You can play all of these match types with friends or foes in multiplayer, and this is where the game is at its best. Maybe the wrestlers have just bought WWE 2K Battlegrounds and they're picking up the money to make themselves feel better before they leave the cage. There's also a Royal Rumble mode in which you bash square a bunch, and then you can mix it up by bashing L2 and R2 to throw your opponent over the top rope to eliminate them before doing it to somebody else.Ĭage matches are slightly different in that you have to knock your opponent down - by bashing square - and then climb the side of the cage to pick up money (we don't know why) and then once you've picked up enough money you can climb over the top of the cage to win. The wrestlers have their official entrance music, but they don't really have entrances - they just drop down from the sky in a crate at the start of the match and stand there weirdly while the first twenty seconds of their music plays.Īs for game modes, aside from the standard one on one matches, you can also bash square to win in matches with three or four wrestlers, or you can spice it up by bashing square in a tag-team match. They're kinda hideous looking, like a Toy Story rip-off about wrestling figures made on a shoe-string budget. The art style for the game is meant to evoke hyper-stylised WWE action figures brought to life, right down to the blister packaging that they pop out of when you buy new wrestlers from the store. Considering there's a character creation suite in the game it seems like a missed opportunity for the campaign to star crummy, made-up wrestlers you'll have no affinity for, but then they'd have had to give you lots of character creation options from the start rather than locking them behind a paywall in the store, and that just wouldn't do. You'll play through the campaign as a handful of fake wrestlers created specifically for the story, each trying to make their name in WWE. You can have the whole thing wrapped up in five hours or so. The story is occasionally genuinely amusing, although we're not sure whether that's by design. The story is told in a comic book art style, and involves Paul Heyman convincing WWE owner Vince McMahon to start a new, more extreme wrestling show set in different locales throughout the country. The short campaign is the most fun you can have on your own playing Battlegrounds. Unlocking superstars should be exciting, but since they all play the same you'll likely end up feeling like you've seen everything the game has to offer in an hour or two.
#WHEN DOES WWE 2K BATTLEGROUNDS COME OUT SKIN#
Essentially, each wrestler is just a skin that comes with a couple of special attacks. The wrestlers are split into a handful of classes and all wrestlers of the same class have the same move-set, the only difference being their finishing moves. You don't need to do any of that though because the artificial intelligence is so stupid that just tapping square will see you through most battles.
You can also press triangle if you want, or if you're feeling really feisty you can use the right analogue stick to do one of four different grapples. WWE 2K Battlegrounds is a cartoony wrestling game in which your objective is to press square repeatedly until your opponent is dead and then you can pin them for the win.
