In a world where the only major and breathing wrestling game series is WWE 2K, Wrestling Empire is a steroid shot to the gut. It uses it's simplified engine to it's advantage, it's Superstar Mode is a far deeper dive into the mechanics than 2K has ever given us, and it's generally just a hilarious time dicking around and doing whatever and making fun characters who will implode with rapid intent.

It's great, if you want a Wrestling game and are fucking tired of WWE 2K releasing the same shit and saying it's new and unique and interesting like the Fifa Series then pick up Wrestling Empire and just have a blast. M Dickey will thank you.

This game is an awful, janky mess. That's exactly what makes it so fun! Complete freedom with janky gameplay just... works! Also, you can straight-up kill people.

This is what people on Twitter wish wrestling was

MDickie takes his madness into the mainstream. This is mostly the same game as the previous Wrestling Mpire and its remake/sequel Wrestling Revolution 3D, but now we have a touch more polish and regular updates.

The characters still look as goofy as ever, and the gameplay is as wonderfully jank as they come, but that only adds to the charm. There's the option to mod to your heart's content, so if you want better faces and textures etc, you're more than able.

Diving in headfirst there are so many match options here you could create just about any conceivable scenario in the ring, and create the perfect wrestlers to fill them. From the simple to the absurd. Want a barbed wire cage match with tables and a ring surrounded by a moat of water? You got it.

The controls may take a while to get to grips with admittedly, but the same could be true for jumping in to any wrestling game blind. Once you get the hang of it you'll be throwing your rivals off the Titantron and attending their funerals in no time.

MDickie is a crazy bastard but a passionate crazy bastard. He definitely isn't out here making masterpieces but i'd be lying if i said i dont come back to this every few months, junk food game.
