7 Things You Need To Know About Virtual Basement’s Mystery Wrestling Video Game

7. Virtual Basement Want To Challenge 2K

WWE 2K20 was 2K's version of The Shockmaster. It was a flub so mighty that it might've shattered everyone's confidence in them for good, and they'll have to think long and hard about how they can save a dying franchise. After that dung-heap of a product, there are few guarantees.

Virtual Basement smell blood.

The New England-based development team, known for titles like Ark: Survival Evolved and Broomstick League, may have looked at 2K's utter embarrassment and thought, 'Hey, we have an opportunity here'. It's true, they do; 2K20 was so bad that it might've opened the door for other dev-teams to snag some of that lucrative wrestling game market share for themselves.

This project is VB's big pitch to wrestling gamers everywhere. Why wouldn't they want to challenge 2K when the WWE licensee and Visual Concepts made such a colossal mess of their latest release? Someone has to pick up the pieces.
