WWE 2K26
SCORE: 60
Noah and I had some fun live streaming WWE 2K26 right before
WrestleMania. We played many of the matches from WrestleMania with a
twist. What I mean by that is we played Roman Reigns versus CM Punk in
an Inferno Match. Those are going to have a regular match at
WrestleMania. It was fun to try out some of the matches that were
brought back in WWE 2K26. I also finally won a Royale Rumble match on a
livestream with LA Knight.
The issues families can have with WWE 2K26 are violence, blood, lack of
attire, enticement to lust, bad language and more. There is something
really odd about WWE 2K26. The women come into the men's matches like
the Royale Rumble. I am sorry but the women are not as good as the men.
The women would get beat bad in real life in most instance. WWE 2K26
teaches that women can physical compete with men. We all know that it
not the real world.
There are a lot of different matches and modes within WWE 2K26. The
current systems have been around long enough to include a decent amount
of modes. The controls are off and on in WWE 2K26. At times things
worked great in WWE 2K26. At other times it was frustrating. The timing
on turning around a move can be obnoxious. I also could trigger a
charged finisher only to have it broken up easily. It took a lot to
charge that.
The match grading in WWE 2K26 is all based on how many different moves
are performed. There is no face versus heel concept in that. For example
say the heel gets absolutely destroyed in WWE 2K26. In that instance the
grading might be half of a star. Yet the crowd in the real world would
have loved that match. It might have been hollow but at least a three
star in my personal opinion.
WWE 2K26 is a massive installation. The graphics look decent. The audio
is nice. Even with turning off the music I ran into a video copyright at
the beginning of the game. Noah and I both felt WWE 2K26 is a bit better
than the last one. This franchise has been slowly improving in most
regards. There are still areas we both feel WWE 2K26 needs to improve.
There are still too many characters behind a pay gate even though they
are in the game.
