Game Groups > WWE / WWF wrestling games

Games licensed by World Wrestling Entertainment (formerly the World Wrestling Federation), the world's largest professional wrestling promotion.

The games were initially released by Acclaim from 1988 to 1999 and then by THQ from 1999 to its bankruptcy in 2013. In September 2008 THQ and JAKKS Pacific won a case at the Connecticut Superior Court against the WWE that claimed that the videogame licensing deal between the companies was void, based upon accusations that JAKKS Pacific bribed WWE's licensing agent and another employee in pursuit of the deal.

Currently the WWE license is held by Take-Two Interactive through 2K Sports.
