*WWE 2K24 is finally out worldwide! For those that are playing, what do you think of it so far?*

[@ShowOffProductions56]

YEET

[@DarlinaLTesh]

Still annoyed that custom superstars do not get the multiple ring announcers... I really hope this gets patched.

[@JoshuaSmith-mc9vh]

I'm surprised you haven't mentioned the five finisher/signature slots yet or that you can now have three running corner attacks assigned

[@AidanAustin316]

There's special rivalry commentary for Bruno Vs Roman Reigns

[@SSJ491]

It's good, but the 40 year of WrestleMania showcase mode was bad.

[@tbolt720]

Love how the rock comes with elbow pads even as a ref just in case people's elbows need to happen lol

[@firstnamelastnamesb]

6:02 to around 6:11 This line from Graves is actually directly lifted from The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time. It's said by the character Sheik when teaching the player the song "Minuet of Forest" outside the entrance to the Forest Temple dungeon.

[@linionnews]

And knowing that Cody is a huge OOT fan, the amount of depth in this commentary is insane bro

[@SENPAPITOM]

I knew I wasn't crazy, such a sick easter egg

[@dw3st2]

dam, the commentary has gotten significantly better

[@STRIKER214]

Did you know Triple H's Theme "King Of Kings" is in the game? This is a two in one because that theme is called (The Authority) and so are special titantrons for The Authority

[@kadharefinley224]

Happy that 2K updated Jey’s entrance 🔥. I haven’t done a tag team match with Chelsea and Piper, very cool to see that they have a tag entrance

[@money-lk7hv]

💎💎💎💎💎💎💎💎💎💎💎💎💎💎💎💎💎💎💎💎💎💎💎💎💎💎💎💎💎💎💎💎

[@dannydanggang1675]

Did you know Shawn Michaels also has special guest referee commentary? At the end of the match, they'll make a reference to DX

[@STRIKER214]

Did you know 2k added special crowd signs for bray Wyatt? If you scroll down on the WWE crowd signs you can see special crowd signs for bray like "Thank You Bray".

[@AngelCam7]

I love that Graves used that quote from Cody's return at WrestleMania 38 which was itself a reference to a Legend of Zelda quote.

[@LegocrazyYT1104]

Did you know the fiend has special audio when performing the “let them in 7” taunt its a little difficult to hear because it’s muffled from the mask

[@shawnmichaels568]

We need Pat McAfee's reaction during Jey's entrance lol.

[@Devondavis-fm2dz]

Most definitely

[@user-fp1vy6vy9w]

And Pat McAfee's reaction during Nakamura and Gunther's entrance too.

[@anthonysandoval43]

No what we need is booker t’s sing along for trick Williams

[@brianeichler6225]

​@anthonysandoval43 Yes that too lol

[@plentygocrazy8056]

That be so cool

[@maniaries472]

Did you know The Fiend has a brodie lee tribute taunt? You can hear him say Yea yea yea, even has a muffled effect so it sound like he’s screaming it under the mask

[@Triple-Four]

He did it in real life as the fiend so it's even more realistic.

[@shawnmichaels568]

So glad that we got multiple ring anouncers.

[@KrauzerUTH]

I've only been playing on RAW 😂

[@CWE4Life]

Did you know, despite him not winning a title since his return, Cody Rhodes has side plates that are new to the series featuring his American Nightmare logo, however these are not assigned to him by default

[@John-Stark]

...heh... HAHAHAHAHAHAHA! oh that's going to be a fun day on twitter

[@Omega5678]

He won the Undisputed Tag Titles

[@John-Stark]

@@Omega5678 That don't have side plates

[@Still_KC]

Did you know that they added in the Crowd chant for Roman from MITB, “If you hate Roman Stand Up” just do a Crowd/Opponent Chant with Roman and you’ll hear them.

[@haydenmarshall2010]

Right on time! Just got the game!

[@Smacktalks]

It's time to play the game! ⚒

[@chessrocker09]

There's a unique reversal for the casket match where if you are standing on the apron in front of the closed casket and the opponent runs at you then you reverse their attack into a ddt on the casket.

[@Simon-ev5sf]

Lita has referee commentary too, it references her Vengeance 2001 match

[@fluffyflufffox1385]

As Rey you now can rebound off the middle ropes after running onto the ropes.

[@firstnamelastnamesb]

Roxanne Perez as well!

[@fluffyflufffox1385]

@@firstnamelastnamesb awesome more new stuff to discover

[@AdamTheDude1985]

In the Japan areas the crowd will clap and are relatively quiet like actual Japanese crowds.

[@AdrianFerrari]

4:15 Something that had on old Smackdown vs. Raw games and they put as "new"

[@ericmonaco4509]

Its new cause WWE games transferred to Next Gen Consoles in 2014 and 2K decided to get rid of everything from the old gen and start from scratch

[@Triple-Four]

And the same company (Yukes) removed them from the games.

[@premsparrow8218]

This time I'm late 😔 Anyway thanks for keeping us up to date Smacktalks ❤ Lots of love from Chennai India 🧡🤍💚

[@matthewhamrick4304]

Did you know that you can get up on the turn uckle with your back facing your opponent again? Run to the corner while holding the right trigger or R2 to do it

[@GaryMc2K]

You can have an Elimination Chamber match in any arena (including customs) by using Universe Mode. Creating the match manually will put the chamber in the arena.

[@adityakrishnawestjava9201]

I like the duel match between cody rhodes and stardust with unique commentary, then a mineral water bottle as a weapon?!, the damage water bottle when hit the opponents was so light!

[@kazuhasgloves]

Let's gooo !! We up !! 🔥🔥🔥

[@ryankyle2467]

I like learning the things that may go under the radar! I definitely want to check out the ones you have made. I just also wish I could talk to anyone that could do anything or is apart of making this game/games!?? I have a good deal of ideas and how it could work! And some of them are gold!!!

[@astasredhood]

This one isn’t really important, but after you complete certain matches in the showcase, you can hear the ending of the matches playing out if you don’t go to the next match immediately. The Austin vs Rock and Rhea vs Charlotte matches are two of the them that do it.

[@RemRockVersion1]

Did you know that there is special commentary if you have a match between Cody Rhodes and Dusty Rhodes? The commentators will refer to the Peacock documentary of Cody Rhodes and his feelings of his father being a father figure to NXT.

[@markjones9058]

Did you know that if you wrestle in UK based arenas such as Clash at the Castle and Money in the Bank, the crowd will occasionally chant "welcome home" for Superstars from the UK and Ireland.

[@brandoniswhoiam]

Apparently, Mike Rome announces on RAW for everyone else… excluding Chelsea Green. I could be wrong about this. I’ll check when I get home from work.

[@rocky047586]

No, he doesn't. It's just random sometimes. But mostly it is Samantha on Raw.

[@rocky047586]

I have gotten him when I didn't want him though lol. So I can understand why you'd think he was on Raw normally. I think it's just glitched out or something but he's definitely not supposed to do Raw at all. Only Samantha.

[@glowshow]

Did you know: if you ignite a table, you can still hear the commentators mention Edge and Mick Foley’s wrestlemania match?

[@LymetimeProductions]

It would be cool for the cans and bottles to have a special drinking animation, small detail but would be kinda cool

[@oneetone6784]

Don’t know if you know this smacktalk but you can get a random occurrence when doing move sets where the move set guy can get busted open (with an indicated red flash on the screen)

[@flarewolf120X]

I had that happen to me multiple times before, It’s awesome!

[@FabledGamerYT]

Did you know there’s special commentary when playing as Cody Rhodes against Dusty Rhodes?

[@mikeyhughes766]

They need to fix Trick Williams entrance and have the fans chant Whoop that Trick. That would be awesome. They could add the other commentators and have the official ones for each show.

[@Imago900]

with 2k renaming his finisher that´s never gonna happen.

[@user-vq5gs8oy9h]

If you do the Glasgow sendoff while your opponent is near the corner you will get an animation where they bounce off of it

[@logankerr8090]

really wish we could choose tye ring announcer for Create a show(similar to how we can choose the refs)

[@marcushamilton6668]

Did you know there is special commentary between Shawn Michaels vs Randy Savage?

[@Dr1998Pepper]

I wish they would update Jey's entrance so the crowd is actually in time with him, its jarring to watch, especially with DBs entrave a few years ago and the crowd being in time with the Yes chant and movements

[@joetalkswrestling]

Did you know? In MSG arenas like WM20, you can crowd fight into the open area on the hard cam with the big screen. The game tries to keep you on the line but if you keep grappling upwards, you will move into it.

[@iamjohnlennon]

Did you know there is special commentary for Cody Rhodes and Dusty if they go one on one

[@quintariosmith990]

We need Trick Williams music fixed with the Whoop that trick in the background 🤦🏾‍♂️💯

[@miguelwrestling886]

Josh Briggs has an rebound Lariat !

[@CharmCityGamer]

Actually SmackTalks, Samantha has been announcing on PPVs for me, not just Raw.

[@rocky047586]

Yeah, she does Payback, Elimination Chamber, Extreme Rules, Clash At The Castle, and a few others.

[@Devondavis-fm2dz]

Awesome entrances

[@UnOfficalGamer]

That Cody vs stardust commentary makes me wonder if there’s commentary for Cody vs Cody matches and other same player matches

[@LukeCooksey]

This unique commentary for a Hulk Hogan versus Hollywood Hogan, and when you win

[@Jonathanainsley69]

Did you know that there is special commentary present for john cena as a special guest referee

[@MikeofEvil2]

There are a few creation entrances that are only in as templates, so you can't set the movement, tron, music etc from the individual menus. There's Carly Prime (although that has the Ms Texas motion), The Manifestation, and Zero.

[@eviltom17]

Other superstars who participated as a special ref in the past, like Trish Stratus, also have special commentary for special guest ref matches.

[@alphonesovann1312]

Kevin owens superplex reversal is finally in the game when countering certain suplexes

[@johnathonsantos3309]

Did you know Cory makes a Jon Moxley reference when the shattered dreams is hit

[@RickyDauphinais]

Did you know that Unlike previous years games, WCW Halloween Havoc 1997 now has its Slim Jim sponsorship in game including ring posts, ring mat and stage.

[@ryankyle2467]

2:12- That is kinda funny…. I did know it (but that’s because it’s been talked about every time anyone says anything about new features for this one)! My daughter likes it lol

[@JBxIx]

When using a CAW no matter what arena you are in the ring announcer defaults to Mike Rome!. Annoying!

[@lorenzotgc]

i hope trick gets his whoop that trick chant. With maybe even some booker t adlibs

[@thepluggy1]

Will you be doing videos on creator's fir the creation center?

[@Serukia]

Did you know, Katana Chance has a unique rope rebound.. or the same/similar rebound as Rey Mysterio

[@adamcolley1422]

If you play as Joe Coffey, if you hit his signature Glasgow send off 1 and the opponent is on the floor near any corner turnbuckle, he’ll send the opponent flying into the corner with a little animation oppose to just flying back

[@antisocialotis]

are we able to assign the shawn & diesel entrance to our CAWs?

[@gaipontiff2]

I've had a handful of matches on NXT and the ring announcer has not always been Alicia Taylor. I've had Greg Rome on more than one occasion.

[@TheBluePrintx.x]

Fr I think it’s a glitch and it’s getting awn ma nerves I don’t know if if dis game needing more working time

[@KuletXCore]

If you use ANY CAWs, Mike Rome will ALWAYS take over, regardless of arena EXCEPT if you put your CAW as a Referee in a Special Guest Referee match

[@gaipontiff2]

@KuletXCore ok, good to know. Thanks for the information.

[@TheBluePrintx.x]

@@KuletXCore caw ?

[@marcushamilton6668]

Did you know there is special commentary between Rhea Ripley vs Chyna?

[@deadpoolnerd]

Jesus Corey Graves commentary for Cody vs Stardust is eerily poetic.

[@lizuka8774]

Here's one I just noticed - they left Happy Corbin, Titus O'Neil, Queen Zelina, Doudrop, and Prototype in the preset hashtags, and also Jamie Noble is there for some reason.

[@jackplays001]

Just tested something, there is commentary if you put Cody Rhodes vs “Elite” Cody Rhodes in a 1 vs 1 Furthermore there is also commentary for Cody vs “Undashing” Cody

[@OfficialRyanFouracre]

Thanks for the shoutout, SmackTalks! 🙂👍

[@Smacktalks]

You're welcome buddy, thanks for the suggestion!

[@OfficialRyanFouracre]

​​@@SmacktalksAnytime, bro. 🙂

[@Specialeditionvideos]

​@@Smacktalks just got the game any tips?

[@marvingamez9057]

Maybe I missed but Did you know if you hit a running strike to an opponent near the turnbuckle, they’ll be pushed into the turnbuckle? Like the Balor drop kick

[@matthewhamrick4304]

Did you know that Whatsthestatus added managers as superstars in community creations and also unmasked versions of masked superstars like Kane, The Fiend, Rey Mysterio and others

[@CapySlappy]

There's unique commentary for Cody vs Dusty as well

[@jameslemm3282]

Did you know that Triple H's 'King of kings' theme is in the game under 'The Authority' in create an entrance

[@Jacy2244]

Did you know that there's a new animation for running and tagging someone in tag team matches?

[@zeroload1697]

You can climb the side of the wrestlemania 17 stage and the rock has a special taunt for the microphone

[@TheBadGuuy]

Did you know that there is unique commentary dialog when you have Stardust face Undashing Cody Rhodes? I'm sure any Cody vs Cody will get different commentary but "Cody has wanted to beat Stardust for awhile now" is a nice line.

[@ricardofelix5919]

Is there any way to download all those custom superstars that we see in the game ( like slade etc) We get there cards for my faction but they dont appear in the roster or see any option for it

[@EmteeHeadedProductions]

@Smacktalks Only just seen this, because the AI did it during showcase, and I don't know if it's new this year or not but, Did You Know that although the game does not show you the button prompts you can remove the turnbuckle pad when you're stood on the Apron

[@TerryTibbsTalkToMe2024]

2K missed a golden opportunity, not having Prime bottles in the game. Logan Paul.

[@RawCrepz]

I think ufc 5 has prime as a sponsor already so 2K probably couldn’t tbh, shame though

[@officialalexanderkelly]

It’s Irvin, not Irving. Sorry.

[@Epix8476]

It's The Alex Kelly, not the alex kelly. Sorry.

[@ThatGuy-en2nn]

Yeah yeah, Sam Erving.

[@gman2026]

I was so looking forward to having the 3 announcers but I only have Mike Rome doing all the announcements for raw smackdown nxt and ple's what am I doing wrong

[@AdamGrowells.they-them]

I noticed it with Roxanne Perez but I assume the same is true for Rey also. Did you know? When running the ropes they'll have a new animation where they bounce of the middle rope instead of the normal way. It's a nice touch.

[@brandogamesnl]

Ive never once had another announcer besides mike rome lmaoo no matter what arena, is it only for universe mode? Cause in exhibition matches i only ever had mike rome announcing

[@SimplyMAB]

Did you know in WWE designs there’s an image of the 123 Kid even though he’s not in the game? (I know we have Syxx and X-PAC but it’s interesting)

[@wrestlingcaws17]

Did you know you can now have managers ringside for extreme rules, ladder, table, tlc, iron man, falls count anywhere, submission, last man standing and no holds barred in 1v1 matches

[@ETG715]

Did you know that in WWE 2k24 if you look at the cutscenes for the 2K showcase the WrestleMania X7 cutscenes show and name drop Vince McMahon but when you look at the cutscene for the WrestleMania match between Charlotte flair Becky Lynch and Ronda Rousey Vince McMahons Face is censored out and is not named dropped

[@Brick3BC]

in the latest patch it seems they updated submissions its no longer a button smash

[@theshaggysogood1832]

We got to get booker T at NXT commentator Saying his catchphrase Wintrich Williams comes out

[@markjones9058]

I haven't downloaded the game yet as I'm on holiday ... but if there's special commentary for Cody Vs Stardust, I imagine that there is special commentary for Cody vs Dusty and Cody vs Undashing Cody.

[@LockRainmaker]

Did you know there is unique commentary for hitting Undertaker with a Superman Punch while playing as Roman Reigns

[@Jordy268]

7:02 Man.. I wish they would do something to make title belts actually fit the charachters. It's something that i've been hoping for for years and years xD

[@TheSurge]

Think they had it as separate as default cause they came out separately until they started coming out together and thus they have the entrance of them coming out together also.

[@NicholasNormand]

Slow install for me 20GB out of 72GB installed but sometimes errors out due to rain cause I’m on satellite internet

[@lukenowlin1355]

One thing I noticed is that if you put both Dusty and Cody Rhodes against each other, they will have special commentary.

[@TheNexan_]

It may be out of time, but it's leagues beyond Jey's 1.01 entrance

[@n0body550]

I’m pretty sure you can unlock some items from myfaction like tricks boxing gloves, seths big red boots etc. i believe they are called oddities Edit: tbh i cant see the red boots in character creation but tricks gloves are there so im sure there are oddities that are unlockable i just not sure which

[@edwinalvarado2887]

Can we still permanently set alternate attires? I can’t seem to find the option in the roster section like it was in 2k23

[@thelegendx-man6990]

Did you know that facepaint of custom wrestler aswell And did you know you can see one of dolph ziggler jackets in the my ride raw locker room

[@JobberGaming62]

Did you know there’s a hidden victory scene for Shawn Michaels if he beats the streak and the commentary will pick up on it

[@timothythomopoulos7924]

There’s also special ref commentary for Cena

[@matthewhamrick4304]

One more. Did you know that in showcase Lesnar vs Reigns when you're at the point you have to give him eight suplexes and a suplex city, if you do the suplex city before you get all of your eight suplexes done the game will count suplex city as three suplexes crediting toward the eight

[@bobbennett063]

Did you know that John Cena and Wade Barrett have WrestleMania commentary? Play a one in one match with them both and hear the commentsry team talk about their rivalry and Barretts potential WrestleMania revenge

[@shawnster2132]

2:52 Drink Shock Energy! Support my character Shock!
