    WWE 2K22 will surprise you with its speed, quality, strong presentation and more arcade gameplay.The game offers a lot of content, although it is still a long way from perfection.

    WWE 2K22 was worth the wait. Form a visual standpoint, the franchise has taken an enormous leap, it looks nothing like it did before. The realism is really there, and it manages to give you the feeling that it is an actual WWE show. Even if the new game modes still need some work, the franchise is moving in the right direction. Also, it does not matter whether you are a WWE fan or not; this game will give you tons of hours with a lot of fun.

    After the last few installments, WWE 2K22 succeeds in bringing the zest back into this long-running franchise. Each match is intense and exciting, and I couldn’t stop myself from exploring different play styles and re-enacting some of my favorite encounters. Even if the whole WWE circus only exists to present a cheap power fantasy, games like this one triumph in highlighting the best side of the affair.

    WWE 2K22 looks good, feels good, and most importantly, it manages to create a solid foundation for the franchise. After being absent for one year, Visual Concepts has managed to deliver one of the best entries in the wrestling franchise, although it also feels like a product that has much more to fulfill.

    WWE 2K22 isn’t a good fighting game, despite the multiplayer being a bit of knock-around fun. The woolly controls, messy inputs, and numerous glitches lead to an underwhelming video game experience, while the lacklustre Showcase and MyRise game modes don't manage to replicate the bombast of professional wrestling, WWE 2K22 isn’t a particularly good wrestling game either. It’s a decent laugh in multiplayer, but with the notably hefty price tag I would expect a lot more than that.

    The game is just disappointing. The game uses dedicated servers which in the UK seem to be impossible to get more then 1 bar connection on.The game is just disappointing. The game uses dedicated servers which in the UK seem to be impossible to get more then 1 bar connection on. Why can't you allow players to host of their own internet so you can play with your friends and have good connection. The graphics are terrible for a modern game made by a company with money. The physics aren't that great. So many times your character just stands still for like a minute straight complaining. If you have low health a single punch will force you into this making the game impossible to play. There is no privet match option so you can't 1v1 with friends unless you create a public game and kick people who join until your friend joins. Seriously no privet match option? How does a new ish game somehow not improve in any way over the PlayStation 2 games? The mechanics feel overall underwhelming for a AAA game made this last generation. Why the hell does a wrestling game now have a huge learning curve where you need to learn every button combo to compete. If your gonna do this atleast make some sort of ranking system that you work your way through so your not stuck getting thrashed every game. Have a server browse along side a ranking system.… Full Review »
