The music aspect of the game has received significant criticism from users, with many expressing a strong desire for the inclusion of individual entrance theme songs for each wrestler, as well as unique victory music. Players feel that the absence of these features detracts from the overall authenticity and enjoyment of the game, which they believe could be greatly enhanced by incorporating the iconic music associated with WWE superstars. Overall, the consensus is that adding these musical elements would elevate the gaming experience to a new level.
- “The game is good, but it needs more upgrades, including entrance theme songs, a referee, and we need to see the commentators and crowd.”
- “I loved this game; the control is easy and the graphics are superb, but I think it will be much better when you add the WWE player's entrance music. Obviously, if it's possible, then it will create a fabulous environment.”
- “The game is awesome and lit! But I wanted to give a suggestion: if the original entrance song of each superstar is played after their victory, then it would be extraordinary.”
- “There is no entrance song for wrestlers and not any event match like: hell in the cell, summer slam, wrestlemania, and extreme rules, etc. and the last thing is that we can't announce or speak anything on a mic.”
- “No fighter entrance music which is something everyone in the world is fond of, and no original soundtracks... I don't care how much the size will be, it should look like WWE 2K18 or 2K19 like on consoles.”
- “2 stars deducted because there is no theme song for wrestlers; only one song is played on every victory instead of the theme song of the wrestler.”
