The world of wrestling is no stranger to exciting crossovers and collaborations, and the WWE has been particularly active in integrating its superstars into the mobile gaming scene. The latest venture sees the WWE teaming up with the popular casual game, Empires & Puzzles, for an event that's set to launch on May 26th. This collaboration promises to bring the thrill of wrestling into the realm of puzzle-solving, featuring top WWE superstars like Cody Rhodes, Rhea Ripley, and even the current champion, John Cena.

As expected with any WWE crossover, the event will incorporate iconic elements of pro-wrestling. Players can look forward to three new specific passives—Striker, Technician, and Powerhouse—along with a new status effect called Grapple. These additions will enhance gameplay by allowing players to activate their chosen Superstars' signature moves, such as HHH's Pedigree, adding a unique twist to the match-three battles.

The event features 10 stages of engaging match-three battles, where players can recruit defeated guest heroes to their team. As you progress, you'll unlock those brand-new signature moves and exclusive rewards. With a generous six-week window 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, it's a strategic move to showcase WWE's superstars to a broader audience through a highly popular platform like Empires & Puzzles.
