An amazing WWE 2K22 match sees Spider-Man and the Green Goblin face off in a brutal grudge match following Spider-Man: No Way Home. The professional wrestling simulator allows gamers to create their own superstar and compete for the belt. The game’s in-depth character creator lets players create amusing personal matches, with one player recently creating Pete Davidson and Kanye West in WWE 2K22 to let the celebrities settle their differences in the ring.
As a follow-up to 2019’s WWE 2K20, the newest entry in the wrestling series seeks to breathe new life into the franchise’s core mechanics. WWE 2K22 boasts a new combat system, allowing players to pull off complex combos by stringing together strikes, grapples and other moves. WWE 2K22’s 2K Showcase mode focuses on cover star Rey Mysterio, allowing fans to live out the wrestling legend’s greatest bouts. The MyFACTION mode, meanwhile, lets players collect and manage various WWE wrestlers. Finally, the MyRISE mode lets players create their own unique superstars and build relationships, with character creation allowing players to bring characters like Red Dead Redemption 2’s Arthur Morgan into WWE 2K22.
A spectacular use of character creation has allowed Twitter user Burst to recreate Spider-Man: No Way Home’s Green Goblin and Spider-Man within WWE 2K22. Willem Dafoe’s dastardly supervillain battles the wall-crawling hero twice in the film, and both battles feature a fair share of intense wrestling moves. This allows the brutal beatdowns to translate perfectly into WWE 2K22’s combat system, and expert use of character creation authentically recreates the costumes of both Marvel icons. The Green Goblin notably chokes Spider-Man and prepares for a ruthless power bomb, two moves that the villain actually uses in No Way Home.
While Burst has introduced Spider-Man and the Green Goblin into WWE 2K22, developer Visual Concepts is preparing to officially expand the game’s roster. WWE 2K22 DLC will add a lineup of celebrity fighters to the game, including Logan Paul, Machine Gun Kelly and Mr. T. These notable additions to the roster, set to release throughout 2022, will add their own distinct flair to the wrestling simulator experience. However, none of them would be able to last long in the ring against Green Goblin or Marvel’s beloved wall-crawling hero.
Spider-Man has a history of big-screen cage matches, and Spider-Man: No Way Home added a clear wrestling flair to the brawls between the superhero and the Green Goblin. This makes the two characters fit perfectly in WWE 2K22, as demonstrated by Burst’s amazing character creation feat. The Green Goblin may be an overwhelming foe in the ring, but Spider-Man always proves to be the superior grappler.
WWE 2K22 is available on PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S and PC.
