Featured review
WWE 2K22 is a HUGE improvement over WWE 2K20, that's obvious. Everything about this particular game is perfect. From it's stunning realistic graphics to the visuals or camera angles when playing a match to it's brief cinematic scenes when perfectly executing certain combos, moves, signatures and finishes. When playing a match with these features it almost feels like your not just playing it, your living it as if your are one of the wrestlers or a fan watching in attendance
MyRise/Career Mode is honestly one of the best modes I've played in a WWE game and for me personally it hasn't been this good since playing the season modes on Smackdown vs. Raw PS2 series back in the day. The multiple choices determine your fate is a neat feature along with many interesting main and sub story features
In the MyRise feature you get to play a solo male version and a solo female version. I've played both and honestly, I believe the female version is far superior in terms of the stories. Your rivals in the female version aren't just one off's like in the male versions, they are recurring rivals in multiple stories making it feel not only personal every time you face them again in certain situations but also highly realistic. They even brought back the classic United States and old Intercontinental championships for the female version of My Rise making those titles strictly for the women
When it comes to GM mode ( General Manager) or as 2K called it My GM for WWE 2K22, while it is slightly limited because you can only use one main world title for the men's division ( WWE, Universal, NXT championships) and for the women's division it's only ( RAW Women's, Smackdown Women's & NXT Women's championships) and no mid card titles for either division like Tag or United States or Women's Tag or Intercontinental
However, with that said. My GM is still a fun and addictive feature as your not only running a brand and your roster but your working on a budget where you have to cover costs for arenas, TV crew, promotion deals, certain objectives from Triple H that are not mandatory to complete including managing your roster itself giving you certain requests or asked to be released ( Can't be fired). I've already played this mode four times
Now with showcase mode with Rey Mysterio it could have been a lot better than what it was because the matches it features were a bit limited. It could have featured more from ECW, WCW and WWE like Rey winning the World Heavyweight title at WM 22 was missing from this showcase. But this showcase and the matches it had were worth it in order to get all the unlockables. Best part is when doing a match in showcase at certain points the gameplay feature with transition to actual footage of the match your playing and then back at the gameplay
Overall, WWE 2K22 is an amazing game and a return to quality for WWE video games and WWE 2K in general. It's far superior to the overrated 2K19 and for a long time, I used to consider Smackdown Here Comes The Pain was the greatest wrestling game of all time but now that WWE 2K22 is out and played many hours out this and still do, it blows Here Comes The Pain right out of the water.
