Part of the creation suite's charm should be crafting amazing digital recreations of your favourite independent wrestling shows. Not every event takes place in a grandiose arena in front of 20,000 people, after all. This year, 2K have added a bunch of new arena templates in Create-An-Arena, and it looks superb.

Fancy creating your own personal tribute to the Hammerstein Ballroom? Go right ahead. Want to see what it'd be like to wrestle as Randy Orton in a tiny building in front of a few hundred fans? Knock yourself out. Smaller arena types are now included in the suite, and it's about damn time. We were getting bored of that 'house show arena' in 2K17.

Seeing greater variations in the arena types is exciting, because it opens up more possibilities for those wizards who work wonders in the Community Creations. Hopefully, 2K18 even lets you plant your ring in the middle of a tiny convention centre or night club setting too.
