Earlier this week, NJPW released a mobile game for IOS and Android devices. It is the promotion’s first English-language mobile game.
The game is free to download and features NJPW stars such as Kazuchika Okada, Kenny Omega, and Hiroshi Tanahashi.

Can you defend the IWGP Heavyweight Championship 13 straight times?

NJPW King of Sport
A unique feature of the game is that players are awarded points for not just winning matches but also making them exciting. Players are awarded points for making comebacks, kicking out of near-falls, and other crowd-pleasing moves.
“Players can choose their favorite NJPW stars with their signature moves to compete for the championship!” A press release for the game reads. “Players can also create their own custom character, select special moves, and train them to become a champion. Online Battle mode allows you to play against others in real-time. Featuring both singles and tag team matches, King of Sports is full of excitement and real action that only New Japan Pro-Wrestling can deliver.”
Not only are all the top NJPW stars included in the game but there is an advanced character creator mode as well. As of this writing, I’ve currently created myself as a young lion in the junior heavyweight division and am learning new moves in the New Japan Dojo.
The loading screens also feature real pictures and descriptions of famous NJPW moments.
