- Update Notes 2 March 2026 - Plugins, Training Schools and so much more! - 2 March 2026
Hope everyone has been well! The game has seen a real growth over the past year both in terms of player count and features. With this update, the game will essentially have every feature I wanted to include in the game to get it out of Early Access. What does that mean for the game? Well, from here I hope to add quality of life features, flesh out and improve existing mechanics, get a default database up and running nicely, and generally try to polish up the game for full release. I anticipate this will take quite some time. The biggest feature to come in this release is probably plugins, which allow user-created new features and alterations to the game. In the Discord (link on the opening game screen if you haven't joined already) a ton of users have already been using them to create some insane add-ons for the game! You can check them out in the Workshop already, and I imagine we're j…
- Update Notes 9 Oct - Preshow & Postshow, AI Assistant, & more - 9 October 2025
The theme for this release was mostly tackling a lot of the frequently requested features the game has. Many of these ideas have came from the awesome folks in the game's Discord. Added ability to book preshow and postshow segments - additional segments up to one hour combined can be added before and after the main show, which do not contribute to the main show's ratingAdded (completely optional) Gemini AI integration in the form of an AI assistant, which knows your roster, most recent shows and storylines, and can help pitch booking ideas. Added quick filter to Booking Screen to allow you to filter workers by their involvement in a storylineAdded option to remove workers from a storylineAdded brand exclusivity option to My Titles screenAdded ability to add a description to storylines, which can help the AI make suggestions for that storylineAdded option to "Make Special Episode" - allo…
- Update Notes 13 Aug 2025 - Talk to Workers, and more! - 13 August 2025
Added ability to talk to workers - this can mean convincing them to try to befriend others, gain or lose weight, promise you they will lose to someone, go on steroids, and more! Updated Venue costs for larger venues Added options to change the Worker Screen layout Added option in matches to tell workers to take it easy - significantly reducing fatigue, condition loss and injury risk, at the cost of match quality Added Win Loss Record across all promotions for entire career in Match History section Added option in settings to change Worker screen layout Fixed it so that the finish doesnt reset every time a worker is added to the match Workers will now announce their retirement in advance Added secondary stat option to Edit Workers page, allowing you to append the stat of your choice to the left worker list Made it harder to get 100% scores Small UI updates Fixed bug where some promises w…
- Update Notes 9 June 2025 - Random Event Generator! - 9 June 2025
The major feature added to the game here is the Random Event Generator, which basically allows you to create custom random events for your game world which can impact workers and the game world as a whole. In the future, this will be fleshed out even further, allowing for other random events and effects to happen. I want to shout out a few great mod makers in the workshop who have been using the public beta to create a whole heap of random events, which are all easily imported into existing saves and game worlds via the in-game editor: Random Events Pack: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3484902651 Anything Can Happen: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3485483384 Aceverse Random Events Pack: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3485742300 Having tried these out in some mods, they really add a ton of life to the game world. Oth…

Wrestler's styles now have positives and negatives Promotions now will try to hire styles which suit their promotion style better Made smallest touring contract 6 months rather than 3 Various bug fixes that I forgot to make note of as I went (Sorry!)
- Update Notes 27 Jan 2025 - 27 January 2025
Added Brands to Quick Filter on My Workers screen Added ability to set the push of someone when they are called up from development Altered the match score calculations, to be a little more difficult Altered how Match of the Year is calculated, so it takes into account match quality more than just overall score (only works from this update onwards) Added promotion name under each title in the Edit Titles screen, for easier searching Game now creates a backup save file at the end of every in-game month (max 12) Added option to disable backup creation in Settings AI now picks 2 people to push and 1 to assign as the figurehead of the company, and will try to increase and/or maintain their popularity as much as possible Titles will no longer be vacated if the champions are in a friendly promotion to the title AI now uses external folks when they are the company's current champion Fixed You'…
- Update Notes Nov 27 2024 - 27 November 2024
This continues the work to try to paint a more accurate Japanese wrestling world, but there's also some stuff in here that should be usable for promotions of all kinds. Added option in Events for a new event type - Tours You can now set preferred Continents/Countries/Regions/Venues for an event (e.g. you can now tell the game Crown Jewel should run in Saudi Arabia, or plan out every location in an upcoming tour) News now posts title changes as individual news stories, to try to paint a better, more alive world Added support for Highlight Show Network Deals, where the network just shows highlight footage from the company Added Prev/Next buttons to toggle between months when selecting dates for Tours and Specific Date events Added ability for events with specific dates to repeat annually AI Events will occur in different regions within a user's home country once they reach Cult level, rat…
- Update Notes 18 Sept - Tournaments! - 18 September 2024
This is part one of a much larger set of enhancements designed to make the Japanese wrestling scene much better. Next up will be adding tours and improving the booking AI. Enjoy, and as always, report any bugs in the Discord or Steam Discussions. Added Round Robin tournaments Added the ability to tie a match to a tournament, and automatically progress the tournament Added separate indicators for whether a worker is booked in an angle, a match, or both Modified how the left list of workers looks on Booking Screen Fixed bug where skin background image would remain when skin is changed Fixed bug where ages would look incorrect when going to New Game Fixed bug where workers would pick a less favorable contract Altered how budget cuts are determined
- Update Notes 12 Aug 2024 - Contract Rewrite! - 12 August 2024
A long awaited, long requested addition today - The game now has added a much deeper contract system! I recommend going to Edit Database > Helpful Scripts > Auto Set All Contracts if you're seeing promotions suddenly making a lot more money, as this new setup does change the financial balance a fair bit. Contracts are no longer instantaneous for Written contracts, instead a worker will consider and await other offers first, before settling a contract Workers can now ask for both a monthly wage and a wage per appearance PPA deals are now 'Informal Agreements', to reflect the indy scene more Workers can now ask for a share of the attendance gate, a share of the PPV buys, a share of their merch sales, and limited appearances per year Promotions can allow a worker to take Indy bookings, where they can work for local or regional promotions while still under a written contract Added Worker fi…
- Update Notes - 10 June 2024 - 10 June 2024
Added Momentum to the game. Momentum is impacted by angles, storylines and wins/losses, and has an effect on match ratings as well as how much popularity a person can gain. Changed the look and feel of the game's navigation pretty significantly - now the game uses a left navigation rather than a top pulldown, allowing you to see everything and click around with less clicks and more visibility into your options. Storylines ending now effect momentum and morale (positively or negatively), and effect's each worker's popularity differently. Added momentum as an effect on crowd reaction in angles and matches. Added "Sandbox Mode" game option on New Game screen - a mode where a user can hire anyone regardless of contract, and not have to worry about money, morale, show scores, injuries etc. A mode essentially for fantasy bookers/people using the game as an organisational device.
- Update Notes - 5 May 2024 - In depth Finish selection! - 5 May 2024
Updated booking screen options so that you can now select specific finishes Added default finishes for many match types to save modmakers some time Added properties for each finish that determine whether the crowd will like it, whether the loser will like it, whether it will hurt match quality, and whether it can cause a title change Organised match modifiers on match edit page in alpha order Added search to Match Gimmicks on booking screen Added search to gimmicks on Change Character screen Added option to change brands from the My Workers screen Added Celebration angle beat Set promotion tag name to match tag team default name when adding new promotion tag teams Added unassign all from brands button on brands page Small style updates Fixed video backgrounds when you have a background.mp4 file in your Game Folder Adjusted viewership for PPVs to match reality better Fixed bug where tag…

Added larger image on hover on Edit Workers page Added image cache clearing on edit worker page Added match gimmick importer Added option to delete before i…
- Update Notes 8 Feb - Money updates, Production upddates, Bankruptcy! - 8 February 2024
It's highly recommended that you run the Auto-Set Network Deals and Auto Set All Worker Contracts. These can be found in Edit Database > Helpful Scripts. Back again with our second release of the year! Added the ability for a company to go bankrupt, or be bought out by the user if their company is in a dire financial state. Rebalanced network deals, production costs, and worker contracts Promotions will cut their production levels and release workers in order to cut costs when finances are looking bad Added two new Production options - Marketing and Back Office. Both come with bonuses to attendance and viewership, and are necessary to move up in levels (Regional to Cult, Cult to National etc) Updated Production rules, so that instead of applying a multiplier to your segment score, they cap your final show score. Added a financial chart on the All Promotions page, so you can see how each…
- Update Notes Jan 15 2024 - 15 January 2024
Happy new year! We have a few fun new changes to the game today. Added Angle Templates- These are templates which can be used on the booking screen to create complex angles with titles and descriptions very easily. They are fully moddable, importable and editable. For the sake of getting the update out ASAP there is only a few default ones in there for now, but the hope is that the default list grows as time goes on! Updates various styles across the app Added active storylines list to booking screen, for easy reference Added Romantic story beat Added Staredown story beat Added contract signing story beat Contract offers in the news will now say if the offer is exclusive or not Added fix to prevent news items from the future appearing too early Added fix to saving when new databases are created Separated Historical and current accolades Accolades are hidden if a worker has none Added su…
- Update Notes Nov 19th - Improved Game Editing Experience! - 19 November 2023
Merged all promotion-specific screens (except Titles - that will probably come soon) into the Promotions screen, so you can edit everything in a single location! I will probably make a few more tweaks to the editor as time goes by, to try to make it as simple to use as possible.

This is so that workers not signed to contracts can get some bookings in-game Updated style for tabs New game now shows Workshop and Local Files together Fixed bug where managers could be in Wrestler of the Year Fixed new worker generation so they had a base country and region Added ability to select titles from outside your promotion when a worker with that title is in your match Bug Fixes for movesets

Added ability to set worker's entrance music by linking to a Youtube video (completely optional, modmakers!) Added ability to play worker's entrance songs during booking results screen by clicking the play button Removed show viewerships from the news section on Main Office screen Added Ratings roundup section on Main Office screen, to allow you to see and sort all ratings for each show on each network in the last 7 days Added ability to select an Agent for matches - these can help less talented workers put together better and/or longer matches, and can help with developing skills faster in matches Added ability for referees and announcers to develop skills through use Added an Is a Celebrity? true/false option for workers (doesn't do anything for now, but will eventually help with some AI/contract rules) Reduced title match chance for normal importance shows Added random event for a wo…
