"AEW Fight Forever" has been making headlines this month because of its rumored launch date. 

While fans are busy searching for sources that tell more about it, a key figure behind this video game will now be leaving soon.

The latest report reveals that Bryan Williams is now preparing for this reunion with the "WWE 2K" franchise en route to the upcoming "WWE 2K23" installment.

According to What Culture, Bryan Williams is now set to exit Yuke so he could return to 2K soon. The staffer will reportedly be a part of the team that will develop "WWE 2K23."

His announced departure from the team will mean that he will not be a part anymore of "AEW Fight Forever."

Per Sports Gamer Online's Mike Straw, William's contribution to the team could spell a big impact on the "AEW" lineup. 

Back in November 2020, he hinted in his tweet that he would part ways with Yuke someday. Now, it indeed happened, and he's now seeking a new ground for game development.

As such, Williams said that Trent, a wrestler from AEW was the person who had helped him keep in touch with AEW. 

Regarding WWE, Williams underwent an interview three times, and this was all about the producer role. Unfortunately, the management had ghosted him, and it opened an opportunity for him to enter AEW.

During his tenure at AEW, Yuke told him more about the AEW engine. The company said that it would be formed from the very beginning. Particularly, the in-game feature would be the bloodstains on the mat at that time.

Williams Eyes 'WWE 2K23' Return

In another story from Real Sport 101, Bryan is now prepared to leave AEW so he could be a part of the WWE 2K game franchise once again. Before his return to 2L, he was a key person in creating the "SmackDown vs Raw" video game.

As of writing, we still do not know the exact role that's waiting for Williams at 2K. Most notably, his work for the Creation Suite and Communication Creations will be the best that fans can remember.

Moreover, Williams was reportedly a part of the game design which has paved the way for the GM Mode in "WWE 2K." This feature is considered to be a nostalgic mode for fans who grew up with the wrestling title throughout the years.

For now, "WWE 2K23" is still in development, and 2K has yet to release updates regarding this game. 

Meanwhile, Square Enix might be potentially preparing for a new "Final Fantasy" title, according to Tech Times. In connection with this report, some rumors suggest that the game developer will soon release a trailer for this "major franchise."
