WWE 2K Battle Grounds - First Impressions & Micro Transactions
My very first impressions of WWE 2K Battle Grounds. Checking out the modes, playing a few matches, looking at Create a Wrestler, and getting surprised by the unlockables and microtransactions.
WWE 2K Battlegrounds - First Impressions & Microtransactions

I hope you make Jankey Reptile
Thanks for the video I bought it as soon as I saw this review
You fool, you just signed a contract that if you have a kid who ends up being over 6'4" and 250 that Vince owns him to do jobs with a mummy style gimmick
How we can download this game
your awesome...this channel makes awesome videos this one was just fun!!
It's like a weird mobile version of All Stars
cool video m8!
I have beaten the game and have every trophy, and I can tell you that the microtransactions basically ruin the game progression. It takes way too long to get the battle bucks to unlock the rest of the roster, and some of the characters are full time performers today! On top of that, you have to pay more more for the costumes. The list goes on: You want more attire for your created character besides the bare minimum? Microstransactions. You want to design a ring that looks halfway creative? Microtransactions. You want to play online? You have to buy retry tokens and guess how you get those.....Microtransactions
I really wanted this game because it was so different from the stale annual games, but they dropped ball on this with the microtransaction BS. And they had the gall to release this on the very same day as Super Mario 3D All-Stars. WWE needs to end their deal with 2K and go with THQ Nordic.
Also, no need to spend money. You can unlock stuff pretty quickly just by playing campaign and battleground challenges with your created wrestler. Love your content. Keep up the excellent work, buddy.
There’s a bunch of combos and special grapple moves and special moves with the stick and the LT with the stick. Great, fun game.
I have to get this I want the QR code for the Cena cards in supercard
Thanks for the review. 👍 Love the vids.
Why does this surprise anyone? I think everyone who seen this game from announcement knew what it was. You were all warned away from buying it before, and yet we see some people still went and preordered the game. Blind love for an IP will lead you to giving up your money, just to make sure that its trash. Meanwhile, they already have your money, so you have told them that this type of product still sells. Nothing is going to change as long as people keep making excuses for buying the games. Dont care if its a ALfirstr, who does this for a job, or some random person who knows nothing about games, the writing was on the wall from the start.
Atleast you came out of a box that must mean you're instantly over!! Lol
Shame for the product first today’s product is down to the tube and now the games jump to shark.
I actually like the game... It's an arcade game, so my expectations were low. I love WWE All Stars for the PS3, and expected this to be similar. It wasn't, but I still like the game. Just don't expect too much.
This is everything that’s wrong with modern gaming. Well done for keeping your cool. As always, great video 🙂
So they got rid of 2k21 for this trash 😂😂 legit messed over all Wwe fans
I'll happily watch a longer video if you're the one making it. Overall the game seems alright but i still prefer something like 2k19
Thank goodness I kept 2K14 and All Stars.
this game is gross
Man i miss raw vs smackdown games
About what I expected from the game. Was hesitant to buy. You've confirmed what I assumed it would be; The WWE version of NBA Playgrounds, in all its grindy micro-transactiony glory. That being said, probably best to wait until it goes on sale. I imagine it will be a bit of fun, just not for full price.
You are the only one in the world who could make me watch this... I'm glad it's over. Thank you & i'm very sure now never to ever play this or buy it 😁. Looking Forward to your usual Programm
hey wrestling bios i read a headline on facebook bout Tessa Blanchard being a DLC character for Battlegrounds. if that's legit, u don't suppose she signed a contract to WWE?
glad to see yokozuna in this game
I have the same feeling about the game, it gives me anxiety seeing how much needs to be unlocked, I rallied it up to 407,000 points just for superstars, that’s not fun, I regret buying it now I’m stuck with it, I’m done with 2k forever
Well im definitely going to save my 40 bucks and not buy this garbage
Everybody bitchin about the micro transactions when all they have to do is play the fuckin game. Once you finish the campaign, start the battle challenges and complete daily challenges . You’ll have more than enough money to unlock the wrestlers. This is a arcade game. There’s no gm mode or universe mode to keep you playing. So the unlocks give the game replay value because there’s always something to work towards
This game look like absolute trash. I love arcade style games but this art style is horrible to look at, the grind to unlock characters is infuriating, and I’m so glad I did not preorder this game.
Know take forever with how I play but if can unlock through campaign thats good. Know not buying anything thats for sure. Thats my biggest gripe. Used to doing so much unlocking in likes of Smash Bros.
So each character is 600 gold coins. 500 coins is 3.99 (not enough to get one character...) and 1100 coins (again, not enough for two characters) is 7.99! Screw any interest I had in the game!!!!
Conveniently priced in order to encourage more microtransaction purchases.
Mobile gaming practices have ruined console games. Once they all saw how much they could make off micro transactions they never looked back
I like this but it's not gonna replace any wrestling games I enjoy, it'll just be another fun thing to play. It's not as deep but I have fire pro for that
Ok just for the title screen picture, why does stone colds fist have electricity? Shouldn’t that be on the most electrifying man in sports entertainment?
yeah good video but its no fun playing on easy why not set it to hard
It's WWE... You basically have to expect a scam at this point. How can people still support this company in 2020?!
WWE doesn't have anything to do with the microtransactions in the game that is 2K.
Ok I was very interested in this game, but I was waiting to see what the consensus was after last years mess up. But after seeing this video it's a straight no from me. I hope 2k loses the license soon.
After the unmitigated disaster that was WWE 2K20, the least they could have done was give us a complete game that doesnt try to rob us blind at every turn.
It's insanity but we have come to accept it as normal. It used to be you pay $60 for a game and you get the whole game. Now they have the gall to actually keep charging you $2 or so for every character you want. I'm all for making money but it's such a blatant ripoff.
Yh very disappointed.
I had All Stars
I dont mean to be mean so I won't
Micro transactions ruined gaming
Remember the good old days- alfirst.info/load/pmhnip6ag8Z5fYU/video
Can you do a review of WWE Crush Hour for the ps2? I really liked that game for some reason lol
I'm going to be honest: this doesn't feel very genunie. You can't go "so there been complaints about CAW slots" and then suddenly go silent as soon as you see the first locked caw slot. It just gives off the air of "I actually know whats up, I'm just acting shock for ALfirst". And I'll say this just because as you said, you aren't used to non scripted stuff. But it just doesn't feel like a 'first look', more like a 'Let's react because it'll be easy to get views right now because of complaints."
Idk dog this feels pretty genuine to me. He seems to be taking natural. He was probably generally shocked and he also said in an earlier comment that he had to stop him self from ranting. Maybe were just hearing this differently but I don't here anything that sounds non-genuine.
Hearing you cuss was funny! You make the best videos man
Thanks for the review good brother. I was on the fence about getting this game, this video made up my mind! Lol in game purchases..damn. No thanks.
get retromania wrestling instead
So we have pirates making games, pirates pirating games.... Developers like this deserve to be ripped off. Hope it flops harder than a 90 year old peepee.
I’ve never heard someone having so little fun while trying to have fun 😂 I feel for u big guy
He sounds so bored with this game 😅
Haha, yeah.
Today I got to hear the Wrestling Bio’s guy get heated.
I don't think I've heard you curse before!
Utterly disappointing
I’m glad I canceled my pre order now it’s crazy that over half of the roster is locked behind a paywall and the fact that they’re charging us for caw slots is just greedy 2k better dial back the micro transactions for 2k21 or I won’t buy it like I didn’t buy this or 2k20
It’s good that Ricochet is in here, at least he’ll get SOME ring time this year
LMAOOO 😂😂😂😂😂. This made me laugh way too hard
create a wrestler 1 thing i love doing.
Oh ffs. I'm so glad I skipped this earlier. What bollocks. Why is every game now a big chore? So disappointed.
Bet if you buy hhh he automatically wins every title in the game
2k means loads of micro transactions. so i'll give it a miss
Love the real reactions your giving.. And calling BS when necessary.
Yeah I won't be getting this game!
I wont buy the game, but would happily watch some lets plays from yourself!
You’ve likely heard about this by now, but Battlegrounds may have already landed itself in some legal hot water. In a loading screen before women’s Rumble matches, one of the comic panel graphics is obviously just a traced-over photo of Tessa Blanchard. Evidently Impact owns the rights to the original (it was taken by one of their in-house photographers), so it remains to be seen whether they’ll actually do anything about it since she’s not with the company anymore.
Don't be surprised if Tessa files legal action against 2K. I think she has a case.
*_I have no objection whatsoever to business practices that explicitly target stupid people._*
Cool game
I was excited but I don't play microtransaction games guess I'm still playing wrestlemania 2000
I like the game
😒😒😒 and this is why everyone still plays skyrim and gta5
Glad I didn't get this ... I wanted more WWF No Mercy orvat least ALL-STARS but we got none of it
It looks terrible. How hard is it to make a decent, realistic wrestling sim
it wouldnt be a 2k game if it wasnt knee deep in making you pay for stuff.
Buy a game & then be forced to pay more for the other 80% of the content? No thanks.
The amount of in-game purchases required is absolutely disgraceful
When they asked Paul E what he wanted, he should've said "Head"
All those microtransactions are totally gross. I'm going to feel zero guilt pirating a cracked PC version of this one.
Now THIS is a pleasant surprise lol. A Wrestling Bios video to kick off the last weekend of summer. And seeing as how there will be one on Sunday, a great way to end things off as well :) I've been wondering about this game too seeing as how the 2K series seem to look all in the same to me. Thanks for sharing your first impressions.
I am a huge SUPPORTER of your channel.... I am only going to SUGGEST you one thing, stick to everything OLD SCHOOL WRESTLING .... DON'T DO ANYTHING MODERN!!
Why not? Lol. Eventually he’ll have to
31:53 wtf is with the hands in this game...those are the spiders from Aliens...
I'm happy to know that you're an XBOX guy! 👌🏼
awesome thanks for the review man.
I guess I'll stick with HCTP, SVR 07, and 2K14. I wasn't really impressed by this when they announced it.
Would love to play hctp again
Well I guess we'll be waiting for the AEW video game
I don't mind microtransactions unless it's for content you can't unlock through grinding. The game definitely isn't for me though, characters are way too cartoonish.
It doesn't quite seem like the All Stars 2 game i expected and very microtransaction heavy. But the story mode looks interesting enough that i might eventually rent this.
I loved the unscripted video man! Your swearing made it godly!
@Ousman Sano Why not both?
uncensored*
I had said last night after watching new Legacy's video about it and I was like I might buy it on sale and seeing all the micro transactions has made my decision. Thanks for the video dude, provided an honest look at the game which is exactly what I expected from you anyway. Did Resident Evil Merchant Barry Didinsky have this under his coat for sale?
I Was on the fence about shoud I get this or not and wow am not in a rush to pick this up if I get it at all so many of my favorites are behind the paywall I'm good I'll just keep playing the classics thanks Wrestling Bios.
Stephanie over Asuka on roster... the disrespect 😂
wrestling bios can you review wwe smackdown vs raw 2006 ps2
He seems so out of his element!!!
This is ass
thanks for this. almost purchased it. pay for slots and current roster wrestlers? What?!
My only complaint is Kane isn't in this game, yet. Really bummed but at least I have Undertaker.
For fucks sake. I was actually excited for this game.. no more. 🤦♂️
I wont be purchasing this after seeing micro transactions
I was gonna buy it glad I didn't
You are the only reason why I keep wrestling ticking over. Other then what you upload I can't be bothered. Thank you.
