Patch 4 - What's to Come for RetroMania Wrestling's DLC

10/21/2025

Patch 4 for RetroMania Wrestling

All, we are in the final testing of Patch 4. For those Steam players who want to test out the beta (you must already own the game and the DLC) the password is "patch4beta2025."

Assuming we get our testing done the rest of today and through the night (we have some people in different time zones who will be testing tonight), we hope to submit for certification tomorrow. Based on previous experience, it will take 3-6 business days to get approval and get it in your hands.

We're already working on Patch 5 as we already have a list of items we want/need to address.

Again, thanks to anyone who has submitted a bug. The initial response to the DLC has been amazing, and everyone has really helped to make the game even better.

Patch 4 Release Notes (Preview):

General Bug Fixes

Crowd sound control does not apply to the lose screen
Fix win in every arena achievement so it only counts the original ones before the DLC
Character Select Screen transition bug
Other menu issue with some transitions

Gameplay Updates / Fixes

Levitating bug on some wrestlers when a specific sequence happens
AI Tag partner will come into the ring to break up a pin but does not always do something.
AI wrestler follows opponent onto the apron when opponent tags. He re-enters the ring straight away

Animation Adjustments / Fixes

Smash's arm lock is glitchy (strong + right finisher)
Magnum's running cross body pin has an animation issue
Spinning Toehold is also missing a sprite and general animation issue with this move
Sunset flip sprite issue.
Add impact to Mr. Hughes fist drop. Right now the opponent on the ground does not move.
Wrestlers are doing the wobble walk in certain arenas when exiting from a Rumble - Ballroom - Fandom
Macho Man's "knee to back" is glitchy when performed near the ropes (left side of ring) (Was not fixed completely in last patch)
Double Clubs to Back - can tagged wrestler walk a little slower to position? he moves pretty quickly
Gorilla Press from tie up (strong+up) - victim is out of position, needs to be raised enough so RW arm stub is covered
Magnum One Hand Pin 4th sprite needed wrist band re positioned

Tournament Mode

FATAL ERROR in promoter mode when final match is a dq - singles and tag
Kings Cup when winning a match it gets counted as a loss in some situations
Tag Team Classic tournament bug - Wrong team showed winning the match
Tournament Singles - characters don't grey out if both wrestlers are disqualified on this part of the bracket
Tournament Bug: Wrestlers get swapped in brackets in 2nd rounds
In Tournament mode - in CPU vs CPU matches, if you pause the game at the start of the match, un-pause and then skip the match - the match will end without the Wrestler's ending theme.
Fatal Error in Promoter mode when there is a Double Count Out

House Show Mode

Chose Ax in rumble and when it started not in the ring yet and when pressed a button it exited the match and went to the loss screen

Retro Rumble

Fatal error - Rumble mode when setting up an all AI match and not selecting all 8 participants

New Feature

Add option to Disable camera controls on right stick and LT and RT. NOW WORKS
Add option to Disable screen shake
