WWE: Immortals - New fighting with the soldiers of the World Federation of wrestling
Makradar Games / / December 19, 2019
I'm sure many of you are familiar with the popular American show like Wrestling. Our with you blue screens it fell in the early 2000s, along with the popular presenter and commentator Nikolai Fomenko. It is thanks to its non-standard approach to the show commented, many sat up late watching TV. After that, from time to time in different Russian channels and then run the broadcast, but apparently due to low ratings shot them with etheric grid. But many fans of the show are still experiencing warm feelings when they hear the WWF or WCW title.
Unfortunately many, recall those times may not all. The show can be viewed only from the records of American channels available on torrent trackers and popular games come out only on consoles. But if you still watch the World Wrestling Entertainment events (for example, a separate paid channel on your Apple TV) and you know the whole roster of new fighters, you will certainly pay attention to the game based on that recently appeared in the App Store.
WWE Immortals - a fighting game from the notorious NetherRealm, the creators of the new Mortal Kombat and Injustice, using basic mechanics of games studio. The new game is very much like Injustice: Gods Among Us. The same cards with the characters and battle three on three, special moves and colorful effects. Only instead of superhero comics in the arena fighting soldiers from the World Wrestling Federation. However, even in this game, all the fighters look like the notorious superheroes of the same comic.
The biggest complaint about the Immortals - is that the game is not a simulator sports show. It's all the same Injustice, just with a different sauce. Pumping their soldiers, we buy new reinforcement will improve the techniques and learn new super-blows. But all the action takes place on the fictional arenas, with fictional fantasy and throws punches, not having a "normal" wrestling almost nothing in common.
Since the announcement was not more than a couple of months, and it seems that these sixty days, and were all the development. Any interesting opportunities and new ideas - the whole game rolling on the already well-trodden track. Fans show clearly not expecting this. Where's the ring? Where a judge? Where the audience and a big stadium? Where tables, chairs and other items that you can beat your opponent? From all this there were only men names, fight in the arena.
It turns out that the WWE Immortals hard to recommend someone. On the one hand - familiar to men (albeit looking quite strange) and a bit like finishing on the other - a complete lack of wrestling show itself. Those who are the names of anything do not say, might be worth a try if you are already tired of superhero showdown. Fans just might like it too, if you ignore the WWE Universe. An amateur. And very sorry. Perhaps, TNA will not spare money to develop, and soon we will see a full, interesting and above all - like a simulator gameplay in the new project of some talented studio.
