WWE 2K24: The takeover is happening today all over Attack The Culture for the must-play game
Just keeping things completely honest? The folks over at 2K are beyond amazing and my goodness - having the chance to load up both the WWE 2K24 Deluxe Edition and Forty Years of WrestleMania Edition titles ahead of today’s launch day? Beyond amazing - thank-you, thank-you, thank-you.
With the thank-you’s fully secured, it’s definitely vital to keep things 100 on the new WWE 2K24. It’s beyond stunning. My goodness - if you’re the type of person who has become accustomed to how well-polished 2K is with their titles - whether we’re talking about PGA 2K23 or NBA 2K24, then you already know the quality alone is going to blow any potential competition away - easily. So getting to the opening sequence of WWE 2K24 and seeing just how crisp the presentation is in respect to both the real-life footage and digital quality? I mean, the photos don’t lie:
I mean, seriously - just looking above? It’s insane. The below screen being the actual gameplay and the above being a WWE NXT broadcast? Freaking insane. And to be clear - I have had the luxury of trying out both editions on the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S and it’s a no-brainer - both platforms deliver the quality you have come to love and expect.
But more than anything, as much as I love the graphics and smooth display, there are the tidbits you loyal WWE 2K gamers are looking for - so let’s get the tidbits in place:
