Wrestling GM 2026 - Beta 1.1.1 Release Notes

Beta 1.1.1 is now live

Localization upgrades, smarter booking feedback, and quality-of-life improvements that matter in every save

Beta 1.1.1 is now rolling out for Wrestling GM 2026. This release focuses on clarity, feedback, and better long-term save flow, with updates that improve how you book shows, evaluate results, and manage your federation week to week.

As always, Wrestling GM 2026 stays true to its core promise: a player-first wrestling management sim with no forced ads and no pay-to-win mechanics.

What Beta 1.1.1 focuses on

This update is built around a few practical priorities:

• Expand language support and improve translations quality
• Give players stronger booking guidance before and after shows
• Balance TV network goals more fairly by difficulty
• Increase championship value through gameplay impact
• Reduce friction in roster navigation and customization flows

Localization and Polish support

Localization is one of the biggest foundations for long-term growth, and Beta 1.1.1 includes a major upgrade to support that.

• Refactored the content display system to fully support multi-language setups
• Polish is now fully available in-game
• Polish translation is currently being tested to ensure it feels natural and accurate
• More languages are planned based on demand
• Fixed additional translation issues, including messages, network goals, Outstanding Promises, and other remaining English text

For players, this means a clearer and more natural experience throughout the game, and a stronger base for future language support.

Booking guidance and feedback improvements

Beta 1.1.1 adds more context while you are building cards and after results come in, so your decisions can be more intentional.

• Added predictive feedback during match and promo creation
• Match and promo hints now help players understand how well segments are likely to perform
• Added live show booking hints to help players optimise their cards before running shows
• Added detailed post-match feedback so players can better understand how their show performed and where it succeeded

These changes are designed to make booking feel less like guesswork and more like informed management.

Difficulty-based TV network balancing

TV deal progression now adjusts more fairly by difficulty level.

• Added difficulty-based TV network goals and payouts
• Rookie difficulty now gives players an easier time meeting network objectives

This should improve early progression for newer players while preserving the challenge curve at higher difficulties.

Championship Prestige Bonus

Championships should feel meaningful beyond visuals, and this update adds a direct gameplay incentive for titleholders.

• Added a Championship Prestige Bonus
• Championship holders now receive a temporary popularity bonus equal to 10% of the championship prestige
• Example: a wrestler with 50 popularity holding a title with 80 prestige receives +8 temporary popularity
• This is intended to make championships feel more valuable and give title wins higher stakes

Filters and navigation

Roster management is now more convenient when moving across screens.

• Selected filters on All Wrestlers and Free Agents pages are now retained when the player navigates away
• Players can still reset filters manually using the reset button above the filters

This saves time and keeps your scouting and booking workflow consistent.

Custom images

One of the most requested personalization features is now fully in place.

• Added the ability to upload a custom GM avatar image
• Added the ability to upload a custom federation logo
• This is now fully working and tested

Roster additions

The roster has also been expanded in this release.

• Added 15 more enhancement talent wrestlers
• Added the first paid "Create Yourself as a Wrestler" superstar to the roster: Jose Arcadio Morales

Thank you to the supporter who helped make this possible and directly supported continued development of the project.

Help Center updates

• Updated the Help Center with additional questions about matches and rivalries

Thank you for your feedback and support

Every release is shaped by player feedback, and Beta 1.1.1 is no different. Thank you for testing, reporting issues, and sharing ideas that help improve Wrestling GM 2026 week after week.
