AEW Fight Forever Broken Matt Hardy can be a difficult fighter to track down, as the process of unlocking him is somewhat confusing. While the ‘delete, delete, delete’ manisinAEW Fight Forever, their inclusion comes as DLC and they aren’t immediately selectable from the character screen. That’s because once you have access, you then need to assign the long red-coated look as a second skin so you can choose it – we said it was confusing! To solve all of this, I’ve got the full details of what to do in this AEW Fight Forever Broken Matt Hardy guide.

Unlocking AEW Fight Forever Broken Matt Hardy

Unlocking AEW Fight Forever Broken Matt Hardy

Play through Road To Elite and it’s natural to think that you’ll unlock Matt Hardy at some point: there’s even a Snapshot opportunity with the Team Extreme favorite during the Breaking Point branch of Road To Revolution. Unlike Brodie Lee and Paul Wight, however, there’s no way to unlock him through gameplay.

Instead there are two methods of grabbing Broken Matt Hardy. The first is to be Marty McFly and have a DeLorean at hand: Hardy was the Fight Forever pre-order bonus, so you could go back in time and buy him that way. Unlikely though, eh?

The only realistic option is to purchase the AEW Fight Forever Matt Hardy pack from the in-game store. This costs £3.99/$4.99 and includes both normal Matt, and his Broken Matt Hardy alter-ego. Jeff Hardy makes the on-disc roster, so you can reunite him with big bro to form the legendary Hardy Boyz.

Once you’ve purchased the Matt Hardy pack, there’s one extra step you need to take to use his Broken version, and that’s to create a new ‘Preset’ – the AEW equivalent ofWWE 2K23 Alternate Attires:

To use Broken Matt, choose normal Matt Hardy on the character select screen, then Options, and switch the Preset to Preset 1. Done!

There are eight other additional characters available as DLC: The Revival, The Acclaimed, Keith Lee, The Bunny, Danhausen, and Hook. For more details, zoom over to ourAEW Fight Forever DLCguide.

No. While all other DLC characters and mini-games are included, the Season Pass doesn’t give you the two versions of Matt Hardy. You have to fork out the extra £3.99/$4.99 if you want to play as him.
