    WWE 2K BATTLEGROUNDS is a game that truly feels nostalgic and a blast from the past. It's fun wacky gameplay will often remind you of games similar to Street Fighter or Tekken in which dominated the Arcade Fighting genres.

It's fun wacky gameplay will often remind you of games similar to Street Fighter or Tekken in which dominated the Arcade Fighting genres. WWE 2k Battlegrounds is simply put one of those games that once you start to play it, you cannot put this game down. WWE 2K BATTLEGROUNDS features all of your usual match types that you will often find in WWE Pro Wrestling today, such as, Steel Cage, Royal Rumbles, Fatal Four Ways, Tag Team matches and the all new mode dubbed "Battlegrounds Challenges". Couch Co-Op allows you to go head to head, toe to toe with your friends either online or locally, to let all players get to join in the frenetic fun. The interactive stage environments will leave you feeling a small resemblance to Mortal Kombat in which those object environments can be used to gain the upper hand on your opponents. Finally, the new Campaign in this game allows you to take the journey to WWE Superstardom as this ultimate mode is led by WWE's best ceative talent consultant's of all time Paul Heyman. As the former WWE Legendary JR, JIm Ross would say, "This is an absolute slobber knocker, for the ages". This is a game you most definitely not want to miss out on!. Expand

    Good arcadey wrestling fun and a throwback to simpler times for an old gamer like me! I bought this not long after release and have played through roughly half the campaign and most of the online modes including tournament.

I bought this not long after release and have played through roughly half the campaign and most of the online modes including tournament. There’s a lot of content here to keep me going and it’ll be a game to crack out with the lads after a few beers. There are micro transactions but if you’re patient enough to just play the game you will earn enough battle bucks to unlock everything you want. I would recommend playing the campaign to get the most out of learning the various playing styles for each style of wrestler.

    The game itself has a pick up play aspect that I enjoy compared to more modern wrestling games which might satisfy the hardcore fan but in fact are quite fiddly. The game mechanics allow you to learn quite quickly with timing being better than just button mashing.

    So you have to fight to build up to use other moves It’s an interesting wrestling mechanic but the overall arcade look is amazing. Minor glitches but overall this game is pretty fun. Only thing I don’t like is the system where you can pay for coins. At least give us more coin for our buck

Yes you need to play the game to unlock stuff you don’t just get everything handed to you. It’s called progression it’s what gets people coming back to play it. I think the move sets are different enough with a couple exclusive moves for each superstar for each character to feel a bit different. For me this is a very fun game and I highly recommend it if you’re looking for a chill game to just have fun with Expand

    Wacky character models and environments can only distract you from the repetitive action for so long. Be prepared to submit. [Issue#181, p.97]

    WWE 2K Battlegrounds is a fun arcade wrestling game, far different than the sim we know and love (or hate). Its got tons of different modes, arenas and wrestlers to choose from, each with his own special abilities and signature moves. Some moves are missing, its got a lot of bugs and the micro-transaction ruin your progression, but it doesn't change the fact that this game is fun, and it doesn't need to be anything else.

    WWE 2K Battlegrounds is a welcome spin-off for the franchise, giving it the extravagant, over-the-top, enjoyable gameplay that captures and magnifies the WWE’s best aspects.
