Spike Chunsoft announced that the return of the Fire Pro series, Fire Pro Wrestling World, will launch on Steam Early Access on July 10.
Through the Early Access program, players will be able to assist with the direction of the game by providing feedback to developers. This feedback is crucial from long time fans of the series to let their voices be hear about the product that they want when it's officially released on PC and PlayStation 4.
From the game's Steam page:
The greatest grappling game returns to take on the world! Customize every aspect of the match, from your wrestler to the ring itself, in your fight for the championship belt.
Key Features

- Mix Up the Rules – Modes include Deathmatch (steel cage, barbed wire or landmines), MMA rules and no-holds barred Gruesome Fighting.
- Unlimited Customization – Create your dream wrestler from over a thousand devastating moves and even more body parts to battle for custom championship belts. Personalize the ring, mat logos and even the referee!
