Exceptional when it all works, but for the third year running launch-day gremlins prohibit an even greater score.

Critic Reviews
Great in the Ring, Mediocre Elsewhere
It’s been a long time since I’ve sat down to watch a spot of WWE, but I still like to dabble in a wrestling game occasionally.

While WWE 2K18 does hit enough right notes for a recommendation, it still leaves something to be desired. As much as I like the style of these newer games, I miss being able to be as nonsensical as the older ones would allow. All in all, it's a toss-up for me.
65%You’ll play it relentlessly, but bugs hold it back from five-star status.
