[NongEyeGong]

1st gameplay trailer!!

[YT]PtLAbwsYwLU[/YT]

Demon Balor looks phenomenal. Everything just looks like a huge shift in the right direction as far as general improvements, an up to date roster and overall presentation goes.

We should be hearing more about the Season Pass contents soon.

 

[X Knight]

^ I'm most interested in taking a look at the Creation suite. want to see how CAW has changed and if they've added anything new.

would love to see more mask variety, including "half masks" that don't the whole head.

 

[Broseph44]

Looking awesome

 

[Darkness Falls]

liking the updated lighting/graphics
looks phenomenal

really excited to see the 8 player action gameplay

 

[Mani-Man]

It looks decent enough, typical wwe2k trailer...nothing really grounbreaking.

The Light sometimes looks very bright and all, i guess this is something we have to get used to.
Other than that it looks nice...but so did 2k17 before we knew how broken it was.

Need to see a features trailer to know if i will buy it.

WWE 2K18 Creation Suite developer diary is up:

[YT]uDKIbT1lwr0[/YT]

I'm loving the new stuff they added to create-a-wrestler. I'm also really excited to see that the Hammerstein Ballroom and the high school gymnasium have been added to create-a-arena. I can finally do a legit indie universe mode now!

 

[AndrewGilkison]

When I buy the game I am going to create my old E-Fed character and do the MyCareer mode. I am pretty far into 2K17's MyCareer with another character I created (won the U.S. Title against Cena).

So, WWE and 2K just released this video of Snoop Dog rapping about the WWE 2K18 roster and Matt and Jeff Hardy are featured in it...

hmmm......

that almost feels like the Hardys should be in the base game. otherwise, that trailer is tantamount to false advertising.

someone watching that vid would think the Hardys are in the game just like all the other characters featured in the vid are part of the base game, as far as I can tell.

did this video show any characters who are not part of the base game?

Matt just confirmed on Twitter that they're DLC. 2K is also teasing they will be announcing the DLC packs tomorrow.

nice!

I still feel the new trailer was a bit misleading, though.

maybe someone jumped the gun and released it early. but it should have been saved for tomorrow with the DLC announcement, and clearly noting the Hardys as DLC.

 

[NongEyeGong]

Drew McIntyre, Elias and Ruby Riot all confirmed as DLC alongside the Hardyz.

Hoping this means that we can use an acoustic guitar as a weapon again. It's been so long since we've had that.

[Broseph44]

More announced as DLC

Lars Sullivan
Rock N Roll Express

More announced as DLC

Lars Sullivan
Rock N Roll Express

I gotta admit, Lars is definitely a dark horse pick, did not see that coming. I really need to get caught up on NXT but I caught him in a match during a live event in my town and he seemed like he fitted the atypical monster heel mold. It was a squash so I couldn't really judge his in-ring work.

Stoked for the Rock 'N' Roll Express. Fingers crossed we get Jim Cornette in the game as a manager so I can have them feud with my Young Bucks CAW.

They're announcing two more DLC wrestlers today, I'm hoping that there will be more beyond that.

 

[Broseph44]

Curious but does anyone else do multiple Universe modes like myself? I usually try to keep certain eras to one universe.

 

[X Knight]

NongEye, Broseph, what platform will you be getting this on? PS4?

 

[Broseph44]

Beth Phoenix is another confirmed DLC

And I am on ps4

cool!

I still haven't decided which platform to get it on.

 

[Broseph44]

Aleister Black confirmed DLC

I gotta say, compared to last year's offering this is a little disappointing. The initial DLC is great but I was hoping for much more including maybe a few more arenas. The exclusion of Almas and the UK Division is a bummer as well.

great! thanks for the DLC info. I agree it does feel like it's missing one more character pack. But overall I'm pleased.

and I'm leaning towards the PS4 version myself. but it depends on if I get the Xbox One X this fall or not.

 

[wampa1]

There are more superstars on the actual disc this time round though.

 

[Team Andino]

Any reason why Andrade Cien Almas isn't even DLC, let alone the original games roster?
