WWE games have had a good introduction for a while now, especially compared to other sports game franchises. (Hi, Madden! Your skills trainer is great, but it needs to be about three times its current size!
The review of WWE 2K25 on IGN highlights the game's significant improvements over its predecessors, particularly in terms of gameplay mechanics and presentation. The game introduces a new "Super Finisher" system, enhancing the drama and spectacle of matches, and features a more fluid and realistic wrestling experience with updated animations and physics. The roster is expansive, including both current stars and legends, with detailed character models and improved AI behavior. However, the review notes some persistent issues like occasional glitches during matches and a somewhat lackluster MyCareer mode, which feels repetitive despite new storylines. The Showcase mode, focusing on WrestleMania's history, is praised for its engaging narrative and integration of real-life footage. Overall, WWE 2K25 is described as a robust wrestling game that, while not perfect, offers a compelling experience for fans of the WWE franchise.
