    The game is not the best try. The problem with the mechanic is sad. But the game can have fun times.

    You'll get the usual WWE 2k experience in this game. However it's mixed in with a ton of glitches and crashes that make it extremely frustrating to play.

The roster is decent, however there are so many names that got left out that have been in previous games. This game feels unfinished and with 2k's track record of patching and updating the WWE games, it seems unlikely this game will improve all that much. Expand

    The story in MyCareer is awesome. There are a lot of glitches in gameplay that I hope they patch. The cutscenes for MyCareer that I've seen so far have had glitching with hair. Graphics have taken a step down but the sweat is much more visible on the characters during the matches which is pretty cool. I haven't tried the 2k originals yet since the pre-order bonus wasn't available atThe story in MyCareer is awesome. There are a lot of glitches in gameplay that I hope they patch.

    You can still have fun with this game if you don't care about some annoying gliches ,the new controls aren't so bad , the game need to be patched to evict more problems. Overall it's a fun game with annoying bugs and a new controls system, it's a normal game

    (Previously, I have not played a wrestling game since WWF No Mercy for Nintendo 64) and find this game pretty fun, it is by no means perfect, and stuff like the referee taking a whole second to get into position to count, the weird as hell hair physics, wrestling attire clipping in your body, and rope clipping are very very bizarre things that should have been fixed prior to release.

    It is average at best, but atleast doesn't force you to buy dlc for character(s), as the community download section offers a lot of things to add on to your game.

    At the very least, consider getting this physically on sale, or used, but do NOT get this new or deluxe at all.

    After the patch 2K20 has improved a bit yet not enough. In my opinion if they did one more big patch, the game would actually be playable.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I have not played the game yet ok so even though I'm giving this game a 5 is because they are fixing it so if it's a good patch I will give it an 8 but come on guys are you really going to bash on this game because of the glitchs this game has cause the rest of the games have glitchs and career does not look that bad so come on guys if they fix it and the patch is good give this game another shot and if you have already posted your score for this game change it if you think the patch helped a lot Expand

    Worst game ever! This game is not ready to publish i don’t know why they published it! Full of damn bugs , full of mistakes , full of application errors! I fell sorry for 2K to create a game like this, I was fan of 2k because of Mafia series but after this game I changed my mind ! The best wwe series maker company is THQ and Yukes !

    A lot of glitches? Maybe.
    Crashes to the max? For sure.
    Still fun despite it being a downgrade from 2K19? Absolutely!

    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.

    Patches may rescue this to some degree. For now, it’s an unfinished game which should remain unpurchased by your wallet. [Issue#170, p.86]

    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.
