About This Game

Book the show. Keep the promotion alive.

KAYFABE is a single-player wrestling management simulation about running a small independent promotion. Build match cards, shape rivalries and choose the winners, while finding the money and people to make the next show happen.

Every wrestler has a life beyond the ring

Your wrestlers have day jobs, ambitions, relationships and worries of their own. Hear them out in your office, negotiate appearances, keep your promises and earn their trust. Injuries and the need for rest can change the card you had planned.

From booking to payday

Find a venue, hire staff and plan around the wrestlers available and the budget you can afford. On show night, follow arrivals, matches and the final payouts. A great main event still needs a promotion that can pay its bills.

Build a history worth remembering

The full game lets you run your promotion for up to ten years, following debuts, championship wins, setbacks and retirement. Keep records of your shows, title histories and wrestler careers.

Updated demo: your first three shows

The demo covers your first three shows. The October 12 update improves roster alignment, popularity displays, booking portraits, English text and record labels. The trailer and screenshots show the updated demo. Please use the Steam discussions to tell me about bugs, confusing tutorials or screens that are hard to read.

English and Korean are supported. Japanese translation in the demo is still incomplete. KAYFABE takes place in a fictional wrestling world.
