Thanks to his prominence and relevance in the pro wrestling industry, Kurt remains an indispensable part of the gaming industry associated with sports entertainment.

Angle was removed from WWE gaming when he went to work with Impact in 2006. There, he was featured in TNA Impact!, TNA Wrestling, and TNA Wrestling Impact! games.

In 2017 he left Impact and came back to WWE to be inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame. Subsequently, he became the General Manager of RAW.

After an eleven-year absence, Angle made his return to WWE video games as a playable character in WWE 2K18 (downloadable content), before subsequently appearing in WWE 2K19 and WWE 2K20.
