Wrestling Empire

Sense of humour of a 12 year old 4channer. Social system is a frustrating mess, a friend decided he wants to kill me because I didn't buy a shoe off him. The majority of the character conflict is from inevitable miss clicks. Also I swear every match is a massive team match where it's just a bunch of random stuff going on, there's no sense of control, you're just at the whims of the AIs. Wrestlers will just randomly attack you in the streets and then the game acts as if you're the one that started the fight and punishes you for it. It can be really fun at times but it's just not worth it. So much Joe Rogan...

I have around 150 hours on this game on my switch, and I can confidently say that this is the best wrestling game I have ever played(I've played a lot), and as a massive wrestling nerd, it is truthfully one of my favorite games of all time. Great gameplay? Check. An amazing career mode? Check. GM mode? Check. Good character creator? Check. An open world? Check. Going Hollywood like The Rock to film a movie? Check. Murdering and cutting off the limbs of your rivals? Check. And theres so. Much. More. This game is fantastic. While playing, I'll often accidentally chain a move into another move and lose my mind over how amazing it felt. I've been playing a career mode with the same wrestler for over 10 in game years and still haven't gotten bored of it. That should say something about how FUN this game is!! It perfectly embraces the silly, goofy, campy side of wrestling, while simultaneously being one of the most realistic wrestling simulators you can find. The gameplay has depth while being fairly simple, and you can put on some really good, dramatic back and forth matches, while also being arcadey enough that its a perfect pick up and play game. Also if you want crazy match types…

Tons of jank but tons of depth and mods.

At time of writing, this is my second most played game on my Steam Library, which is shocking for what many simply write off as a "meme-game". While the graphics are fairly primitive, the core gameplay is one of the simplest and most engaging wrestling systems I have played, while I briefly have played other wrestling games, their control schemes simply aren't as appealing as Wrestling Empire, so (for my money) it is probably the greatest wrestling video game on the market.

me and mahhh bro

its fun
