❤ Gameplay Mechanics

The game features a unique, timing-based wrestling system that differentiates it from modern button-mashing wrestling games. Players must precisely execute grappling moves and counters through proper timing, gradually wearing down opponents by starting with basic strikes and grapples before transitioning into more powerful maneuvers. Mistiming attacks often results in the opponent successfully countering, adding a high skill ceiling.

❤ Strike Exchange System

One key mechanic is the Strike Exchange system, where players can chain together quick strike attacks to gain an advantage. By timing strikes correctly, players can interrupt opponent moves and set up devastating strike combinations. Mastering this intricate system allows for thrilling, back-and-forth brawls between skilled players.

❤ CPU Logic and Match Presentation

The game features an advanced CPU logic system that gives computer-controlled wrestlers convincing, personality-driven behaviors. Wrestlers can play to the crowd, use underhanded tactics, or adapt strategies based on the match situation - all without player input. Combined with the robust match presentation, this results in CPU vs CPU matches that are highly engaging to watch, allowing players to set up tournaments, leagues, and other fantasy booking scenarios.

❤ Customization and Movesets

One of the series' defining features is its unparalleled character and movesets customization. Players can create original wrestlers from the ground up, choosing from thousands of possible body parts, facial features, and moves. Additionally, the Steam Workshop allows downloading a virtually limitless number of community-created content, enabling players to recreate historical matchups and fantasy dream fights, further enhancing replayability.
