This year, THQ decided to go ahead and totally overhaul their fighting system and end the Smackdown -vs- Raw series. What becomes a result of their hard work and dedication is a wrestling game that they proclaim is bigger, badder, and better – WWE 12′.
Alex & Mike talk Biomutant, a game from Experiment 101/THQ Nordiq you likely have not heard of. While the AAA side of the industry tends to homogenization and imitative, cinematic presentation, “AA” games remain creative and innovative in 2021. Drawing on inspirations as varied as Dark Souls, third person shooters & kung fu cinema, Biomutant is Ratchet & Clank on acid, developed by a team of 20 people.
I feel I should explain my issue with Yuke's
Personally I wanted a 2d fighter, considering AEW been doing promotions with Capcom i thought we'd see a 2D fighter featuring AEW Wrestlers and Street Fighter, whether it's classic side scroller or vs. I'm fed up typical wrestling games, I'd like to see something different. The pro to all this is that they have the original director from No Mercy. Just have to wait and see but I'm not getting my hopes up. At least we have AEW, cos damn WWE sucks atm
I feel like you shouldn't. The game is super early in development and will be using next-now-current gen hardware with fresh insight on today's product. Shut up and give the game a chance.
I'm optimistic for the AEW game. Kenny Omega is a legit gamer, he played a lot of Street Fighter while he was busy putting on classic matches in New Japan. He was training/sparring in Street Fighter with some of the best players in the world - like Infiltration and Poongko for example - during his time off!
Thankfully I got Fire Pro Wrestling World to keep me going for years to come.
AEW’s new video game might be the wrestling games fans have been asking for decades.
The director of No Mercy and Def Jam games is involved, which explains the style of graphics. Exactly what I was hoping for. However this was an in engine CGI trailer. With Yukes, Iwashita from AKI, and Kenny Omega creating this game, all wrestling fans should be hype for this. This is the one we've been waiting 20 years for people.
I agree. The lack of actual gameplay and information has me worried. I'd love a re-release of no mercy
I didn't even have to see the yukes logo to know its them. The hair physics lets you know its them. Idc about that tho, just give me something like no mercy and I'll be happy
