WWE 2K24
- Impressive visuals with realistic character designs and animations
- Subtle but smart additions to well-tested systems and modes
- New mechanics including Super Finisher and trading blows minigame add depth to gameplay
- Cute new weapon options for fun and funny ways to do damage at range
- Improved AI for managers and non-legal tag team partners
- Special guest referee match adding potential for multiplayer chaos
Pros
- Nagging bugaboos persist, like Showcase mode suffers from the inability to recreate genuine moments in wrestling history in video game form
- New trading blows minigame feels abrupt and doesn't significantly impact gameplay
- Limited significant differences between 2K24 and last year's edition in terms of mechanics
- Missed opportunities in recreating infamous moments from real life wrestling matches in game modes like casket match and Showcase mode
- Uneven storytelling in MyRise with smaller feuds and matches that feel like filler episodes
