#HELLO GAMERS
WWE series are now available on PS4 on PS4 (version tested), Xbox One and PC
The biggest issue with the WWE series in 2017 is that, like most annual sports titles, you just know it can’t truly evolve. That doesn’t mean the end result is bad, but it does take a certain excitement away given you have a good idea of what to expect even before pushing start. This is especially true where World Wrestling Entertainment is concerned because at its core foundations, the game has been more or less the same for a long time.
WWE 2K18 is very similar to the previous installments of the series: the gameplay is still somehow slow, but approachable and easy to learn. If you were hoping for a radical change, you'll be disappointed. On the other hand, if you're looking for a game with a solid roster and full of spectacular moves, well, WWW 2K18 is the right answer.
It's a bit cheeky of 2K to herald Create-A-Match as totally new, but it is a change from 2K17's lack of real match customisation. Hopefully, this will extend to players being able to completely craft their own matches, rather than just deciding whether or not a Steel Cage match can be won by pinfall as well as escape. That won't be enough.
2K's hype here revolves around gamers being able to tweak the rules as they see fit without restriction; at least, that's what the developer blog hinted at. It remains to be seen precisely what level of freedom will be afforded come release. Still, this is a step in the right direction considering the limitations of before.
Being able to take these created match types and play them out in both and exhibition and WWE Universe gameplay sounds promising. Ever wanted to book a Hell In A Cell Match with ladders? Well, hopefully that's what this feature allows.
