Could be cool in theory, but would require Universe to not be a broken mess. Lots of luck with that.

I'm into the idea of Superstar Mode. That GM mode seems like it would get old really quickly, though.
I'm not totally sold on this. Hoping for a demo or a free weekend or something so I can try it out first. Last edited by screech; 02-22-2022 at 01:16 PM. Reason: Did I already post that second part here? I don't know. Hope you're all having fun. |

I can see why they’ve done what they’ve done with MyGM; Universe is the sandbox mode, there would be too much overlap. Might have been a way to integrate the two though. Like play universe in “GM mode” which puts restrictions on budget/roster/etc. As it is I don’t really like the “start in a school gym” bit, that works for MyRise but not so much here.

So the roster was more than likely finalized around WrestleMania last year, which is in line with when they normally do it. But the game just got delayed longer than usual.
The only people they've seemingly removed are Bray Wyatt and anyone that signed with AEW by last fall (Bryan, Cole, Fish, Ruby, Andrade, Black, Nese) |

They've removed advanced entrance creation because it was causing bugs and crashes, not like they've had 2x the amount of time to get things like that fixed....

Yeah a lot of the women leave something to be desired. Carmella looks especially bad.
The dead eyes haven't gone away either, although it's not the only game I've seen where the eyes look kinda fucked up. MLB The Show is that way too. |

I'd say with their eyes that most of them just look sad. Which I suppose checks out if you believe the stories about the general morale levels of the roster nowadays.

I've heard enough reviewers I trust say it actually plays far better than its predecessor, that the controls take some getting used to but it makes matches feel way more natural and fluid.
Still sounds like the game lacks depth though, Universe Mode untouched etc. So I suspect we might hear about people being bored within a month. |

Scan everyone or scan no one. It makes it look half-assed every single release. |

General consensus so far is that this is a definite improvement over 2k20. Still a lot of things they can improve on, but a step in the right direction.
New combat system specifically is being praised as being much more engaging. |

Full DLC packs:
Banzai Pack* Release Date: April 26 Yokozuna Umaga Rikishi Omos Kacy Catanzaro Most Wanted Pack* Release Date: May 17 Cactus Jack The Boogeyman Vader Ilja Dragunov Indi Hartwell Stand Back Pack* Release Date: June 7 Hurricane Helms Stacy Keibler A-Kid Wes Lee Nash Carter Clowning Around Pack* Release Date: June 28 Doink the Clown Ronda Rousey The British Bulldog Mr. T Doudrop Rick Boogs The Whole Dam Pack* Release Date: July 19 Rob Van Dam Logan Paul Machine Gun Kelly LA Knight Xia Li Commander Azeez Sarray --- LMAO. They used to always have 1 or 2 current roster packs, 1 or 2 legends packs, etc. Then they realized some people only care about one or the other and now they've combined the packs to try to get people to buy 'em all. |

a lot of those people were regulars on the roster a few years ago.
That said, if ever there was a selling point for a game, it would be the ability to beat the shit out of Logan Paul. They really should have led with that. |

Look at that, they already made the jump to EA.
Each pack will be $24.99 per pack. Then, you can also buy the season pass for an additional $19.99 every 90 days to unlock exclusive create-a-wrestler cosmetics!!! Just wait for the GOTY Most Stupendous 2k Wrasslin Edition for just $299.95, complete with a 1-week trial of the Pwweacock Network! |

I think there should be a sweet spot in the middle. Sure DLC is fine but throw me some secret unlockable characters in there too man because I miss that as well.

Supposedly there are characters in Career mode that aren’t in the actual game but they’re different versions of people already in the game. Like you face Dominik Dijakovic in NXT. Like, if they bothered to have a model and tron for him why not throw him in as a playable character? Instead of just having shitty ass TBAR.

In 2k18 you had to "buy" certain people with in-game tokens you earned by winning matches. That was kinda neat. I don't think there were nearly as many people behind the paywall.

They have that. There are characters you unlock with in game currency, as well as some you unlock from the Mysterio showcase.

It's kinda funny that Kacy Catanzaro is a part of the Banzai DLC.
