Rather than release another broken release in the form of WWE 2K21, the decision was made to release the first arcade-like wrestling game published by 2K ever since Take-Two Interactive acquired the license in early 2013. However, the wrestling community had enough after being bamboozled with yet another yearly release in the form of WWE 2K20. Once simulation gameplay took over, it took more skill for players to jump in which minimized the player base.Įach installment became more and more like the last which mimicked what other yearly sports franchises have been doing for decades. Prior to 2K acquiring the rights to the WWE franchise, arcade-style video games appeared to be the norm as people of all ages could pick up a controller and button mash their way to victory. Would there ever be a game quite like 2011’s WWE Allstars to scratch the itch longtime fans have been waiting for? After simulation-based gameplay took over following the disintegration of THQ, all hope was erased.

From lackluster releases to nearly unplayable installments for the main WWE 2K franchise, wrestling fans all over patiently awaited the day a true return to form wrestling game would come to light. The WWE franchise of video games has had a turbulent few years to say the least.
