Storylines and Roster: A Perfect Tag Team

WWE 2K24 bridges the gap between eras, creating a seamless transition from the past to the present. For those of us who’ve been away from the current TV run, the familiar storylines evoke memories of classic matches, rivalries, and larger-than-life personalities. It’s like catching up with old friends—Stone Cold Steve Austin’s rebellious stunner, The Rock’s electrifying promos, and the Undertaker’s eerie presence. But fear not, fellow fans of now—the game serves up a current-based roster that’ll have you chanting, “This is awesome!”

Roman Reigns, Becky Lynch, and the Fiend step into the spotlight, ready to redefine sports entertainment. WWE 2K24 invites you to relive iconic moments while embracing the pulse of today’s wrestling scene. And if you’re playing the deluxe version, get ready for a treasure trove of extra content. I won’t spoil the surprises, but trust me, there’s something for everyone.

Graphics: A Blast from the Past

WWE 2K24 delivers stunningly realistic graphics and improved animations. With over 90% of facial expressions updated, the characters come to life like never before. The game also features enhanced Ramp cameras and Dive cameras, providing dynamic views during gameplay. Whether you’re a wrestling enthusiast or a gamer, WWE 2K24’s attention to visual detail promises an impressive experience!

The attention to detail in the roster is astounding. As you scroll through the character selection screen, you’ll catch yourself thinking, “Am I watching an old ’90s wrestling tape?” The camera angles, the arena shots—they transport you back in time. Even on the PS5, the graphics hold up beautifully. It’s like witnessing a live TV broadcast, complete with the iconic entrance music and pyrotechnics. The nostalgia factor is off the charts.

Gameplay: Dream Matches and Unexpected Twists

Sure, I wish WWE 2K24 gave us more initial roster options, but the mix we do get is enough to ignite our imaginations. Picture this: John Cena and The Undertaker teaming up against Dude Love and HBK Shawn Michaels. Yes, I made that happen, and it was glorious. The magic lies in creating your dream matchups—athleticism, drama, and those jaw-dropping moments. Who knows? Maybe one day we’ll witness these epic clashes in real life.
