What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“Believr Pro Wrestling is a complex sandbox designed for creative players who love storytelling, simulation, and chaos. Early Access allows us to refine its booking systems, balancing, and creative tools with real community feedback. Wrestling fans know what makes a great show, so we’re giving them a front-row seat to help shape the future of BPW.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“BPW will likely remain in Early Access for roughly 9 months as we refine gameplay systems, add additional content, and respond to community feedback. This timeframe may adjust based on development needs.”

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“The Early Access version already lets you book shows, write promos, run angles and build your own promotion. Over time, we expect BPW to evolve as we gather feedback and see what players actually use and enjoy.

Areas we’re considering expanding include, for example:
– Even smarter AI promotions and a richer global wrestling landscape
– More detailed feud / storyline / segment logic
– Extra Showrunner presentation options and commentary pacing tweaks
– Additional creative tools for titles, events, stables and media networks
– Deeper database editing and mod support
– More simulation depth for fan reactions, injuries and match psychology

These are goals, not guarantees. Scope and priorities may change based on time, resources and what the community values most.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The current version is fully playable and stable, featuring:

Complete booking and show simulation with the Match Flow system

Working Showrunner mode with live text commentary and crowd heat simulation

Functioning database editor for promotions, wrestlers, and regions

Core financial and reputation systems

Save/load and multi-database support

The foundations are solid, but balancing, presentation, and long-term depth will evolve through updates.”

Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“Yes. The price will start lower during Early Access and gradually increase as new features, modes, and polish are added. Early adopters will get the best value for supporting development early.”

How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

“Community feedback is central to BPW. Players will help shape the direction through:

Steam discussions and in-game feedback tools

Regular development updates and feature polls

Testing new systems like the Match Flow engine and Showrunner mode

Sharing custom databases, rosters, and worlds to showcase the game’s potential

Believr Pro Wrestling is being built by fans, for fans — and every booking decision counts.”

About This Game

CONTROL THE WORLD OUTSIDE THE RING AND EVERY MOMENT INSIDE IT

Believr Pro Wrestling is a wrestling booking and creation simulator built around giving you control over the entire show.

Run a real independent wrestling promotion or build your own. Manage the roster, write promos, create storylines, book events and construct every match from bell to bell.

Take full control through BPW’s creative sandbox, or enter GM Mode for a structured weekly management experience built around shows, ratings, talent and the consequences waiting in your inbox.

DON’T JUST CHOOSE THE WINNER

Choosing who wins is only the beginning.

Match Flow lets you construct the action from the opening exchange to the final fall. Set the style and pace, decide who controls each stage, protect particular wrestlers and build the moments that define the match.

• Plan the opening, middle, comeback, false finishes and finish

• Choose which wrestler controls each part of the match

• Add interference, weapons, signature moments and match-specific spots

• Build custom stipulations with their own rules and available actions

• Decide how the winner gets there, not simply whose name appears in the results

Use Match Hooks to add everything from table breaks and ladder crashes to betrayals, run-ins and desperate final escapes. When the card is complete, Showrunner presents the event through live text commentary, match narration and changing crowd reactions.

WRITE THE PROMOS. CREATE THE STORIES.

Build the wrestling around the matches.

Write promos, assign the participants and control how each confrontation develops. Use Angle Hooks to create attacks, betrayals, contract signings, challenges, alliances and other major story moments.

Connect promos and matches into longer storylines, track how the crowd responds and let what happens on one show influence what becomes possible on the next.

Your wrestlers carry memories of the alliances, humiliations and victories that shaped them. Relationships change. Crowd connection rises and falls. A storyline can end while its damage remains.

REAL PROMOTIONS. REAL WRESTLERS. YOUR BOOKING.

BPW works directly with independent wrestling promotions and wrestlers across four continents.

Take control of a participating promotion, work with its roster and championships, or bring real wrestlers into a wrestling world of your own creation.

Each participating promotion is included with permission and can link players directly to its official website or social channels, connecting the game’s wrestling world to the wrestlers and promotions operating beyond it.

CREATE IT IN MINUTES. BOOK IT FOR DECADES.

Build a new promotion without spending your first evening filling out hundreds of empty fields.

The Quick Promotion Creator can generate a complete starting promotion from a handful of choices. Name the company, choose its country and size, decide the shape of its roster and championships, then let BPW create the foundation.

Everything generated can still be edited.

• Create wrestlers with their own identities, styles, attributes and traits

• Build promotions, teams, stables, championships and recurring events

• Design match types, Match Hooks and Angle Hooks

• Create or edit complete wrestling databases

• Import and export data for sharing and large-scale editing

• Run multiple wrestling worlds without replacing your existing creations

Start with a generated promotion in minutes, then follow its wrestlers, title histories, rivalries and changing industry across decades of booking.

COMING SOON: TAKE THE HEAD OFFICE

GM Mode gives BPW a focused weekly structure for players who want the decisions of a wrestling promotion without beginning in the deepest end of the sandbox.

Build your roster, book the next show and receive its ratings. Advance through the calendar, respond to messages and deal with whatever your decisions have set in motion.

From Head Office you can:

• Book weekly shows and manage your schedule

• Track news, ratings and rival promotions

• Manage wrestlers, teams, stables and available talent

• Follow active storylines and unresolved problems

• Respond to messages, requests and consequences through your inbox

• Make decisions that carry into future weeks

GM Mode offers a guided management loop. BPW’s wider sandbox remains available for players who want deeper booking, creation and control over the wrestling world.

A WRESTLING WORLD THAT KEEPS MOVING

Your promotion does not operate in isolation.

Other companies run shows, compete for talent and pursue their own futures. Wrestlers gain momentum, lose confidence, suffer injuries and develop expectations. Different cities and audiences respond to different styles of wrestling.

Booking decisions create mechanical consequences. If a wrestler is suspended, they become unavailable. Leave someone overlooked for too long and resentment can grow. Push a wrestler the crowd refuses to accept and the numbers will expose it.

Manage contracts, finances, championships, injuries, popularity, morale and the expectations created by success. The wrestling world continues to change whether your plans survive it or not.

BUILD YOUR WRESTLING WORLD

• Detailed show booking with matches, promos and storylines

• Match Flow and Promo Flow creative systems

• Match Hooks, Angle Hooks and custom stipulations

• Real independent promotions and wrestlers

• Quick promotion, wrestler and database creation

• Structured GM Mode and a deeper creative sandbox

• Crowd acceptance, city preferences and wrestler memories

• Contracts, finances, injuries, championships and long-term histories

• AI-controlled promotions competing inside an evolving industry

• Editable and shareable wrestling databases

Run an existing promotion or create one from nothing. Build the roster, write the stories and decide what happens when the bell rings.

The winner is only one decision.
