A New Direction for 2K and WWE?

05:52 PM - July 14, 2014 by RaychelSnr

Even though the weather is just now starting to heat up, It’s never too early to start thinking about the newly 2K christened WWE videogame.

This year's edition seems to offer more promise now that the authenticity driven Visual Concepts - the in-house development team at 2K Sports - is taking direct involvement in the production of the game this year. Yukes will still be involved, but the fact that Visual Concepts is now on board puts a smile on a lot of faces. What exactly will this mean for the franchise? Only time will tell, but if Visual Concepts treats “WWE 2K15” like their other sports titles, I think fans of the series might be in for a treat.

just reading this gave me chills about the game! this needs to be in a MyPlayer mode or something, good write-up!

I actually think they should steal a couple ideas from FireProWrestling. But maybe that's wishful thinking....

this is the 1st wrestling game that im actually excited for since "here comes the pain"

just need to see gameplay to push me over the top

This is all possible, just won't happen this year unfortunately. I imagine if there is a career mode, it'll be story driven unfortunately. I've always liked the idea of influencing events in a career mode, really makes it unique to the player.

I would be all for a career mode. I didn't really enjoy 30 years of Wrestlemania or Attitude mode. I'm more of a current roster guy (though the announce for Sting excites me) and I found those modes more tedious than fun.

Career Mode Please!

That would be pretty awesome. If it plays and handles as well as NBA 2k14, then it should be a really good game. The MyPlayer career mode has long been one of my personal favorite gaming modes and with it having more of a story arc on its debut for PS4/Xbone, it has a bit more length to it. So I think if they incorporate something like that, then its going to be dang good.

I would like a Monday Night Wars mode, if they go that route. The 30 Years of WM and the Attitude Era modes were full of nostalgia for me. In fact, I hadn't watched wrestling in about 8-9 years but played those games and it got me interested in wrestling all over again.

I would love love love a MyWrestler type mode for this game!!! Plus more improvements to the Universe mode. Maybe even bring back some of the options from the GM Modes of SvR.

Reed is comin' atcha!!

I'm legitimately excited. I have always been a fan of the WWE series but felt the series got stale in the last few years. It's understandable, it is very difficult for one team to continue to iterate and innovate from year to year. VC generally does an outstanding job, in general, and they are inheriting a quality product to polish. With almost 2 years to develop, one would think this game could be big, and could be the final chip to entice me to join the new console era.

As long as the story arc isn't super linear on it I would love something like this. This will be my first WWE game purchase in years and I'm actually very excited about it. There are a lot of things that I'm looking forward to in this game. Maybe (but probably not) they'll even throw in some extra features such as DLC for those of us that also subscribe to the network.

The attitude era is right in my wheelhouse, but WWE '13 was boring and wayyy to hard for a super casual guy to pick up and play. A real story/career mode brings me back to the Wrestlemania 2000 and No Mercy years

# 12 StillFunkyB @ 07/16/14 06:38 PM

looking forwared to my first wrestling game since WCW on N64

now, if CM Punk would just return

# 13 Sausage @ 07/17/14 11:09 AM

I can't wait either; getting use to the controls on 2K14 now to be ready.

# 14 BCDX97 @ 07/18/14 03:45 PM

I think the Attitude Era and 30 Years of WMania modes in the past two games have been great, better than any of the story modes that had in the past.

A career mode would be cool, I guess, but if they gives us A, ya want B, if the give us B, you want A.

Both would be cool.
