2K Games and Yuke's have heard the critics and learned from them. WWE 2K18 improves throughout on its predecessor. My Career mode is full of possibilities and Road to Glory provides endless fun. In addition, WWE 2K18 has some new mechanics that bring variety to the fights and it has the largest roster in the entire series.
WWE 2K18 starts strongly and the nostalgic atmosphere of the game take you back to good old days of the series. But the fact that there’s no other game on the market to challenge it causes the developers to leave some small issues unpolished. Yet, WWE 2K18 is a great sports game and one the best WWE games ever.
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.
Yuke's seems trapped in a Sharpshooter, that's the only way to explain this uninspired chapter in the series.
While WWE 2K18 does hit enough right notes for a recommendation, it still leaves something to be desired. As much as I like the style of these newer games, I miss being able to be as nonsensical as the older ones would allow. All in all, it's a toss-up for me.
WWE 2K18 has numerous visual improvements this time around compared to past years and with that being said, gameplay remains the same and the usual technical problems still exist.
The passion is gone from this franchise and something needs to be done to get it back. The good thing is, like many other die hard wrestling fans, I’m very forgiving and this year’s enhancement talent-like performance won’t deter me from checking out next year’s release. But unfortunately, I can’t recommend this year’s release to anyone. Stick with the older games in the series for now.
