WWE 2K18 Wishlist: 11 Things It Must Include

6. Eight Men In The Ring At Once

Back in the old days, the maximum number of wrestlers who could be featured on screen in a video game was four. That was fine for tag team matches, but when it came to battle royals, things felt less realistic. Even in the legendary No Mercy video game for Nintendo 64, the Royal Rumble feature - while fun - wasn't a true Royal Rumble.

In WWE 2K17, six wrestlers can be on screen at a time, and it makes a world of difference. Royal Rumbles feel a lot more like Royal Rumbles, and six-man tag matches and Money in the Bank matches are possible. All of that adds to the gameplay.

Still, if the game was able to get eight wrestlers on screen at once, that would be even better. Not only would the Royal Rumble be packed to the gills, but it would also allow for the simulation of Survivor Series-style bouts, which have been a staple in the company for nearly 30 years.
