2019 wasn’t a good year for WWE fans who just so happened to be gamers. With the splitting of Yukes and 2K Games, Visual Concepts were left to pick up the ball in trying to make the latest installment in the “WWE 2K” series practically from scratch while under a strict deadline. The end result was a sheer disappointment of an experience that saw fans turn against the developer & publisher for not delaying what should’ve been an evolution of a mostly fun “WWE 2K19”. Deciding it was for the best for the “WWE 2K” franchise, the developers changed their approach for 2020 by presenting a game the embraced the absurdity of pro wrestling and WWE in general. With dozens of modern-day warriors and WWE legends doing battle in and out of the confines of a stereotypical arena, players will power up, throw down, and even blaze through competition. Don’t be afraid to enter the Firefly Funhouse, face your fears, and get these first impressions of “WWE 2K Battlegrounds”.
