WWE video games have always been a fan favorite. Whether you enjoyed wrestling in outfits or not popular titles like the WWE 2K series brought the action right into your living room. It was hard not to get caught up in the excitement. The evolution of these games with their options, captivating storylines and multiplayer features kept fans glued to their screens. The blend of nostalgia and innovative concepts, in these games really struck a chord with players. Whether played on a gaming console or mobile device WWE games catered to all tastes appealing to both fans and non-fans.
In all honesty, WWE is still one of the hottest global phenomenons. WWE's success isn't confined to TV. Merchandising is a massive part of the brand. Action figures, T-shirts, posters. Fans proudly display their allegiance. WWE even found its way to the world of online casinos, with slot games like WWE Legends climbing the ladder of hottest mobile slots on the go when it first showed up. Mobile WWE games are also very popular, and the best part? There are many. So here are some of our picks for 2024.
A WWE card game? Yes, you heard that right. WWE SuperCard is all about strategy. Imagine building a deck with legends like John Cena and The Rock. Each card has its own stats and abilities, which you use to compete against others. Players start by collecting them, each depicting a wrestler with distinct stats. Strength, speed, charisma. The essence of wrestling distilled into numbers and abilities. You train these cards, leveling them up, making them stronger. The game offers several modes. Ranked matches, where you battle others for supremacy. King of the Ring, a longer tournament that tests endurance and strategy. Events like Road to Glory and Ring Domination keep the game fresh, offering exclusive cards as rewards. The game was well-received by the audience and got over 10 million downloads.
If you want to try a really good, classic brawler in the shape of an action arcade, WWE Mayhem may be for you. The game blends fighting mechanics with role-playing elements, creating a unique experience. The roster is impressive. From legends like The Rock and Stone Cold Steve Austin to current stars like Roman Reigns and Becky Lynch. Each wrestler has signature moves and finishing maneuvers, recreated with stunning animation. The graphics are, as expected from WWE game, vibrant and over the top, but with a unique twist that makes them feel very modern. The best part? The game is regularly updated with new content and characters. For serious fans, there are even collectibles (toys) and a surprisingly lively forum. The title received good reviews overall. Don’t hesitate.
Released in 2017, this game quickly became a hit thanks to a skillful blend of genres. And don’t worry. It’s still just as good in 2024. So is it an RPG? Puzzle game? Battle game? It’s all. A unique, match-3 puzzle gameplay meets wrestling. A really special combination that makes it an interesting title to play. And just because it’s puzzle-based, don’t think it’s slow. Because it is pretty fast-paced, forcing players to blend strategy and quick thinking. Not just matching gems, but crafting tactics. There are daily missions that keep you hooked and other great features that make WWE Champions worth your download. Despite being released in 2017, it doesn’t really show its age. That, and the fact that it offers a unique blend of genres, makes it a worthy addition to our list.
Simple, unrefined and delightful. That's how we would sum up Wrestling Revolution. While not an official WWE game it clearly parodies the brand in a deserving way. This game combines elements of simulation and action allowing players to enter the wrestling arena and forge their path in that world. The graphics are basic (they oddly remind us of South Park). That’s part of its appeal. The animations are over the top, almost comically adding to the entertainment factor. What sets Wrestling Revolution apart is its complexity. Beyond matches there's a world of backstage drama to navigate. Negotiating contracts, managing rivalries forming alliances. Every choice you make impacts your career trajectory.
