- PROMO WRESTLING WORLD 2.0 — THE BROADCAST STUDIO UPDATE - 11 September 2026
PROMO WRESTLING WORLD 2.0 — THE BROADCAST STUDIO UPDATE Version 2.0 is the biggest presentation and navigation update yet. The new Broadcast Studio presentation rebuilds the game around clearer desks, stronger visual hierarchy, faster navigation, and more useful information at a glance—while keeping the full depth of Promo Wrestling World underneath it. The original Classic presentation remains fully supported and can still be selected at any time. A COMPLETE BROADCAST STUDIO REDESIGN Added the new Broadcast Studio presentation across the game, with a consistent dark navy and steel visual identity, broadcast-inspired typography, clearer spacing, and stronger page hierarchy.

Added clearer focused workspaces, drawers, reports, a…
- Hotfixes - September 5th - 5 September 2026
World Editor Role and Stat Editing Fixes Additional roles: Checking an additional job now keeps it selected without changing the person's primary role. Worker selection: Fixed an issue where editing a wrestler's stats could jump back to a previously selected person. Stat editing: Unfinished number entries no longer carry over when switching between workers. Previously changed ratings are not automatically reset. World Editor Worker Role Fixes Multiple roles now stay assigned: Changing a person's primary role now keeps their previous job as an additional role until you choose to remove it. Missing workers return to People: Workers who remained on a promotion roster but disappeared from the World Editor's People workspace are recovered and can be edited again.
- Small update - 1 September 2026
Low-Resolution Window and Avatar Fixes Better Worker Profiles: Worker Profiles now stay compact and readable at lower resolutions, with every tab and detail kept reachable through the profile's scrollable area. Full-screen window controls: Worker Profiles can now maximize, restore, drag, and resize correctly across the full screen, including when Auto UI Scale is active. Consistent background blur: Modal backgrounds now remain blurred all the way to the right and bottom edges at lower resolutions. World Editor sizing: The World Editor now fills the complete screen at lower resolutions instead of leaving parts of the game visible around it. Correct avatar recommendations: Modern Era wrestlers now receive Modern Era recommended portraits instead of Territory Era portraits.
- Front Office, Tutorial, and Live Booth Hotfix - 31 August 2026
Front Office and Auto-Manage Faster, safer toggles: Front Office changes now update immediately and save in the background without repeatedly refreshing the entire world. Staff assignments fixed: Hired specialists are now recognized correctly, including Head Bookers, Trainers, Medical/Physio staff, Talent Relations, Scouts, Marketing Directors, Production Managers, and General Managers. Clear hiring requirements: Every Front Office card now shows the exact position needed for that job. Smarter Hire buttons: Hiring from Front Office now opens Staff Market already filtered to the required position. Medical automation repaired: Medical/Physio staff can run Medical directly and no longer require an unrelated General Manager assignment. Guided First Show Visible guide targets: Steps after opening the Segment Editor now point to controls on the correct screen. Cleaner editor handoff: The guid…
- Backstage Interviews, World Editor & Show Progression Fixes - 31 August 2026
Backstage Interviews, World Editor & Show Progression Fixes Use your Backstage Interviewers: Hired Backstage Interviewers can now be assigned directly to backstage interview promo segments. Complete interview presentation: The interviewer and their portrait now appear with who they are interviewing in the Segment Editor, booked card, segment details, Live Show presentation, and Show Results. Cleaner staff hiring markets: Every Staff Hire market now uses a responsive candidate layout, keeping ratings, traits, salary information, and hire actions readable on smaller displays.

- Women's Wrestling Era, Sponsor Broadcasts & Staff Improvements - 30 August 2026
Women's Wrestling Era, Sponsor Broadcasts & Staff Improvements New Women's Wrestling Era: Start a career in a dedicated women-only world where six promotions compete directly for the same talent, audiences, media rights, and sponsors. Six distinct promotion starts: Choose from Elevate Women's Wrestling, Valkyrie Pro Women, Sovereign Women's Wrestling, Aurora Women's Wrestling, Crown Women's Wrestling, or Liberty Women's Pro, with different roster sizes, reputations, budgets, broadcast reach, and Easy-to-Extreme difficulty. Modern Era remains the default: The new women's era is available from the era selector, while the Modern Era continues to be selected by default for a standard new game.

- Show Runtime Control, Booking Fixes, Brand Improvements & World Editor Update - 29 August 2026
Show Runtime Control, Booking Fixes, Brand Improvements & World Editor Updates Choose each show's card time: Television episodes can now use a per-show runtime from 20 to 200 minutes without rewriting the signed Media Rights contract. The compact Booking slider turns green on the contracted time, yellow when short, and red when long. Network-time consequences: Players are free to run short or long, but television episodes that miss their contracted slot can receive a visible network runtime fee. Resetting to the signed slot remains one click away. Auto Book respects your runtime: Auto Book, Quick Fill, card validation, and the runtime meter now use the selected episode time. Longer cards expand to fill the target, repeated Auto Book passes recognize a changed target, and player-authored segment lengths are preserved. Cleaner Booking workspace: The card-time control now sits compactly in…
- Update - Multiple Promotions & Pre-taped Shows - 27 August 2026
TV tapings Plan television tapings: Promotions can group 2-4 TV episodes into one taping plan covering up to two weeks. This lets you record future weekly episodes together while using one crowd and venue setup. House shows and PPVs are not eligible. Tape episodes in order: Each episode must have a completed card and is taped individually. After one episode is taped, it locks and the next episode becomes active. Injuries carry forward: Injuries and availability changes from the first taped show are applied before you tape the next one, so an injured wrestler cannot simply continue through the whole batch. Clear taping progress: The Booking screen highlights your current episode and displays its show name, date, and status. Finished episodes display as Taped and Awaiting Air until their broadcast date. Calendar information: The Calendar distinguishes planned tapings, taped episodes await…
- Update - August 23rd - 23 August 2026

- Update - Steam Deck & Controller Support - 21 August 2026
Career Projects & Steam Deck Input Update Career Projects Added a new Career Projects desk under Development, where long-term programs can permanently shape wrestlers and staff. Added Star Partnership: pair a rising wrestler with an established star for 4-6 weeks to earn "the rub" through matches, promos, corner work, and shared angles.

- Update - August 21st - 21 August 2026
TAG TEAMS, TRIOS & TITLES Added the Freebird Rule for eligible trios, allowing any two recognized members to defend their tag-team championship while keeping one shared title reign and lineage. Freebird championship credit, defenses, title history, news, AI booking, manual title changes, and former-champion effects now recognize the full trio. WORKER CONVERSATIONS & LOCKER ROOM When a wrestler says they have multiple problems, the sit-down now lists every active issue plainly instead of making the player search through unrelated canned questions. Each problem explains what caused it and the exact action that can address it, with direct links to the relevant Booking, Storylines, Titles, Contracts, or Press screen. Grievances can now resolve through the appropriate gameplay response, including kept promises, fulfilled requests, decisive revenge wins, or sustained trust and morale recovery…
- Update - August 17th - 17 August 2026
Patch Notes: Update 3:24 CST BOOKING AND SEGMENT EDITOR IMPROVEMENTS The Segment Editor now keeps a persistent desktop roster rail with clear stamina bars, fatigue details on hover, and each wrestler's current card usage. A smooth Current Card panel lets you review, edit, delete, and reorder booked segments without leaving the Segment Editor. Dragging one Current Card segment onto another now swaps their positions. Adding a segment keeps the editor open and clears the form so you can continue building the card faster. Selecting a booked segment loads it directly into the same editor, and accidental outside clicks no longer close the Card Builder or Segment Editor. Improved borders, spacing, labels, and panel contrast make wrestlers and booked segments easier to scan. TAG TEAM AND MATCH RESULTS Tag team wins now credit every wrestler on the winning side while still tracking who scored th…
- Update - August 16th - 16 August 2026
DEVELOPMENT TERRITORY OVERHAUL *Updated Notes 6pm CST Build your own wrestling school, starting in a rented gym and growing into a Training School, Performance Center, and Territory Auditorium. Every upgrade has new building artwork, construction stages, larger classes, and new room options. More wrestlers, coaches, crews, and fans appear as your school grows. Give your school a name and rename it later from The Building page. Hire a scout and trainer from your actual staff. Staff members cannot be assigned to two scouting jobs at once. Send your scout across the United States or around the world. U.S. scouting is divided into Northeast, Southeast, South, Midwest, West, and Northwest regions. Scout reports build over time instead of immediately revealing everything about a wrestler. Rival promotions can sign someone if you wait too long. Hold a yearly training camp, choose who receives…
- Small Update/Fixes - 14 August 2026
Alter Egos & Booking Update Alter Egos, Match Rules & Interface Update Alter egos can now have their own portrait or use the wrestler’s regular portrait. You can create, edit, remove, and activate alter egos directly from a wrestler’s profile. Active alter egos now update the wrestler’s name, portrait, and identity across the roster. Roster cards clearly identify when a wrestler is using an alter ego. Belt & Avatar Edit mode now lets you click the smaller identity portrait to make it the main roster photo. You can choose a wrestler’s regular identity or alter ego when booking matches and promos. Storylines can use specific alter egos for their participants. Auto Book, Booker’s Pick, and automated writers now recognize and preserve active and storyline alter egos.

Access this by going to Booking tab -- Tools --- Tournament Card Choose between tournaments completed on one show or brackets spread across multiple shows. Tournament setup includes seeding, automatic participant filling, bracket editing, and wrestler availability checks. Tournament matches use the normal match engine, including fatigue, injuries, results, storyline effects, and match-order protection. Tournament brackets remain synchronized when tournament matches or entire booking cards are changed. Championship match fixes Fixed recently crowned champions sometimes not being recognized when booking a championship match. Title changes now correctly update the championship’s current holder information for future bookin…
- Update - August 9th - 9 August 2026
Booking, Live Show, and Front Office Update Matches, Promos, and Angles Matches, Promos, and Angles are now three separate segment types throughout Booking, Watch Show, and Results. Promos clearly show who is speaking, who is being talked about, and whether full teams are involved. Added more Angle choices, including post-match attacks, mystery attacks, tag team breakups, stable expulsions, recruitment offers, training sessions, mask removals, and humiliations or pranks. Planned endings now affect Watch Show commentary, Results, consequences, and storyline movement. Story Moments are only available when a segment is connected to a storyline, so one-off segments no longer show choices such as Final Match. You can start a new storyline directly from a booked Match, Promo, or Angle. Quick Fill, Let Booker Plan, and staff booking now correctly preserve Promos and Angles. Booking cards and R…
- Update - August 6th - 6 August 2026
Update – August 6, 2026 Storylines and Writers New storyline control options: book a story yourself, approve writer pitches, or hand it to a writer completely. Writers now actually book their assigned stories every week. Storylines page redesigned. See who controls each story, its next step, paused stories, and stories ready for a payoff.

Booking Screen Drag and drop now swaps spots. Drop your main event on slot 6 and the slot 6 match becomes the new main event.
