WWE 2K Battlegrounds es un buen regreso para la saga, y dejándonos un juego divertido para fans y casuals. Mucho más arcade que cualquiera de sus predecesores, un look cartoon bien pulido y un combate entretenido, hacen de WWE 2K Battlegrounds un juego que querrás probar si te gustan los juegos de lucha.

WWE 2K Battlegrounds è una piacevole variante alla più seriosa serie annuale WWE, facendo leva su una grafica ed un character design accattivanti ed un gameplay funzionale che garantisce diverse ore di divertimento. Il roster è solido, con oltre 70 wrestler di ieri e oggi, mentre il carattere arcade del titolo è in grado di avvicinare anche chi non ha mai acquistato un gioco WWE. Il vero punto negativo risiede nella ripetitività delle mosse e dei colpi ma, alla fin fine, ci si può anche abituare pur soffrendo una certa mancanza di profondità e longevità. Una nota di merito va però al prezzo budget, che fa ben digerire le poche mancanze.

Hace años era un gran fan de la WWE, y he invertido muchas horas de juego en alguno de los títulos que explotan esta franquicia del wrestling. Es por eso que cuando se me presentó la oportunidad de analizar este WWE 2k Battlegrounds me asaltaron bastantes dudas, sobre todo por ese aspecto tan particular y esa jugabilidad menos «realista» orientada a dar mamporros sin parar. Sin embargo el resultado funciona bien y es que estamos ante un juego que no busca ser fiel a la realidad, sino ser divertido. Sin más.

WWE 2K Battlegrounds is the WWE’s big release for the year, but it’s taken a new direction after last years effort and is a decent arcade alternative to the previous WWE games. The gameplay is fair and different, but you always expect a decent storyline to play through as well. The comic strip idea is OK but with no voice acting anywhere it just feels a bit weak.

Overall, there’s a quick fix of enjoyment here at most in what is a decidedly average wrestling game. And that unfortunately means that it’s back to the drawing board for 2K as WWE 2K Battlegrounds hasn’t filled the void of the main series.

A simple but enjoyable party game that’s very easy to pick up and play with friends – and a considerably better video game than last year’s WWE 2K20.

Like an early card match at a pay-per-view event, WWE 2K Battlegrounds is meant to keep the crowd entertained before the main event re-enters the arena, but it's rarely as flashy or fun as its concept implies.

WWE 2K Battlegrounds has significantly less online and technical issues than most of the WWE 2K games, but it still struggles to shake off its identity as a small-scale, "budget" game. A lot of it feels rushed or lacks depth, and the result is a relatively barebones, repetitive wrestling game that loses its appeal in mere hours. That being said, those looking to use it as a multiplayer party game may find it to be a worthwhile investment after a price drop.

If there was some sort of "unlock all" option for WWE 2K Battlegrounds that gave everything the game had to offer from the start, this might be an easy recommendation for wrestling fans looking for a multiplayer party game. Throwing wrestlers to alligators and electrified cage matches all have their fleeting charms, and a more fully-featured game could easily sneak into a rotation of favorites. As it stands, the implementation of grind and paid currency wring all the fun out of the experience, leaving a game with some potential that isn't worth the effort to see all the way through. Much like a modern-day RAW main event, the in-ring action is sound if not memorable, but it's the decisions behind the scenes that really ruin it for everyone.
