Big Boss Posted August 13, 2020 Report Share Posted August 13, 2020 Looks fun. Spiritual successor to WWE Superstars? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VelivolusDas Posted August 13, 2020 Report Share Posted August 13, 2020 Lol! Clearly trying to replicate the (somewhat) success of the mobile game to consoles. It totally looks like Mayhem with better graphics. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you guys have any questions, feel free to leave them there. I think if they get this right, there is definitely an audience for this. Need details about roster. How many wrestlers?

Guest Posted September 21, 2020 Report Share Posted September 21, 2020 Trash as expected OpenCritic: 57 Top Critic Average 18% Critics Recommend WWE 2K BG isn’t going to provide you the depth that the traditional, more sim-related version aims to deliver. However, for what it is, which is an arcade, over-the-top, dump-your-rules, beat-em up, it hits on all the major points. The game is fun, deeper than you might expect and offers a very good bang for your 40 bucks. WWE 2K Battlegrounds is a game that seems like it exists purely to house its storefront, offering predatory microtransactions which would be overly pricy in a free-to-play game. In a paid title - even a budget one - they're offensive. The only silver lining here is that the game is rubbish anyway, so feel free to skip it without feeling like you're missing out. The concept behind WWE 2K Battlegrounds is a solid one, but it's let down time and time again by limited and repetitive combat, dopey AI, an excessively locked roster and a series of bewildering design choices that really should have been questioned at some point during production. We hope it eventually gets an improved sequel, but until then, the Switch is still lacking a proper main event-tier wrestling game. While it is reliant on grinding and lacks the sort of customisation that the simulation fans crave, WWE 2K Battlegrounds is the most entertaining WWE games in years. Strictly speaking, WWE 2K Battlegrounds is a solid game. The arcade focus produces replayability as players return to unlock ongoing content. If you enjoyed WWE All-Stars, I do not see you would not enjoy WWE 2K Battlegrounds. WWE 2K Battlegrounds is an interesting distraction that wants to appeal to everyone, but will have trouble keeping a headlock on anyone for too long. WWE 2K Battlegrounds delivers shallow yet fitfully enjoyable, bite-sized mayhem, even as it feels unmistakably slung together in a hurry.

harjas Posted September 21, 2020 Report Share Posted September 21, 2020 Good, they should try something good, improve massively on WWE games or go down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
