Excitement builds up for WWE fans and gamers alike as the latest edition to the WWE gaming franchise is set to release soon this year. WWE 2K15 is almost out on stores now and fans are beside themselves with anticipation. A successor to WWE 2K14, the new version is all geared and ready to keep gamers glued to their seats, with much improved graphics and gameplay. After it’s inclusion to the 2K Sports franchise, this professional wrestling game, from developers Yuke’s and Visual Concepts, has learnt from previous criticisms on which areas to improve.
WWE gamers have always complained on the lack of good graphics and how the wrestling superstars never look like the characters in the game. This is said to change as this game is making use of advanced head scanning technology and better lighting to come up with life-like graphics. The game will also be using ‘Eco-motion’ technology to make the surroundings, player voices, crowd reactions better and more engaging. Besides these, there are also other improvements in gameplay and changes in game modes.
