WWE 2K24 review An awesome, action-packed fighting game.

If there’s one thing WWE 2K24 can teach other annual sports games, it’s the power of taking a break. Seriously, just sit one out. Play FIFA 20 or Madden 20 today, then jump to their current versions, and you’ll still feel a sense of familiarity. But revisit the trainwreck that was WWE 2K20 – the game that triggered a 29-month hiatus and a complete reboot of the series – and you’ll notice a palpable difference. Three years into this new era of the Smackdown/2K franchise, Visual Concepts has delivered a brilliant, bombastic, and bruising brawler.

快速信息: WWE 2K24

  • 发布日期: March 8, 2024
  • 平台: PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X, Xbox One, PC
  • 开发者: Visual Concepts
  • 发行商: 2K

Unfortunately, money talks, and no serious publisher is going to skip a year’s worth of sales unless they absolutely have to. It’s a pity because the Cena-strong foundations of WWE 2K22 and 2K23 are still present, with enhancements and other flourishes added on top. WWE 2K24 offers more new match types than any wrestling game in recent memory: special guest referee, ambulance, casket, and three different flavors of gauntlet. You can now throw weapons and unleash super finishers, such as a top-rope manhandle slam for Becky Lynch (who even gets ‘welcome home!’ chants if you use her in NXT). And the level of authenticity is outrageous, with over 240 roster members, seven real referees, three different ring announcers, and even appearances by the legend himself, Muhammad Ali.

Central to all this is the way WWE 2K24 handles. Wrestlers behave according to their attributes, and matches unfold differently depending on weights, move-sets, and player skill. There’s a heft to behemoth Braun Strowman, a daintiness to Spanish high-flier Axiom, and a sense of technical excellence when controlling Chad Gable or Kurt Angle. But that was true of the previous editions as well. What sets WWE 2K24 apart are the countless new animations and the greater sense of fluidity. New Paybacks, such as Rage, immediately fill your finisher meter and boost the fun factor. Fresh camera angles during entrances and pin attempts enhance realism, as do tag partner instructions and more involvement from managers – like Ludwig Kaiser removing the turnbuckle unprompted to help Gunther retain his Intercontinental title.

And it’s not just the in-ring action that improves. After two false starts, MyGM has now become deep, detailed, and replayable. In this mode, you helm one of four brands throughout a series of 25-week seasons. You get to draft wrestlers, book matches, and focus on management minutiae, such as arena sizes and pyro effects. Bouts can be simulated, watched, or played yourself. The competitive element is great, especially against another human, and building up lesser-known wrestlers towards greatness becomes increasingly engaging – particularly when your scouts uncover hilariously hammy fictional jobbers. With over 240 real wrestlers on the roster, I still find myself loving the escapades of Chuck McWagon and Cindy Fluff.

While MyGM treats matches as legitimate sporting contests – with the AI deciding results unless you take control – the Universe mode puts you in charge of every brand, show, and match result. Although pared down compared to previous years, it’s still a straightforward and all-consuming experience to book match cards and select cutscenes. MyRise, on the other hand, offers one story each for the women’s and men’s divisions. No spoilers, but the male tale follows Roman ReGameTopics vacating his title after 1,253 days, and your quest to steal his spot is full of branching options and cute Easter eggs. The women’s story throws in cameos from cult faves Cole Quinn and Geneva Rose, which are very welcome.

然而,你可能已经注意到了一个不一致之处。WWE 2K24在几乎所有方面都比2K23有所改进,但它仍然获得了相同的四星评分。你会想知道为什么,主要原因在于两种模式。其中一种模式开始显得有些过时,而另一种模式则有可能永久地拖累整个系列。

展示赛事(Showcase)是一个历史悠久的系列传统,通过参与昔日比赛的游戏,获得解锁内容和视频娱乐。但这种格式逐渐变得乏味,今年的主题——《终极格斗之夜40周年》——令人失望。看到类似罗迪·派博(Roddy Piper)对决布雷特·哈特(Bret Hart)这样的经典比赛受到关注是很棒的,但其他比赛一旦进入阶段就会变得枯燥乏味。我们再次要面对糟糕的配乐,而不是评论,尽管Corey Graves的视频包装很出色。这种格式感觉很程式化,一旦解锁所有内容,你可能就不太可能再玩了。

在系列中最具争议的模式之一,MyFaction也再次登场——这让我们回到了前面提到的短语:金钱说话。就像FC24的究极团队(Ultimate Team)一样,你不断被推向这种模式。一个粉丝请求的变化是受欢迎的:Persona卡。MyFaction中解锁的花招现在可以在WWE 2K24的其他部分中使用。但即使这样也带来令人沮丧的警告。菜单和选手选择屏幕显示这些卡片的人脸和名字被遮掩起来,有效地提醒你需要玩MyFaction来完善你的阵容。你知道,这种包含需付费货币的模式。这使整个WWE 2K24其他部分的所有出色改进都蒙上了污点。

MyFaction增加了一些新元素,例如更多的4×4比赛类型,甚至一些类似地牢探险的功能,比如持久伤害。那些喜欢这种模式的人可能会喜欢这些调整。然而,对于许多粉丝——社区中有越来越多的人呼吁移除它——MyFaction比起被称为绝地奇兵的兰迪·奥顿(Randy Orton)对布雷·怀亚特(Bray Wyatt)在终极格斗之夜33的灾难更让人反感。

幸运的是,那场灾难并未出现在展示赛事中,但我们却看到怀亚特在去年8月过世时的五个不同版本。这,连同真实的裁判、拳击宣布员和额外的比赛类型的加入,表明2K正在倾听其观众并渴望提供粉丝服务。不幸的是,MyFaction感觉更加与这种理念矛盾。但正如我们所说,金钱说话,它仍然是这个重振系列确立真正伟大地位的最大障碍。
