WWE Soul Wrestler

"Welcome to the world of Sports Entertainment... This time the universe is now OUT OF CONTROL!!!"

-Vince McMahon

"OH MY GOD! The whole world going insane and out of control! World Wrestling Entertainment will never be always the same..."

-Jerry "The King" Lawler

"Prepare to SmackDown! your favorite characters onto the ring!"

-The game's tagline. WWE Soul Wrestler is a Pro-wrestling arcade crossover game developed by Yuke's, in collaboration with B.B. Studio, Square Enix, Syn Sophia and Hawke Gaming Industries, and published by Bandai Namco's Sports division, released worldwide on April 3, 2020 for the PlayStation 4, Xbox One and Microsoft Windows. The game serves as the professional wrestling counterpart to Project X Zone and other crossovers, featuring characters from various popular video game, television, western animation, anime and manga franchises possesed by the souls of the World Wrestling Entertainment personnel hence the title Soul Wrestler.

Production
In E3 2019, a teaser trailer for the new game rendered on the WWE 2K19 engine and publicly displayed, which showcases Marian Hawke, Aya Brea, Rinoa Heartilly, Siegfried Schtauffen, Sophitia Alexandra, Kirito and Ryuko Matoi (all possesed by the souls of The Rock, Triple H, Stone Cold Steve Austin, Kurt Angle, The Undertaker, Roman Reigns and Brock Lesnar respectively), all prepared to wrestle with Jerry "The King" Lawler says "OH MY GOD! The whole world going insane and out of control! World Wrestling Entertainment will never be always the same...". The teaser ends with all the aforementioned characters charging each other, followed by a text that reads: "July 28, 2020: A great war has begun… WWE SOUL WRESTLER" and Across The Nation by The Union Underground from the 2002-2006 version of WWE RAW plays in the background.

The trailer sparked hype and excitement for millions of anime, and Pro Wrestling fans and gaming community members worldwide, with Bandai Namco and WWE handling promotion and wrestling matches on various cities across North America, United Kingdom, Japan, France, Germany and South Korea, and on social media sites such as Twitter, Facebook and YouTube, where updates and reveals are posted. This was helped when a game before WWE: Day of Reckoning 3 was succeeding with rising sales in which due to the Guest Wrestlers.

With the game slated for release on July 28 of the following year, Jason posted in his Twitter feed that it will be "the ultimate dream pro wrestling crossover that everybody wanted" and feature characters from various series in all kinds of Media with the gameplay style of No Mercy, classic SmackDown! games (most notably Shut Your Mouth and Here Comes The Pain, which are Jason Hawke's all-time favorites) and 2K series combined.

Gameplay
Unlike to the 2K series, Soul Wrestler departs the simulation style of WWE 2K games and returns to the classic fast-paced arcade-styled gameplay and very simplistic controls of the PlayStation era SmackDown! games notably like Shut Your Mouth and Here Comes The Pain and fluidity and a total freedom of customization of the AKI wrestling games like WWF No Mercy. Also returning are the pre-match minigames originated from SmackDown! Vs RAW. The In-Game HUD is also from SmackDown! Shut Your Mouth too, modified to fit in HD and more streamlined. Players are able to select a variety of characters from numerous media all possesed by the souls of past and present WWE wrestlers known as Soul Wrestlers. Players then choose a wide range of arenas to wrestle on This game also includes many new match types, championships and an updated soundtrack. Unrealistic gameplay elements such as Stealing Finishers and high heights from SmackDown! Shut Your Mouth mades a huge return here. The style, feel and theme of WWE Soul Wrestler's Universe is the mixture of the beloved Attitude Era and Ruthless Aggression era, departing the New Era and bringing back alot of the elements from the Attitude Era.

An all-new feature exclusive for Soul Wrestler is the Ultimate Finisher, which adds a new way of winning the match. The SmackDown! logo flashes black and causes the Soul Wrestler to glow in flames while performing the finisher, knocking out the opponent completely, much like the finishers in WWE All-Stars. This costs all five finisher slots to pull off, so you have to make it count.

It has six difficulty settings: Newbie, Amateur, Intermediate, Professional, Expert and Legend.

Control Scheme
* This only covers the control scheme of the PlayStation 4 version.

Edit a Soul
This section allows you to, as the name suggests, edit your roster. You can choose which wrestlers appear on your rosters by clicking on their name in order to view their Settings and their Relationships and by clicking on the brand logo underneath their name. Settings show off the wrestlers attributes, abilities, finishers, hit point ratio, crowd reaction and attires (if they have any alternative attires) and can be changed freely without microtransaction roadblocks.

Edit Teams
This section, again, as the name suggests, allows you to edit the teams on your roster. There should already be a few premade teams on your roster unless you have removed them all; you can also add more teams with the limit being seventy teams in total, more than enough to work with. The events of your shows from WWE Universe mode may also lead to teams being created or disbanded as their allies and enemies list changes and the events of your show unfold, this can lead to some extremely strange random pairings. Upon editing or creating a new team you can name your team, choose the announcement name that best describes your team, edit the members of the team, the limit per team being five and you can even edit your teams entrance and tag team move set.

Title Management
This section, simply put; you can choose who is champion. Leaving a title Vacant will make the title defunct and therefore won’t be used for your shows.

Statistics
The Statistics sections allows you to view the statistics of your very own gameplay. In the very first section, Ranking Statistics 1, you can view which soul wrestlers you have played with the most and how many times you have played as that respective wrestler.

In Ranking Statistics 2 you can go a little more into detail with the type of matches you have played with a list of yur top ten most played matches being on display and how often you have played each match type listed. You can also view your Career Highlights which highlight such things like; win ratio for title matches, most opponents defeated in Slobber Knocker, number of wins with all parts at critical, number of ring collapse knockouts, number of finisher reversals and number of Royal Rumble wins.

Finally, you can view your win/loss record via the Match Records And Statistics section. How many times you have won, lost and drawn are disaplyed and the various methods in which you won or lost those matches with such as pinfall, submission, K.O., DQ, count out and other method (referring to matches with specific win conditions, such as climbing over the steel cage). To the right side you can also view how many times you have used a specific ability and you can also view how many times you have caused destruction with a table, a ladder and a chair.

Quick Match
Quick Match mode allows players to start a single match against a random opponent, without the need for setting up rules or choosing the opponent.

Main Article: WWE Soul Wrestler/GM Mode

WWE Soul Wrestler Universe
In the WWE Soul Wrestler Universe mode you have complete control over the show, you can book matches, determine who is on which brand, you can create your own tag teams between existing soul wrestler, you can create feuds between your favourite and least favourite soul wrestler, you can control the world within your fingertips.

Play Matches
This section is where you can book your matches, put titles on the line and create your own storylines. The Play Matches section will come with a random, pre-existing card and it is up to you to change it how you wish. You can book any match with any Soul Wrestler you have unlocked, including your own created wrestlers.

You can choose to Simulate the matches so the winners of the match are determined for you or you can Play the match in order to test your might against the other members of the roster and even edit the stipulations of the match booked with the ‘Match Rules' option and the Match Pace option in order to make the match ‘Normal', ‘Quick' or ‘Epic' which will determine how the match is laid out.

It is within the confines of this section that you can achieve the majority of the WWE Soul Wrestler Universe mode unlockables and trophies that need to be achieved.

Calendar
Clicking on Calendar will open up the calendar for the WWE year. It will show which shows are booked and on what days and you can choose to customize the calendar in order to change the day or date of events. If you can't be bothered simulating through all of the booked shows or want to do a certain event straight away, simply click on the event you want to simulate to and allow for the calendar to be simulated all the way up to that certain point.

Rivalries
This section, as the name suggests, allows you to set up specific rivalries for your shows. You can choose to view the current rivalries which will take you to a list of rivalries on your current brands and will also allow you to delete and create rivalries. By selecting to create a rivalry you can choose the type (one on one or two on two) and the duration of the rivalry (short rivalry; four weeks, medium rivalry; eight weeks, or long rivalry; twelve weeks) and, naturally, you can choose who is involved in the rivalry.

You can also choose to play a current rivalry, this option will take you straight to the first Rivalry Match booked on your calendar, whether it is the top rivalry on a specific brand or not. On top of all of thise, you can also view the rivalries that happened in the past and who happened to win a specific rivalry, some interesting rivalries are randomly created.

WWE.com
In this section you will find the news that comes as a result of the past week's shows, events such as a new champion being crowned can be found in the WWE.com section. If you click on Latest News you can open up to a new section which provides you with even more news regarding what is going on with your brands and your shows.

In this section you can also view the current rankings in the WWE. By clicking on the current rankings you can view the current rankings for each championship currently in contention for each current brand and see how the superstars on your roster are faring against the other superstars of the roster. Each wrestler will be placed into title contention for the particular title they are most suited for on your roster and superstars can be added or removed depending on how well they perform on the shows throughout a weekly basis.

You can Edit the ranks how you wish so the wrestler you want on top is on top, however they still need to do well on a weekly basis to maintain the number one contenders position, otherwise you are going to have to Edit the ranks constantly to keep them at the top. This is a good way to make sure certain wrestlers win specific championships.

There is also a Stats section in the WWE.com section which allows you to look at the statistics of your championships, like how many times the current champion has held the championship and how long they have held the championship for currently. Clicking into a specific championship belt will allow you to view the rankings of the championship belt and find out the amount of times a specific superstar has held the belt and how many weeks they have held the belt for.

On top of all of that, you can even add your own ‘Major' or ‘Minor' created events to the calendar, ‘Major' events allow for a much grander roster with more championships to contest for and greater storylines to be created and ‘Minor' events allow for a smaller roster, no championships can be exclusive to this event but they can be defended on the actual show when you create the match card, it is, as the name suggests, simply a minor show.

The mode also features a morality system to allow players to decide whether they want to play as a face (fan favorite) or a heel (rule breaker) with each choice having an effect on the meter. There is also a 1-5 star match rating system that rates matches based on technique, pacing and momentum, with squash matches getting lower ratings and back-and-forth matches getting higher ratings.
