Ultra Pro Wrestling is literally the best game out of this bunch and was what AEW Fight Forever was supposed to be. The game looks incredible as if it was made by the guys who made No Mercy back in the day. Im buying this day one! I hope The Wrestling Code is great because that has a lot of potential
@@2Good2BeTrue45 I am also most excited for UPW. I do actually like AEW FF, but it was severely lacking in features, especially at release. UPW looks to be paced a tick slower that FF, but otherwise I can see them playing similarly-which is a good thing! No Mercy is my favorite game to this day, I can’t wait! The Wrestling Code hopefully drops more news soon.
@@MainEventMinute , well, to be fair, WCW Vs. The World was kind of lacking in features as well, and that was a Sony PS1 game, yet it was also the best wrestling game on that system besides Fire Pro Wrestling G, so it is unfair to criticize AEW: Fight Forever for that reason. Also, they could easily make updates to add new wrestlers, weapons, modes, theme songs, entrances, and such as well. I mean, if Castle Crashers, of all things, is getting an update literally 16 years after it was made, then I can hope for similar updates for AEW: Fight Forever as well.
@@NocturnalXSNothing is “ripped” - each and every animation was painstakingly redrawn by hand over thousands of hours to accurately match those classic titles. It was a slow but satisfying process! 🎉
Yup even opening video animations are the same. The taunts, the "staredown after collision". ALL has been ripped off from an N64 game called Virtual Pro Wrestling 2. It never came out in USA. The watered down version without half of the moves came out in USA as WWF No Mercy. ruclips.net/video/DbrR5VjEChU/видео.html
@@dmitrijbiryukoff7738what a dumb statement. WWF No Mercy is always superior than VPW2. Better AI, better storyline mode, better graphic, better weapon system, match type and backstage mode.
Excited for The Wrestling Code, but the lack of updates other than roster additions has me worried. It’s a smaller company and they signing a LOT of wrestlers. Worried they’ll either run out of money and have to shut down or all the money will go to the roster and nothing else.
I wonder what happened to the death match game that was loosely based off of CZW that was in development around the time of the wrestling code’s development? Also with Diamond Dallas Page in TWC, I wonder how many variations of the Diamond Cutter were going to get?
@@timothyholland2927 I think I remember seeing that game, forgot the name. I’ll have to look into it and get back to you. I always loved DDP’s cutter. I hope we get variations like a reverse cutter, or a super cutter off the top rope!
I don't know if it's possible, but I'd love to see a wrestling game where the idea was not to win the match, but to work with the opponent to get the right result with the most exciting match possible. You'd need to have controls to sell moves for example and a way to switch between the heel heat and the comeback, or selling for a hot tag... Everything wrestling game is just a beat-em-up in wrestling clothes, I'd love to see something try to deal with what pro-wrestling really is
@@neilbiggs1353 yes! That’d be spectacular! Fire Pro Wrestling World is the only game I’ve played that comes close to caring about the match. In the career mode, you’re instructed on how to take bumps to build the match’s rating. It’s a pretty good game, I recommend it if you haven’t tried it yet. 2D graphics though if that turns you off
Well two are in Early Access mode already, one has been silent since April, and one has given Q4 2024 as the targeted release date and seems to be sticking to that. It’s a crazy time for wrestling games, I love it.
Im curious to know if ultra pro bought/acquired the animations from no mercy. A few moves in the video were exactly the same as the No Mercy game. It would be a nice nod to the past if they did 🤘 thanks for the video, my very best to you
@@EvaluateAssimilate in a FAQ the devs specifically stated that they want Ultra Pro to feature every single move from the AKI games, including No Mercy. It’s exciting to hear about, I just hope it can deliver! Appreciate the kind words, and thank you for watching my friend!
@@MainEventMinute well that's great news, and thank you for providing that info. I hope they deliver as well and keep all digits crossed for their success. Looking like it'll be a blast to play, all things considered. I appreciate the reply, man. Cheers 🤘
@@paxhumana2015 Bastante Bueno Lucha Libre is going through their own site for now while in beta, I have a link in the video description if you’re interested. I’m not sure when Wrestling Code will be listed.
@@MajorChipHazard316 I wouldn’t go that far, not yet at least. This seems like one of those games that just builds on the hype just to toss away in the end. Like there’s no reason at all for us to still be waiting to see valid gameplay
@@MainEventMinute thanks, haven't posted any video footage yet. Mainly been working on setting the system and gameloop up. Seeing UPW being developed was my motivation! They're gonna have a great game!
Hey dude, if you need any one to help with logos / character ideas etc, id LOVE to help out, i d love to be involved in something like this but i dont have any programming skills. but im a 30+year wrestling and wrestling games fan, i design logos and character's. id love to help if i can
@@jrovc WCW World Tour? That was a pretty good game for its time, but I agree that Ultra Pro would feel empty if it’s missing features like weapons or backstage.
I still have high hopes for The Wrestling Code even if we can't play it until we're all old heads 🤣🤣🤣. A few of my friends are in the game and I'm stoked to play as them.... Eventually. UPW looks like it could be something really special. That trailer they released looked awesome!
@@wrestlingalldaypodcast123 hey, we waited over a decade for GTA VI, surely the Wrestling Code won’t take that long….right? Lol UPW is exciting too for sure. Thanks for watching!
I'm a little bit concerned that every animation in Ultra Pro wrestling looks like it was literally lifted straight out of the N64 WWE games. I hope that's not the case and they're just doing that for now until they can make all their own animations.
All the AKI animations + brand new ones will be included. There’s a DLC roster of over 70+ wrestlers - most of which have moves that have never appeared on those classic N64 games 🎉
I would rather ultra pro, and wrestling code take at least another year in development. They both look like they need work. Especially the Wrestling Code. That in ring stuff looked bad.
The problem with wrestling games is that the majority of the consumers are a bunch of ignorant, entitled & disgruntled WWE 2K fan's that think other wrestling games are supposed to copy their format, modes and match types,story mode etc & they simply can't accept a game for what it is and then you have the fanboy RUclips channels that do nothing but Bash any and everything that isn't WWE & literally tell all of the sheep out there to not buy whatever game it is because they think that they have the answers for everyone & everything 😉...Instead of just playing games and having fun people would rather sulk like a bunch of spoiled big mouth brats and talk a bunch of toxic negative, nonsensical garbage 🗑...On another note great videos 📹...👍🏾
You’re not wrong, it can get pretty toxic online. I’m just glad we have so many different wrestling games now, there’s something for everyone. I like AEW Fighr Forever’s gameplay, I like WWE 2K’s creation suite, I like the silliness of Wrestling Empire. If you don’t like one game, just move on to the next. Thanks for watching and for the comment! Appreciate it my friend!
Or it's the people who think hating on 2k is cool and edgy I always see you guys trying to start arguments with people because they like 2k and not whatever indy game that was made by a problematic person
the ragdoll in casual pro wrestling is really bad. there's nothing fun about seeing ugly animations that look really unnatural. maybe if it were gta level of physics it'd be fun.
@@MainEventMinute but if you want lucha libre there only 3 well 1 actually aaa lucha libre heroes del ring. The other 2 more of an adventure game then wrestling but it the game called guacamelee it even has sequel
WWE has literally nothing to do with this. Now if you had said TV style presentation, or officially named wrestlers/ arenas/ etc, then you may have been on to something.
I already have Fire Pro Wrestling Returns on PS2, Fire Pro Wrestling World on PS4 and physical copies of both Virtual Pro Wrestling 2 and WWF No Mercy...these games cannot hold up to those.
@@Gotchism4Life I doubt they will live up to those games, but they don’t necessarily have to for me to enjoy them personally. As long as they’re fun and feel different from what we have now, I’ll be happy.
How in the blue hell did they get wwe to sign off on legends likenesses for wrestling code inwould have thought they would have to a stop to it toot sweet a hit them with a cease and desist immediately no questions asked
All of these look trash, in my opinion. Between Wrestling Empire, and 2K24 - none of these have a real place in the ring, so to speak. Fight Gorever could've been decent, if it wasn't being published by a bunch of idiots that have no idea what they're doing. The core gameplay was great, the game just lacked content hard. I'm hoping we eventually see a sequel with all the complaints addressed and a single season pass, not 4 over a year.
All of them paying homage to MDickie I guess 😅
He’s the Godfather of these Indie wrestling games for a reason! Lol
He's goated he just needs to add more moves and move variations and his games would be untouchable 😊

The animations are ripped from AKI's games, which is probably why everyone gets that feeling. Cool product though
