The world of wrestling is no stranger to exciting crossovers and collaborations, and the WWE has been pushing the boundaries even further in recent years. It's no surprise, then, that their next venture is with the immensely popular mobile game, Empires & Puzzles. Starting May 26th, this thrilling new event will merge the addictive puzzle gameplay of Empires & Puzzles with the electrifying world of WWE, featuring top superstars like Cody Rhodes, Rhea Ripley, and the current champion, John Cena.
This collaboration brings more than just the faces of wrestling into the game; it introduces iconic elements of pro-wrestling with three new specific passives: Striker, Technician, and Powerhouse. Additionally, a new status effect called Grapple will enhance gameplay, allowing players to activate the signature moves of their favorite superstars, such as HHH's Pedigree.
The event features 10 stages of match-three battles, where players can recruit defeated guest heroes to their team, unlock signature moves, and earn exclusive rewards. With six weeks to complete the event, there's ample time to master the new wrestling-themed mechanics and terminology.
While this crossover might not appeal to everyone, leveraging the popularity of Empires & Puzzles is a smart move to showcase WWE superstars to a broader audience.
