There’s plenty of promise in this PC debut, yet it’s impossible to play it without constantly thinking that the number 15 in the title is exactly a year out of date.Game Review WWE 2K15 is a professional wrestling video game developed by Yuke's and published by 2K Sports for PlayStation 3, PlayStation 4, Xbox 360, Xbox One and Microsoft Windows. 2K has welcomed modding and no doubt the oversights regarding Rollins and company will be rectified by the community, but it shouldn’t be up to you and me to bring it up to snuff.
But you won’t be doing it here.Īgain, this lack of attention to detail outside of the ring is what holds WWE 2K15 back from ‘must-buy’ status. Ronda Rousey feud teased at WrestleMania 31? ‘Course you do. Fancy playing out the Stephanie McMahon vs. Paige is omitted despite all other console DLC being included in the price (some yet to be released), and you can’t create female characters at all. This isn’t me trying to pretend that female grapplers don’t exist instead, it’s because your options to play as WWE Divas are extremely limited. You may have spotted a theme in the accompanying screenshots to this review: Summer Rae aside, they’re unmistakably man-tastic. One would assume this’ll be patched imminently, but it’s an almost comical oversight on the dev’s part. Also noticeable is a bizarre bug in which wrestlers (and referees!) play dead during replays. However, others report problems with lesser specs and have had to reduce the number of members in the crowd to achieve a respectable frame rate, so it’s worth a little research in this area before purchase. It runs buttery smooth for me with a Core i5 and NVIDIA GeForce GTX 970. And after a decade-and-a-half spent clamouring for this series to hit PC, that’s a Brock-Lesnar-weighty blow. The bottom line is that no matter how great the wrestling itself-and for the most part, it’s a load of fun-you never feel like you’re playing a game that matches the current WWE product. Fandango sashays down the aisle with blonde dance partner Summer Rae in tow, despite the pair breaking up half a year ago.
This perhaps could fly under radar were it not for the fact that Rollins is the company’s reigning world champion.ĭean Ambrose is similarly kitted out in outdated Shield garb with old Shield music. His outfit, theme, and entrance video all stem from his days in tag team The Shield-which split on June 2 last year, all of 11 months ago. Case in point: current hot property Seth Rollins. So it’s simply staggering that this port is identical to the PS4 and Xbox One versions, both in and out of the ring. When WWE 2K15 landed on consoles in November, my chief criticism was that its roster felt months out of date.
