Game Informer has released the first review of the new WWE 2K mobile video game, which is WWE’s first mobile simulation game, setting it apart from previous releases like WWE Immortals and WWE Supercard.
Although Game Informer ultimately recommends fans wait for an updated version of the game to come out before spending $7.99, the review does highlight some bright spots. Below is a review excerpt:
If you’re hoping for the all the bells and whistles of the console games, you’re going to be highly disappointed. A lot is missing from this package, but if you’re looking for a traditional wrestling game with touchscreen controls and your favorite stars, it holds up on the basics.
In the end, WWE 2K is a bare-bones, yet mechanically functional mobile title. If you want to be able to fire up your phone while waiting in line at the bank and beat up John Cena as Rusev you can do that without problems. If you’re expecting depth anywhere close to WWE 2K15, then just keep walking. Though the fact that there isn’t a year attached to this game makes me think that we’ll see more improvements and add-ons over time. If that happens, WWE 2K might become more universally recommendable. As of now, most should take a wait and see approach.
