Every New Change of Control in the WWE 2K Battlegrounds

With the WWE 2K franchise currently on hiatus, WWE 2K Battlegrounds will be looking to fill the void in the wrestling-themed video game market. However, don't expect WWE 2K Battlegrounds to look like the WWE 2K series, as this game is an arcade-style experience that allows players to use striking combos, power-ups, and other new features. Due to this new concept, you can expect the control setup to be different as well. How bad you might be wondering? Let's take a closer look.



Striking

Every New Change of Control in the WWE 2K BattlegroundsTake a closer look at the WWE 2K Battlegrounds controls on Xbox One.

Hitting in WWE 2K Battlegrounds is easier than in the WWE 2K franchise. Now, it's important to note that hitting in WWE 2K20 wasn't that complicated initially. It was enough to use a combination of buttons and sticks (X / square + left stick). However, hitting in WWE 2K Battlegrounds takes the simplicity to the next level.

To hit your opponent all you need to do is hit X / Square (for Xbox and PlayStation users). To start the opposition, press Y / Triangle. To attack the opposing wrestler while down, press X / Square. While you don't necessarily need to use a stick to connect to a strike, keep in mind that the opponent needs to be within striking range for you to be successful with a kick or punch. .

In addition to punches and kicks, you can also launch your opponent in WWE 2K Battlegrounds. Hit A / X to throw, and use B / Square to throw the opposing wrestler away. Special throws can also be done by using the right stick and moving it in a certain direction, or by combining LT / L2 + right stick. Check your wrestler's class to see what throws are available.



Combos et power-ups

Thanks to the new arcade-style game model that Take-Two and Saber Interactive used for WWE 2K Battlegrounds, wrestlers can now use insane combos and power-ups to light up the opposition. To use a combo, you will need to press a series of buttons and log in three times in a row to successfully execute one. You'll also need to keep in mind that combos vary by class. Each wrestler belongs to a class, so make sure you know which wrestler your wrestler belongs to before using a combo.

Defense

In terms of defense, not much has really changed. Controls in use still use a trigger button, but it has been remapped a bit. You will need to hit RT / R2 to race in WWE 2K Battlegrounds, as opposed to LT / L2 in WWE 2K20. To block the opposing wrestler's strikes, press and hold RB / R1. You can also parry, which can be done by pressing RB / R1.

Counters can also be an effective tactic to stop an opponent's momentum. To counter a throw, you will need to press one of the four buttons that will randomly appear on the screen to reverse the movement.

Signatures and finishers

The controls for hitting the signature and finishing moves have also been remapped for WWE 2K Battlegrounds. To use any of these moves, you'll need to press LT / L2 + RT / R2 in order to complete one. Keep in mind that your heat bar will need to be completely full to attempt a signing or finisher.


Falls and submissions

Aiming for a fallen in the battlefields of WWE 2K has actually remained the same. Just like in WWE 2K20, you'll need to press B / Square near an opponent on the ground to attempt a pin. The submissions, on the other hand, have been changed slightly.

To make a submission, press and hold A / X to lock one. Once you've done that, you'll see a health bar with two trigger buttons (LT and RT for Xbox, L2 and R2 for PlayStation). Press the trigger buttons to fill the counter, as once you do, the opponent will submit. Keep in mind that you will need to deplete your opponent's health to be successful with a Submission. If the opposing wrestler has high health, it will be easier to break the hold.
