WWE 2K15: Path of the Warrior DLC Review

[RaychelSnr]

When there’s a sign during one of the matches in this showcase that says “Load the Spaceship with the Rocket Fuel,” you know the folks at 2K had their heart in the right place when putting together the latest content for WWE 2K15. I kind of figured that this DLC showcase was shaping up to be the best of the three, and that’s certainly the case. While it still suffers from some gameplay quirks and a short playtime (around two hours), it’s got some fun matches that are filled with entertaining historical spots. If you were around during this era of wrestling — or if you appreciate the cartoon wackiness that it brought — then you’ll have a good time with the “Path of the Warrior” DLC.

Nice review, and I agree on most points. For me, the best thing about this DLC is that it allowed me to unlock a bunch of the classic wrestlers and arenas for exhibition play, since the game as-shipped was seriously lacking in retro trappings.

Minor correction, though -- Miss Elizabeth isn't in the DLC. You seem to have her confused with The Sensational Sherri, who was Randy Savage's valet during his time as The Macho King (which is how he appears in the DLC).

Ah, good point. I totally space on that. I guess I was blending previous story modes (last year) with this. I did know that =) I'll have it changed.

Thanks for your comments!

Agree completely with the review. My only other gripe was the setup of some of the arena's, primarily the Wrestlemania 6's Skydome. Besides that, it was a great way to relive my youth!

The saddest part about that is that all 4 of the people mentioned, Savage, Warrior, Sherri, and Elizabeth, are no longer with us. It's really kinda depressing.
