you to the roster they have.

I don't know if he's as big into modern gaming or would conduct an interview with the producer of the Final Fantasy series (in Japanese!) like Kenny would, but he's really into gaming as a whole.

They advertised this on all their platforms for over a week, how did it not start on time?

15 minutes, still nothing
Why does AEW constantly struggle with Youtube Streaming?
