    RetroMania Wrestling is a breath of nostalgia reminding me of the great wrestling games over the years. While fans of Wrestlefest and other Technos greats will see the similarity in design quickly it nods to many more wrestling games of the past. As a fan of Mat Mania in the arcade as well as many others over the years.

While fans of Wrestlefest and other Technos greats will see the similarity in design quickly it nods to many more wrestling games of the past. As a fan of Mat Mania in the arcade as well as many others over the years. There’s a lot to offer here and RetroSoft is tossing around ideas for more modes and such as well as coming soon wrestlers. For what this game is, and indie developed wrestling game dating back to 10 years ago to a fast track development in about 2 years time, it’s simply a must have for fans of all the wrestling games of my generation. Wrestling isn’t what is was back in the early days of Wrestlemania and the decades to follow. Over time the huge stars and excitement of the wrestling scene became watered down and so did the games. RetroMania Wrestling I ripped through all the achievements in a couple hours as a veteran of button smashing and up, down, left right formula master. I love the CPU vs CPU vs matches and found my favorite Character the Big Meanie can dominate the squared circle for those who may struggle with the retro control. In my mind this game is exactly what it should be and I’m excited to see what the RetroSoft team has in store in the future for its fans. Fans must rumble on over to the Xbox digital games store and smash the buy button like you just put your opponent in a figure 4 leg lock. Well done RetroSoft well done indeed…. Expand

    Retrosoft Studios "RetroMania Wrestling" Might be the best wrestling game in over a Decade. Highly recommend this for fans of Retro wrestlign games.

    Great gameplay, however the lack of an extensive roster and create a wrestler knocks it down a couple of notches.

    While not perfect and sorely lacking playable female characters, RetroMania Wrestling is an enjoyable, feature-packed love-letter to the late 80’s and early 90’s era of wrestling videogames and the WWF in general.

    Retromania Wrestling is a brilliant throwback to the 90’s when wrestling games were simple and fun, and it ticks all the right boxes. The art style is fantastic and I had so much fun playing it. If you are a wrestling fan you must grab this – you will not be disappointed!

    RetroMania Wrestling is a game designed with a very specific type of professional wrestling fan in mind, and those individuals may be able to enjoy it for what it is. It has a nice selection of arenas and a small but decent roster. The biggest problems with RetroMania Wrestling are its lack of content and high price point, but maybe future updates will make it a more fully-featured game that matches its asking price.
