    Calling this game broken is an insult to the word itself because you’re suppose to fix broken things and they are not bothering with fixing this trainwreck.

    few months after its release, the game is still buggy. movement animations are still worse than the previous titles. and the story is half okay. the women's storyline is good. the male's storyline is an outright joke. almost all the quest of the male character is either to lose the match, take glory or a joke. if this is a stance about women empowerment its good. if its stance is aboutfew months after its release, the game is still buggy. movement animations are still worse than the previous titles. and the story is half okay. the women's storyline is good. the male's storyline is an outright joke. almost all the quest of the male character is either to lose the match, take glory or a joke. if this is a stance about women empowerment its good. if its stance is about equality, I think they may need to consult the meaning of the word or what it symbolizes. what I'm going with this is if they made the quest either good or at least equal cringe to both characters, it would be better... not this cringe-fest they called storyline...

    Graphics looks like ps360 game not ps4,
    Menus and overall presentationscreens look like ps1 -early ps2 era, hit detection broken, run direction is broken too, remapped control worse than it was before ( triangle to reverse, have to press two buttons to execute finisher, have to press and hold 2 buttons to make submission etc), menus and arenas smaller, instant recovery options make wrestle less realistic, wrestle speed is too fast for a wrestling game it’s not mortal kombat or blazblue 2k!, animation worse everything looks cartoonish, bugs, lags.
    You wrestle hard , executing finishers your opponent stamina is getting low but suddenly he jumps out like he just got into the fight( stamina system is messed up), animations frames are missing sometimes, also some moves feels too automatic you have less control over the character than in w2k18 game.
    Female wrestlers are lookIng less appeal, roster worse than 18’game( but it depends on taste)
    Pros You can play as female in career mode, also mVSf matches added, sweat and lightning looks better and Colors more warmer, reverse Move window sorta fixed and now it’s easy to play stylish than before at the same time it became harder to play against AI,
    I got deluxe Version for $7.99 So there is not much to complain about...
    Let’s wait for wwe 2k21 or better look forward to new Yuke’s wrestling game.

    Even though I played 1 match, I was turned down from this game almost immediately, graphics wise they look like ps2 characters, this is on PS4, the controls changed for honestly no reason, and gameplay wise it just doesn’t feel that great,

    Even with the patch, it’s still a broken glitchy mess of a game, cancelling wwe2K21 feels like a step in the right direction though, we don’t want

    In my opinion. I have played WWE games since 2006 and I have never experienced a wwe game with so many bugs and so many problems. 2K should lose their wwe license because of the complete mess they have made with this game. EA should have a chance Considering the amazing job they have done with Jedi fallen order and the redemption of Star Wars battlefront 2

    I've been playing Smackdown vs Raw and their 2k games for years and every year it sucked or didnt have enough. The people would add fan faverite features then take them off in the next years game. Then their game play sucks 2015 & 14 had horrible game play and this yeard 2k20 game play isnt any better. Its like these games are demonic every year on controling ypur corrector. Its like theI've been playing Smackdown vs Raw and their 2k games for years and every year it sucked or didnt have enough. The people would add fan faverite features then take them off in the next years game. Then their game play sucks 2015 & 14 had horrible game play and this yeard 2k20 game play isnt any better. Its like these games are demonic every year on controling ypur corrector. Its like the game picks up on how you play then disable features so that you dont use them to win the match. Now the game allows you to turn off limited reversals, but in 2014 even though that was done reversals where still limited and that seems to be the problem with this years game, the game tends to Botch the matches more then put on a 5 start match the computers are always trying to find away to end the match early or botch it. The computers seems to have more reversal use then the player does. Even on normal mode its seems to be no different then legend. When super stars are set to legend they dont put on a 5 star match they do annoying things to end the match early. A lot of the game features dont work like issues they had in the old game where you have the option to turn off fatigue it doesnt really turn off fatigue nor does ending limited reversals because aparenttly the game has the right to ignore you reversal and botch the match. In history of playing the wwe games from 2009 through present the game can since that you are about to end the match and fimd a way to botch it. The game tends to disable buttons during game play. The Referee dont stay down long enough even though you can set it to stay down longer. Disabiling Stamina cost dont work. You guys actauly have a squash match rate which still dont work because they still will do things to end the match early.

    There are to many restrictions in wwe universe you are not allowed to create any dream tag team you want, you are limted when it comes to championship settings and creations, in creations editing charators cloths or aperance is limited compared to the old wwe games. You are limited in creating arenas, the game doesnt have all off the WWE arenas of the past even though its 2020. Their is no historical matches like the buried alive match and wwe had many different historical special matches. The game doesnt have all of the wwe charators or outfits it had in the past limited on outfits. WWE should be a game like call of duty that has massive GB take over because of the features it accumulator overtime, but instead its a 64GB game that is always barley no different then the last. I had to pay $14 for the Fiend, i have been buying wwe games since the 90s why dont it have all the charators,moves,entrances,music thems and arenas? These game consols are very exspensive and hard to place for a lot of people around the world so your game should not be annoying to the point where it gives them the urge of destroying their console because of Foul play. Your game should be blame free except it gets caught with many issues with glitches over the years compared to other popular games. You should be able to copy data from the previous year on to the next year, but that didnt happen. SmackDown Shut your Mouth and Here comes the Pain seems to get great reviews when compared to todays WWE games. Their Backstage arenas are terrible compared to the backstage fights in SmackDown Shut your mouth.

    The game should be M rated or produce a M rated WWE for adults although we understand WWE has fans that are children, but you have a lot of grown adults who are fans who be the main ones purchesing these games. We live in a time where the most violent video games have been produce like GTA and Resident Evil.. Games are fatancy play and always has been. Every year WWE has falsely advertising about the way you play their video games as if you are in complete control of the wwe universe, but your not.

    After an impressive showing with WWE 2K19, WWE 2K20 should've been everything that game was and more. Unfortunately, Visual Concepts really dropped the ball.

    WWE 2K20 is an extremely broken game. One of the most essential and popular modes in Create A Superstar has a lot of glitches such as face morphing being deformed in Gameplay. A lot of Body Adjustment options are warped and don't display as intended.

    Gameplay suffers due to bad A.I and changes to a large portion of the animations and their speed. Many old animations are made unnecessarily slower, and many new animations to the series seem unnecessarily fast; thus messing up the flow of the match. Bugs and glitches are frequent during matches as well.

    The Accelerator DLC has always historically had an option to unlock everything in the game, this entry in the series however forces you to unlock most aspects of the DLC, leaving only the base items in the game unlocked upon activating.

    Crashes/Freezes are frequent in most areas of the game. Long load times in certain menus as well. Cursors constantly not defaulting to the first selection in a list.

    Overall, WWE 2K20 is a huge disappointment. It is one of (if not THE) worst in the series; down at the bottom with Smackdown vs RAW 2008 or WWE 2K15. Hopefully the next game in the main WWE 2K series picks up where 2K19 left off and isn't a repeat of 2K20.

    Sadly, Choosing to part ways with the old developer is not the smart for 2k, WWE 2k20 is not good to be honest. There are many bugs and glitches and to be fair, there is lots of work to do in order to make WWE 2K good again.

    This game is absolute trash; it's a buggy unplayable mess. There is very little that this game has going for it. If it wasn't for the really creative DLC )which I did thoroughly enjoy) and the graphical improvements over 2K19, I would have given this game a 0.

    Absolutely embarrassing piece of trash. For a company like 2K, that has such a large monopoly on Sports game in the current market, their games shouldn't be outshone by PS2 era wrestling games like SVR 06 and 07. Most of the features in those old games are completely missing here. Not to mention the bugs, and overpriced DLC for wrestlers that should be in the game anyway. 2K likes to doAbsolutely embarrassing piece of trash.

Most of the features in those old games are completely missing here. Not to mention the bugs, and overpriced DLC for wrestlers that should be in the game anyway. 2K likes to do that thing where, instead of adding new roster members later on, they just remove them from the full version prior to release and then charge you extra for something that was already in the base code, after you've spent $60. They're one of the most predatory gaming companies out there right next to EA. This practice extends to their other titles such as NBA 2K that is absolutely riddled with microtransactions.

    Not to mention, their idea of ingenuity and fresh ideas for this game peaks at "Hey let's swap the reversal button with the special move button." Yeah such a new gaming experience! Thanks for that. The game feels like an old and tired buggy version of 2K19 with a slightly updated roster, and special moves STILL feel very unimpactful.

    All though this game was broken from the start it did have some redeeming qualities like the towers and big head mode but I felt like it was rushed WWE 2K20 was a step down from 2K19 which was a good game and was a botch but there where some things that was still fun about it though

    Even though at this point many of the tragic problems the game had at its release have been addressed, WWE 2K20 is a shadow of the former games of the series, and only capable of delivering some fun only to the most avid fans of the franchise.

    With the news that WWE games will take a new route regarding the development of their games, we were all skeptical about the future result. Sadly, with the game out now, it is much worse.
