Jarrett Green (IGN)

March 4, 2024

8/10

While not drastically different, WWE 2K24 is better in almost every way, touting small but smart additions to well-tested systems and modes as opposed to taking bigger risks.

Bel Wilson (GamesRadar+)

March 4, 2024

4/5 stars

The most accomplished wrestling game of the last decade – only held back by gnawing MyFaction concerns. A shame.

Allstair McGeorge (Metro GameCentral)

March 4, 2024

9/10

Another improvement after two stellar editions in 2022 and 2023, WWE 2K24 feels like the culmination of a WrestleMania-sized comeback for the franchise.

But Why Tho?	Arron Kluz	6 / 10	03-04-2024	WWE 2k24‘s attempt to appeal to all of its possible audiences is an admirable goal. It is disappointing though how that effort leaves its various elements feeling either disconnected from one another or generally under-baked.	Read review
Capsule Computers	Dustin Spencer	7.5 / 10	03-04-2024	WWE 2K24 doesn’t do a lot to move mountains, but retains its status of head of the table with a ton of quality improvements.	Read review
Cerealkillerz	Nick Erlenhof	9 / 10	03-04-2024	WWE 2K24 improves in every nook and cranny. Every mode has been skillfully polished, only this year’s showcase mode unfortunately falls a little short. However, the graphics, gameplay, variation and attention to detail come into their own almost everywhere. If you have even the slightest interest in wrestling, this will be your game.	Read review
CGMagazine	Shakyl Lambert	8.5 / 10	03-04-2024	Through a combination of an overwhelming amount of content with solid gameplay, WWE 2K24 continues the franchise’s dominance as the Big Dog of wrestling video games.	Read review
Checkpoint Gaming	Luke Mitchell	8 / 10	03-05-2024	It’s great that the WWE 2K series is in such a good place, where it doesn’t need to change much and still remains a must-have for wrestling game fans everywhere. When the bell rings, WWE 2K24 still continues to have the best in-ring action, with a broadcast-like presentation that very much looks the part. It’s filled to the brim with content that will keep you busy until Wrestlemania 41, but its Showcase mode, the key feature of its marketing campaign every single year, needs a serious rethink, as it’s holding the series back from legendary status. It might not Finish the Story, but it’s another damn good chapter.	Read review
COGconnected	Jaz Sagoo	85 / 100	03-07-2024	WWE 2K24 develops on the solid foundation from its predecessors. Each thoughtful tweak and refinement improves the gameplay to faithfully replicate the television experience. New additions help to bolster the package giving you plenty of options to engage in the world of wrestling. While it sticks to the established formula, it’s still a confident step in the right direction.	Read review
Cubed3	Luke Hemming	8 / 10	03-06-2024	One again WWE2K24 is a positive move in the right direction. With fun gameplay mechanics and new match types that leave the door wide open for hilarity, this remains a no-doubt purchase for fans not only enjoying what is being put out weekly by WWE, but also thanks to the focus of Showcase mode this year, those who love a bit of history too. Just about Aweeee-ssssome.	Read review
Daily Mirror	Scott McCrae	4 / 5 stars	03-04-2024	WWE 2K24 is the best entry in the series since it returned in 2022, with Visual Concepts continuing to improve on what makes the series great.	Read review
Digital Trends	Giovanni Colantonio	4 / 5 stars	03-04-2024	WWE 2K24 finishes the wrestling series’ comeback story with its best installment yet.	Read review
DualShockers	Matthew Schomer	9.2 / 10	03-04-2024	Way more than just an annual roster update, WWE 2K24 chronicles the history of sports entertainment’s biggest even with its 40 Years of WrestleMania showcase, but it also shines in a massively improved GM mode and four brand new match types.	Read review
Everyeye.it	Giuseppe Carrabba	8 / 10	03-04-2024	WWE 2K24 does not reinvent the wheel, but expands both the pool of matches of the last chapter, and the possibilities of the combat system, which continues to work well despite some historical edges.	Read review
Game Rant	Dalton Cooper	4 / 5 stars	03-06-2024	WWE 2K24 is a gorgeous wrestling game with hard-hitting fights that will keep players plugged in for hours on end. The series seems to be settling in to the annual release trap of small steps forward over major improvements, but hopefully next year’s entry can provide the big leaps that modes like MyGM need to help the WWE 2K series reach the next level and finish the comeback story that started with WWE 2K22.	Read review
Gamers Heroes	Blaine Smith	9 / 10	03-04-2024	Ultimately, WWE 2K24 is the single best wrestling game on the market today, and the best one in decades. Building on the already solid foundations of WWE 2K23, the in-ring action is smooth and rewarding, the flurry of game modes offers a little something for everyone, and the Wrestlemania Showcase retells some of WWE’s most iconic stories in new and exciting ways.	Read review
GAMES.CH	Olaf Bleich	84 / 100	03-04-2024	With WWE 2K24, 2K Games and Visual Concepts are taking another small step towards the main wrestling match. The many detailed improvements, combined with the high recognition value and the scope of the game, make for an complete WWE package. However, WWE 2K24 is missing the big innovations.	Read review
GamesCreed	Junior Onunkwo	4.6FALSE	03-04-2024	WWE 2K24 has all the fine makings of being one of the greatest WWE games of all time. With the abundance of additions, improvements, and content, how could it not be? This installment will keep you occupied throughout the year until the next game. Lastly, having to experience some of the greatest matches with the 2K Showcase of the Immortals mode had gotten me more excited than ever for the upcoming WrestleMania 40.	Read review
GameSpew	Richard Seagrave	9 / 10	03-04-2024	Whether you’re a fan of WWE or wrestling in general, WWE 2K24 is pretty much a must-have. As ever, it’s a comprehensive package that has something for everybody, and with its enhanced gameplay and expanded creativity options, it’s a title that you’ll likely go back to again and again. It’s assuredly the best WWE game in a very long time — and might actually be a contender for the title of best wrestling game ever.	Read review
GamesRadar+	Ben Wilson	4 / 5 stars	03-04-2024	The most accomplished wrestling game of the last decade – only held back by gnawing MyFaction concerns. A shame.	Read review
Gaming Age	Stan Yeung	9 / 10	03-06-2024	I know I really hammered on the Showcase mode, but I really did enjoy my time with WWE 2K24 as a whole, I just expected better from that mode especially based on its history. Regardless of that mode this is the definitive wrestling video game of this year or even the past five years!	Read review
Generación Xbox	Gabriel Fuentes	8.8 / 10	03-04-2024	This is a new installment that still does not rest on the laurels achieved by the previous ones and continues to add details that make fans happy. Maybe if you are not a die-hard fan of the discipline and you have WWE 2K23 in your possession you do not want to immediately change for this new version given the subtle novelties, at least until it drops in price, but if, on the contrary, you are passionate about WWE, I would tell you not to hesitate and buy it right now, just the impressive roster it has, even without the DLCs already makes it worth the expense.	Read review
Gert Lush Gaming	Jim Smale	8 / 10	03-04-2024	WWE 2K24 offers a comprehensive and immersive wrestling experience with many modes for every kind of player, The Wrestlemania mode sticks out as one of the best in the game.	Read review
GGRecon	Dave McAdam	4 / 5 stars	03-11-2024	WWE 2K24 may be a big investment, but considering this is the best that this series has ever been, that may just be worth it to you. 2K24 is just as undeniable as the American Nightmare on its cover, and a capstone for several years running for great wrestling and great wrestling games.	Read review
God is a Geek	Chris White	9 / 10	03-04-2024	WWE 2K24 is without a doubt the best entry in the series so far, and like the actual product on our TV screens, it feels like the only way is up from here on out.	Read review
Hey Poor Player	Jonathan Trussler	4 / 5 stars	03-04-2024	WWE2K24 is a worthy addition to this long-running sports entertainment franchise. The developers have done a good job of listening to player’s woes and tweaking the formula to make something not revolutionary, but meticulously refined. There’s a vast amount of single-player grappling goodness here to enjoy, and that’s even before you get to the online modes and the inevitably bountiful community creations to come. WWE2K24 doesn’t quite finish the story but still adds a few enjoyable new chapters.	Read review
IGN	Jarrett Green	8 / 10	03-04-2024	While not drastically different, WWE 2K24 is better in almost every way, touting small but smart additions to well-tested systems and modes as opposed to taking bigger risks.	Read review
IGN Italy	Alessandro Apreda	8.5 / 10	03-04-2024	WWE 2K24 is an accessible wrestling video game with an even more complete combat system, a wealth of things to do, people to beat up, and the best of WrestleMania history.	Read review
IGN Spain	Mario Seijas	8 / 10	03-05-2024	WWE 2K 24 takes the formula of its predecessor and improves on it, adding a whole lot of new content in the process. A delight for WWE fans around the world	Read review
LevelUp	Santiago Villicaña	8 / 10	03-07-2024	WWE 2K24 is the wrestling game every fan wants: it offers a lot of content, new types of matches, a very complete roster and it keeps the gameplay fun and fresh all the time. If you love the history and present of WWE, you are gonna enjoy it.	Read review
Metro GameCentral	Alistair McGeorge	9 / 10	03-04-2024	Another improvement after two stellar editions in 2022 and 2023, WWE 2K24 feels like the culmination of a WrestleMania-sized comeback for the franchise.	Read review
MondoXbox	Andrea Giuliani	8 / 10	03-06-2024	WWE 2K24 continues the franchise’s positive streak and packs a title that is sure to satisfy the most avid wrestling fans or even those who have recently become fans of the discipline. The Showcase dedicated to 40 years of WrestleMania, the MyRISE mode and the myriad of content will keep you busy for a long time, with straightforward and fun gameplay, even if it still lacks the technical leap forward we’ve been waiting for.	Read review
NoobFeed	Azfar Rayan	95 / 100	03-04-2024	Looking at WWE 2K24 thus far, it seems like they’re relying a lot on that successful formula from WWE 2K22, and now we might be seeing even more improvements. With everything being said, it is undeniable that WWE 2K24 proves to be successful in every conceivable way. With its impressive graphics, realistic simulation, and plenty of gaming features, WWE 2K24 is undeniably a fantastic game. Those who are passionate about wrestling or who follow WWE will find that WWE 2K24 is a purchase that is well worth making.	Read review
Operation Sports	Josh Houtz	Recommended	03-07-2024	I don’t think there will ever be a perfect wrestling video game, but if you had to ask me which wrestling game in the last 20 years has come close, WWE 2K24 would be at the top of my list.	Read review
Press Start	Brodie Gibbons	8.5 / 10	03-04-2024	WWE 2K24 is such a full, feature-complete wrestling game that it makes me thankful for the franchise capitulation from a few years ago. Without it, the digital squared circle likely wouldn’t be what it is today, it certainly wouldn’t have benefited from the three years of care, respect, and foundation we enjoy today. Instead, it’d remain a story unfinished.	Read review
Prima Games	Shaun Cichacki	9 / 10	03-04-2024	WWE 2K24 continues to build upon the incredibly solid and strong foundation of its previous iterations while adding some extra flair to keep returning fans excited about what’s coming down the line.	Read review
PSX Brasil	Thiago de Alencar Moura	85 / 100	03-04-2024	WWE 2K24 is better than its predecessor, bringing new types of fights, adjustments to game modes and new features that enrich the gameplay of the series, as well as a Showcase that sets a very high standard of quality to be followed by future games in the series.	Read review
Pure Xbox	Fraser Gilbert	8 / 10	03-04-2024	WWE 2K24 is undoubtedly one of the best wrestling games in Xbox history, but it’s also a game that prioritises incremental upgrades over any kind of major overhauls, so casual fans may struggle to justify a full-price purchase. As dedicated wrestling “marks” though, we think the new MyRise stories, superb improvements to MyGM, nostalgia-driven Showcase mode, additional match types and various gameplay adjustments are all worth the price of admission.	Read review
Push Square	Ben Potter	8 / 10	03-04-2024	Far removed from the haunted carnival ride that was WWE 2K20, 2K and Visual Concepts have settled into an extremely reliable groove. The amount of content on offer is absolutely staggering, with grapple fans certain to delight in at least one of the many available modes and 200+ available Superstars. Some visual inconsistencies and a somewhat lacklustre WrestleMania Showcase let the side down, but beyond that, WWE 2K24 is another strong, if safe, entry in the 2K-driven WWE series.	Read review
Rectify Gaming	Unknown	9.5 / 10	03-10-2024	WWE 2K24 is the Wrestling game of all Wrestling games and puts the recent AEW game to shame with the number of modes and matches and the amount of polish to gameplay upgrades.	Read review
Shacknews	David Craddock	8 / 10	03-05-2024	WWE 2K24 is packed with features. Some you know, while others are new or have been given fresh coats of paint. Showcase mode is worth the price of admission alone, but the diverse roster and deep systems kept me playing for hours. No matter what your story is, you’ll have fun finishing it and starting others.	Read review
TechRaptor	Samiee Tee	6 / 10	03-04-2024	Another installment of a satisfying yearly franchise fails to be beset by fatigue, but instead, the greed that tries to make everything else suffer alongside it.	Read review
The Beta Network	Samuel Incze	8 / 10	03-04-2024	WWE 2K24 continues to improve on the 2K series wrestling formula whilst offering a host of new features for players to enjoy. This year’s MyRise storylines are the best ones yet, and the showcase mode is great fun! Unfortunately, Universe mode and GM Mode still seem to be underserved with 2K focusing on MyFaction instead.	Read review
The Games Machine	Claudio Magistrelli	8.9 / 10	03-04-2024	As time has passed, producing one game a year bigger and better than the previous one has become increasingly complicated and expensive. The path taken by WWE 2K24 is therefore logical, with many small adjustments that overall improve the experience across every mode, and a good deal of additions spread across every department. A more than worthy celebration for Wrestlemania XL.	Read review
The Outerhaven Productions	Karl Smart	2.5 / 5 stars	03-04-2024	WWE 2K24 is a fun game with some of the best graphics in a wrestling game ever made. However, the game is too bloated with game modes, many of which you are forced to play in order to unlock content you already paid for. 2K Games needs to stop nickel and dimeing players after the fact and refocus on giving players the best experience for their dollar.	Read review
Twinfinite	Shaun Ranft	4 / 5 stars	03-04-2024	As so many of us continue to learn, nostalgia trips can turn eye-roll-inducing in a hurry. They run the risk of turning into a hackneyed compilation of things we know while sacrificing the overall quality of the end product. A cynical cash-in, as it were. WWE 2K24, it must be said, does not succumb to this particular pitfall.	Read review
Use a Potion	Unknown	9 / 10	03-10-2024	WWE 2K24 is a brilliant experience that offers an authentic take on the wonderful, wild, and wacky world of the WWE. The wrestling itself feels better than ever, there’s a fantastic roster spanning current superstars and legends that’s only going to get bigger, whilst the new match types and refinements go a long way in making this the most fleshed out entry in the series so far. Whether you want to play as a GM, re-live some of the most iconic moments from across forty years of WrestleMania, take your created superstars on a path to stardom in their own story, or build a deck of WWE superstars and earn bonuses along the way, WWE 2K24 has you covered.	Read review
VideoGamer	David Luff	7 / 10	03-04-2024	WWE 2K24 has a game mode for everyone, top creation capabilities, and an engrossing Showcase Mode celebrating 40 years of WrestleMania that will transport you through history.	Read review
Wccftech	Nathan Birch	8 / 10	03-04-2024	With the release of WWE 2K24 this series no longer feels like a carny outcast amongst the other big sports franchises. While the game’s core action could stand to be even further refined, fun new mechanics, match types, and a fully-developed suite of modes, including significantly improved Showcase and MyGM offerings, are worth cheering for. While maybe not quite the total package just yet, WWE 2K24 feels like it’s ready for the bright lights.	Read review
WellPlayed	Adam Ryan	9 / 10	03-04-2024	Riding the momentum of the past two entries, 2K24 brings with it enough new content and meaningful changes to easily be considered the best wrestling game on the market today.	Read review
XboxEra	Jesse Norris	8.5 / 10	03-04-2024	WWE 2K24 is the best wrestling game that Visual Concepts has made by far. They have a complete package, with a massive roster, and a clear vision. If you’ve held off on upgrading at launch the last few years I think this is the time to jump in.	Read review
