As with any wrestling game, Exhibition mode is where I had my first Battlegrounds experience. With that said, it doesn’t fall far from the WWE 2K franchise tree as it contains most of the trimmings found in the regular simulation. All of which are executed in quick matches that shouldn’t last more than 10 minutes. But remote controlled goats, flinging oppenents in the air and using motorbikes as weapons is definitely something else. I know, that word is already used a lot to describe wrestling by most. Anything is possible in the world of the Battlegrounds and most of it’s unrealistic. More than 70 of them to be exact, most of which are unlocked via progression or micro-transactions. WWE 2K Battlegrounds is more of a casual experience filled with caricature versions of your favourite wrestlers. Before stepping into the Battlegrounds ring it’s best you leave all seriousness at the door. This lead to WWE 2K Battlegrounds, an arcade version of wrestling which, for the most part, fills the void where wrestling simulation would have been this year.įirst and foremost this ISN’T the wrestling simulation you’re used to, nor is it a simulation at all. Taking a leaf out of NBA Playgrounds book, 2K and Saber Interactive took the sport of wrestling and turned it into a casual gaming experience.
To my surprise, this didn’t mean a wrestling video game was off the table. After a rocky launch for WWE 2K20, the wrestling simulation franchise decided to take a step back for the year.
2020 was the year we weren’t expecting to see anything from the WWE 2K franchise.
