- As noted, NJPW had a "video game announcement" at yesterday's NJPW Fan Festa and that announcement was Pro Wrestling Fire would be coming to the PlayStation 4 and NJPW would be partnering up with the game to have their wrestlers officially in it. Kevin Kelly was at the event and announced the news. A few wrestlers, including KUSHIDA and Togi Makabe, did a quick tournament to show off their characters in the game. The PS4 version is expected to drop in the Summer, before the next NJPW G1 Climax.
