'''''WWE 2K''''' is a series of [[professional wrestling]] [[video games]] currently developed by [[Visual Concepts]] and [[Yuke's]] and published by [[2K Sports]]. The games in the series are based on the [[professional wrestling promotion]] [[WWE]] and feature [[professional wrestling match types]], [[angle (professional wrestling)|storylines]], and playable characters based on [[WWE programs|WWE programming]].

The series was originally named '''''SmackDown!''''' after WWE's ''[[WWE SmackDown|SmackDown]]'' television program. The first release in the series was ''[[WWF SmackDown! (video game)|WWF SmackDown!]]'' in March 2000, which, along with subsequent titles, remained exclusive to [[Sony]]'s [[PlayStation]] consoles. After the [[WWE brand extension|brand extension]], the series was retitled '''''SmackDown vs. Raw''''' in 2004 to indicate the ''[[WWE Raw|Raw]]'' brand was also featured. Within a few years, the series had expanded to a yearly release cycle for various [[History of video game consoles (seventh generation)|seventh-generation consoles]] as well as [[Mobile game|mobile devices]]. Yuke's had also released the games in Japan under the name ''Exciting Pro Wrestling''. However, after ''[[WWE SmackDown! vs. Raw 2006|SmackDown! vs. Raw 2006]]'', [[THQ]] took over as the Japanese publisher and the Japanese releases adopted the western name.<ref name=Yukes2>{{cite web|url=http://www.yukes.co.jp/hp/game/?COM=list|accessdate=May 12, 2008|title=YUKE'S Future Media Creators games list|publisher=[[Yuke's]]|language=ja}}</ref> The series was later renamed simply '''''WWE''''' for its [[WWE '12|2012]] and [[WWE '13|2013 iterations]].

After THQ's [[THQ#Bankruptcy and liquidation|dissolution in January 2013]], it was reported that the publishing rights for the WWE video game series were acquired by [[Take-Two Interactive]].<ref name="Acquisition">{{cite web|url=http://www.ign.com/articles/2013/01/23/wwe-video-game-license-to-be-acquired-by-take-two| publisher=[[IGN]] | accessdate=January 26, 2013 | title=WWE Video Game License to be Acquired by Take-Two | date=January 23, 2013}}</ref> Take-Two confirmed the acquisition in February, saying that it would also retain the services of Yuke's and the THQ staff that worked on the ''WWE'' series.

Reception to the series' games has overall been favorable, and ''[[WWE SmackDown vs. Raw 2009]]'' was rated 31st and 28th ([[Xbox 360]] and [[PlayStation 3]], respectively) in [[IGN]]'s "Top 100 Games" list.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://games.ign.com/topgames/|title=Top 100 Games by IGN|publisher=[[IGN]]|accessdate=June 30, 2008}}</ref> It is among the [[List of best-selling video game franchises|best-selling video game franchises]], with 60 million copies shipped as of 2013.<ref name="sales">{{cite press release | url=http://investor.thq.com/phoenix.zhtml?c=96376&p=irol-newsArticle&ID=1123080&highlight= | publisher=[[THQ]] | accessdate=March 28, 2008 | title=The Number One Fighting Videogame Franchise Returns to the Virtual Ring with WWE(R) SmackDown(R) vs. Raw(=March 28, ) wwe 2k15 sucks))2008}}</ref>

==Gameplay==
The first game in the series, ''WWF SmackDown!'' had a clear cut system for moves such as combining an arrow key with the circle button for grappling moves and combining an arrow key with the X button for striking moves. Most of the later games, from ''WWF SmackDown! 2: Know Your Role'' to ''WWE SmackDown vs. Raw 2006'' used the aforementioned control scheme. When ''WWE SmackDown vs Raw 2007'' was released, new game mechanics were introduced, in which a new control scheme altered the grappling system of the game, called "Ultimate Control moves." Unlike the previous games, where the player pressed two buttons to perform a grapple or an attack, players were able to place their opponents into a grapple position and then choose to perform a move by moving the directional buttons of their system's controller. For example, the player could place their opponent in a [[suplex]] grappling position and then either perform a normal suplex or an [[Suplex#Inverted suplex slam|inverted suplex slam]].<ref>{{cite web|url=http://ps2.ign.com/articles/744/744193p1.html|title=''WWE SmackDown vs. Raw 2007'' Game Review|last=Dunham|first=Jeremey|publisher=[[IGN]]|accessdate=June 11, 2008|date=November 6, 2006}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.gamespot.com/xbox360/action/smackdownvsraw2007/review.html?om_act=convert&om_clk=tabs&tag=tabs;reviews|title=''WWE SmackDown vs. Raw 2007'' Online Review|last=Navarro|first=Alex|publisher=[[Game Spot]]|accessdate=June 11, 2008|date=November 6, 2006}}</ref> Before the release of ''WWE SmackDown vs. Raw 2008'', in order for players to force a superstar to [[professional wrestling#Submission|submit]], they had to tap buttons to move a marker towards the end of the meter labeled "Submit", and the only way for opponents to escape was for them to move the meter towards "Escape". Included with the release of ''WWE SmackDown vs. Raw 2008'' was a new submission system, in which the player had to move the [[analog stick]]s of their system's controller in different directions to force the opponent to submit, while the opponent could do the same to escape the [[professional wrestling holds|submission hold]].<ref>{{cite web|url=http://games.teamxbox.com/xbox-360/1692/WWE-SmackDown-vs-RAW-2008/|title=''WWE SmackDown vs. Raw 2008''|publisher=Team Xbox|accessdate=June 11, 2008|quote=A brand new Struggle Submission System will give players intuitive and natural control over their WWE Superstars by using the game's popular analog controls. Realism and strategy are at the forefront, as players will now control the amount of pressure they apply to their opponents.}}</ref>

Every game in the ''SmackDown vs. Raw'' series used to have the amount of damage inflicted to the player's chosen superstar, measured with a meter on the [[HUD (video gaming)|HUD]], where a design of a male figure presented the damage. As a move was performed against a superstar, the affected area of the body flashed—the more damage that is done to that specific body part, the more likely it is for the superstar to submit. Colors were used to represent the amount of damage done to a specific body area; yellow represented minimal damage, orange represented moderate damage, and red represented maximum damage.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://guides.teamxbox.com/xbox-360/839892/WWE-SmackDown-vs-RAW-2008/page_2.html|title=''WWE SmackDown vs. Raw 2008'' Guide|publisher=Team Xbox|accessdate=June 11, 2008}}</ref> This was however taken out of ''WWE SmackDown vs. Raw 2010''. Now the only way to tell how damaged the opponent is is to watch their physical body actions that indicate how hurt they are. The more damage inflicted to opponents, the more likely it is for them to lose the match. There are four ways to win a match in every game: by [[pin (professional wrestling)|pinfall]], submission, [[knockout]], [[Professional wrestling#Countout|countout]]; alternatively, the match could end in a [[Professional wrestling#No contest|draw]]. With the introduction of an on-screen [[referee (professional wrestling)|referee]] in ''WWF SmackDown! Just Bring It'', the ability to win by [[Professional wrestling#Disqualification|disqualification]] was also included.

Included with the release of ''WWE SmackDown! vs. Raw'' was the option of fighting "[[heel (professional wrestling)|dirty]]" or "[[face (professional wrestling)|clean]]". When players select "dirty", the superstar is [[booing|booed]] by the audience in the game; conversely, the "clean" superstar is [[cheer]]ed by the audience. With the "dirty" or "clean" option comes the inclusion of performing a special maneuver when playing. Players using a "dirty" superstar must direct their superstar into building up their "dirty" meter by performing "dirty" tactics, such as attacking the referee or taking the pad off the [[wrestling ring|ring]]'s [[turnbuckle]]. Unlike performing dirty tactics, "clean" superstars build their meters by performing "clean" tactics, such as an [[professional wrestling aerial techniques|aerial techniqupe]] or performing a [[taunt]]. When "dirty" superstars' meters build up, they are able to perform a signature [[groin attack|low blow]]; likewise, "clean" superstars can perform their signature move at double its normal damage.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.gamespot.com/ps2/action/wwesmackdownvsraw/review.html?om_act=convert&om_clk=tabs&tag=tabs;reviews|title=WWE SmackDown! vs. Raw Online Review|last=Navarro|first=Alex|publisher=[[Game Spot]]|accessdate=June 11, 2008|date=November 4, 2004}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=http://gameinformer.com/NR/exeres/E8E5347F-0E09-4308-BBC0-EEBB2120F0A2.htm?CS_pid=281096|title=WWE SmackDown! vs. Raw Online Review|publisher=[[Game Informer]]|accessdate=June 11, 2008 |archiveurl = http://web.archive.org/web/20080804130730/http://gameinformer.com/NR/exeres/E8E5347F-0E09-4308-BBC0-EEBB2120F0A2.htm?CS_pid=281096 |archivedate = August 4, 2008}}</ref>

With the release of ''WWE SmackDown! vs. Raw 2006'' was the inclusion of a stamina system, which was a measure of the superstars' stamina. The stamina system was measured by a meter on the [[HUD (video gaming)|HUD]]; the meter decreased when performing a variety of moves. The meter increases, however, when the player does nothing with the superstar or holds down a selected button that increased the stamina, which varied depending on the player's system. When the superstar's stamina was low, the wrestler reacted by moving slower when performing moves, walking, and running. If the meter decreased completely, the superstar fell to the ground until the meter increased.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://reviews.cnet.com/playstation-2-games/wwe-smackdown-vs-raw/4505-9581_7-31452532.html|title=WWE SmackDown! vs. Raw 2006 CNET Review|last=Navarro|first=Alex|date=November 16, 2007|publisher=[[CNET]]|accessdate=June 11, 2008}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.cnet.com.au/wwe-smackdown-vs-raw-2006-240059100.htm|title=WWE SmackDown! vs. Raw 2006 CNET (Australia) Review|publisher=[[CNET]] (Australia)|accessdate=June 11, 2008}}</ref> This system is disabled by default since ''[[WWE SmackDown vs. Raw 2008]]''.

The weak/strong grapple system from the past games was removed from ''[[WWE '12]]'' onwards. Characters now perform different moves based on their opponent's current physical state. Players now have a window of opportunity to attack while still in a downed state and can also interrupt moves and [[Royal Rumble#Match|Royal Rumble]] eliminations with attacks. Similarly, the [[pin (professional wrestling)|pinning]] meter from the past games has been reworked to make it more difficult to kick out as a wrestler takes more damage. The game's [[artificial intelligence (video games)|artificial intelligence]] has also been adjusted to prevent players from [[Spam (gaming)|overusing]] the same move. In addition, the ability to store [[Glossary of professional wrestling terms#Finisher|finishing moves]] has returned. "Dynamic Comebacks" gives players on the verge of losing the opportunity to successfully hit a combination of moves to gain two finishing moves. New "wake up taunts" bring a downed opponent to their feet for a finishing move (such as [[Randy Orton]] pounding on the ground before his [[Cutter (professional wrestling)|RKO]] finishing maneuver).<ref name=IGN>{{cite web | url=http://ps3.ign.com/articles/117/1171523p1.html | title=E3 2011: WWE '12 Release Date and Cover - PlayStation 3 News at IGN |publisher=[[IGN]]|date=2011-05-31| accessdate=2011-05-31}}</ref> Players also have the ability to target specific limbs during matches and perform submissions through a "Breaking Point" submission [[minigame]].<ref>{{cite web|title=''WWE '12'' Dated and Detailed|url=http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2011-05-31-wwe-12-dated-and-detailed|publisher=Eurogamer|date=May 31, 2011|accessdate=2 June 2011}}</ref> OMG! moments were introduced to ''[[WWE '13]]''. These are moves than can be performed in certain situations with certain superstars when a finisher is obtained. An example of this is Mark Henry superplexing the Big Show, making the ring break and the match stop. Better weight detection was implemented to ''WWE '13'', so the smaller Rey Mysterio can’t body slam the 500 pound Big Show. In fact, super heavyweights like Mark Henry or Show now have different frames to better capture their enormous size. Pinning is now not only influenced by damage, but the power of the move that was previously executed. In ''WWE '13'' alongside selecting arenas, characters and the number of finishing moves available at the start of a match (a new option, which can range from 0 to Infinite), players will be able to adjust a setting called ‘Match Experience’. Three settings - “Quick”, “Normal” and “Epic” - will affect the overall pacing of a fight, independent of AI difficulty. Factors such as momentum, damage, enemy aggressiveness and even kick out and reversal rates will be affected.

To overhaul the gameplay of the series, 2K15 features five times the animation data of WWE 2K14, containing over fifty days work of motion capture by the WWE superstars. Over four times the amount of dialogue for commentary was recorded. The general gameplay of the game too has been revised, with the wrestlers being divided once more into classes, as was present in the Smackdown vs. Raw series. This creates what is known as "in ring psychology" was the classes (brawlers, giants, grapplers and high-flyers) all provide different and unique sensations within the game to provide more diverse mechanics. In addition, the game's overall core mechanics have been fundamentally altered.

WWE 2K16 introduces Working Holds which allows the player to go through a collar-elbow-tie up situation in order to either damage the opponent or regain stamina to reverse the tide in the match. Dirty Pins now come in various animations and also A.I. for the referee is improved for example, they break up collar elbow tie ups when the wrestlers are holding each other at the corner for too long. The Reversal Limit system was introduced to prevent players from reversing throughout the match, they come as minor and major ones depending on the class of the wrestler/diva. This method can be toggled on or off in the Options section. 

===Story modes===
In the ''WWE SmackDown vs. Raw'' series, the player was able to choose a "superstar" from a [[List of WWE personnel|roster]] and compete in an arcade-like feature called season mode. In season mode, players direct their superstars through different career obstacles through a year of WWE programming to gain respect with other superstars and popularity among the fans. Like superstars from WWE, the superstars in the ''WWE SmackDown vs. Raw'' series season mode are involved in storylines that affect their career mode in some way. Beginning with the release of ''WWE SmackDown! Shut Your Mouth'', the [[WWE Brand Extension]] has been included in season mode, and superstars are exclusive to one brand of WWE. A result of this feature is that the player's superstar may only wrestle superstars and compete for championships from the same brand on which he is a part of. In season mode, the player's superstar has the ability to earn and wrestle for a variety of [[championship (professional wrestling)|championships]] based on actual [[List of current champions in WWE|WWE Championships]]. When superstars win championships, their respect and popularity increase, which also increases their involvement in [[card (sports)#Main event|main event]] matches. As the superstar's respect and popularity increases through the year of WWE programming, it becomes more likely for the player to achieve the main goal in season mode, which is to earn a [[World Heavyweight Championship (WWE)|World Heavyweight Championship]] or [[WWE World Heavyweight Championship|WWE Championship]] match at [[WrestleMania]], the WWE's flagship [[pay-per-view]] event and the final stage in season mode. After the final stage, season modes begins again with the same superstar chosen before, though the player has the option of switching superstars. The superstar is then a part of the [[WWE Draft Lottery]] and is assigned to a brand.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://ps2.ign.com/articles/375/375004p1.html|title=WWE SmackDown!: Season Mode|first=IGN Staff|date=October 22, 2002|author=IGN Staff|publisher=[[IGN]]|accessdate=June 11, 2008}}</ref><ref name="SeasonMode2">{{cite web|url=http://ps2.ign.com/articles/375/375004p2.html|title=WWE SmackDown!: Season Mode|first=IGN Staff|date=October 22, 2002|author=IGN Staff|publisher=[[IGN]]|accessdate=June 11, 2008}}</ref>

Season mode was replaced with Road to [[WrestleMania]] in ''WWE SmackDown vs. Raw 2009'', and remained in the games until [[WWE '12]]. In this mode, players could choose from superstars to play as in single-player or multi-player [[glossary of professional wrestling terms#Angle|storylines]]. The difference is that each storyline is tailor made for the superstar the player chooses. This mode is a more authentic experience and less arcade-like than the former season mode was.

Road to WrestleMania was replaced with Attitude Era Mode in WWE '13. This single-player mode is an abridged recreation of a memorable time in sports entertainment, allowing players to journey through various storylines as eight of the most popular superstars of that time, including “[[Stone Cold Steve Austin|Stone Cold]]” Steve Austin and Dwayne "[[Dwayne Johnson|The Rock]]" Johnson.

The chapter-based saga moves through WWE’s struggle and eventual triumph during the “Monday Night Wars,” which saw the company on the brink of defeat at the hands of a powerful rival, [[World Championship Wrestling|WCW]]. Told from the perspective of the WWE during that period, matches and in-game cutscenes are supplemented by video packages assembled by WWE’s own editors.

In WWE 2K14 a single player campaign titled "The 30 Years of WrestleMania" was introduced, a nostalgic gameplay mode that recreates nearly three decades of WWE history, including 46 matches, classic WWE footage and many legendary characters. The mode features a distinct roster of wrestlers and alternate gimmicks, who wrestled at WrestleMania. In this mode matches have primary objectives, required to beat the game, and bonus historical objectives, which result in recreated WrestleMania moments. Sometimes the player must follow a guided sequence of inputs, rather than freely control the character. The player competes through storylines of various lengths, switching predetermined characters as they are completed. Each chapter has its own title and focus; "Hulkamania Runs Wild" focuses on Hulk Hogan and early WrestleManias, while "The New Generation" showcases the rise of [[Bret Hart]] and [[Shawn Michaels]] in the mid-1990s. The "Attitude Era" chapter brings back some matches from WWE '13's "Attitude Era" mode, as well as some not covered before. The "Ruthless Aggression" chapter focuses on the departure of The Rock, lessened focus on [[Triple H]] and rise of [[Randy Orton]] and [[Edge (wrestler)|Edge]]. The final "Universe Era" chapter focuses on the rise of [[John Cena]] and the returns of The Rock and Brock Lesnar. The video packages provided detailed the intro to Wrestlemania, Wrestlemania III, Wrestlemania V, which background glimpses IV, Wrestlemania VI, Wrestlemania VIII, a intro to the New Generation Era leading to Wrestlemania X also another promoting X, Wrestlemania XII, a video opening the Attitude Era leading to XIV, Wrestlemania 2000, Wrestlemania X-Seven, two videos about Wrestlemania X8, two about Wrestlemania XIX, two of Wrestlemania XX, Wrestlemania 23, Wrestlemania XXIV, A interchange video regarding the Ruthless Aggression Era to the Universe Era opening for XXV, Wrestlemania XXVI, Wrestlemania 27, next, a video of Wrestlemania 27, which crosses into XXVIII and another of XXVIII which culminates the first battle between the Rock and John Cena. Videos for XXIX was not included as three important matches were just finished at that event in the same year when the game was released. The matches were Undertaker vs. CM Punk; Triple H vs. Brock Lesnar & The Rock vs. John Cena for the Reality Era WWE Championship. The last video was an overlook of what happened throughout the decades showing some events going to the future of that pay per view.

'''WWE 2K15''' features the 2K Showcase, the core stories include CM Punk vs. John Cena & Triple H vs. Shawn Michaels. These rivalries detail from 2002 to 2004 (Triple H and Shawn Michaels) and 2011 to 2013 (CM Punk and John Cena). Three other stories which were included as DLC include The Path of the Warrior, a highlight behind the life of the Ultimate Warrior and his meteoric rise concentrating on championships to the Hall of Fame as commemoration. The Hall of Pain, a story behind the World's Strongest Man, Mark Henry as he punished many to become the World Heavyweight Champion and attempts to gain the WWE title. And lastly, the One More Chance story, which stars captain charisma, Christian as he complained about having one more match as his way of getting multiple second chances of earning the World Heavyweight Championship. Originally, these stories were meant to be produced for ''WWE '12'' , ''WWE '13'' , & ''WWE 2K14'' but the developers chose to use WWE '12 for Road to Wrestlemania. the Attitude Era for WWE 13 and 30 years of Wrestlemania for WWE 2K14.

''WWE 2K16'' details the historical career of Steve Austin, from his days at ECW when he was angry that things were not going to happen in a good sense for him. to WCW when he and Brian Pillman began to become a stong tag team leading to Austin suffering injury and going through a rub shot in WWE as Stone Cold, an anti-hero that was not going to be tame into a corporate man. Video Packages contain commentary that was remixed from ''WWE '13'' and ''WWE 2K14'' with the exception of some not documented before. Through DLC, the WWE Hall of Fame showcase contains what if matches and some from WCW; these matches were announced on Oct 7th 2015 and to be released alongside the Deluxe Editions of the video game.

===General Manager Mode===
Starting with ''WWE SmackDown! vs. RAW 2007'', a General Manager mode (or GM Mode for short) was introduced.  It allowed the player to act as the General Manager of the Raw or Smackdown brands (or ECW brand in ''WWE SmackDown vs. RAW 2008'').  After choosing a brand, and selecting to participate in the WWE Draft, or using a default roster, you then start a calendar year of hiring and managing Superstar and Divas, booking matches, establishing rivalries, and other options to try and win WWE fans to support your brand.  You must manage finances, contract or release Superstars & try to make better matches than your rival brand.  At the end of the year at WrestleMania, Vince McMahon will give ''The General Manager of the Year'' award to the show that was able to hold the most fans.

In ''WWE SmackDown vs. RAW 2008,  GM Mode was combined into one game mode called ''WWE 24/7 Mode''.  This basically allowed Superstars to train, make special appearances or other actions between matches during full calendar years.  After achieving specific goals through the game, a percentage will increase of becoming a ''WWE Hall of Famer / General Manager of the Year'' winner, and the mode does not end until this percentage reaches 100%.

This mode was discontinued in ''WWE SmackDown vs. RAW 2009.

===Universe mode===
The series has had a "WWE Universe" mode since SmackDown vs. Raw 2011 which replaces the career mode from previous games. The mode builds storylines, and integrates cut scenes and rivalries between wrestlers based on the matches that are wrestled. These cut scenes appear randomly before, during, and after the match. In ''WWE '12'', championships was not able to be toggled on and off from most wrestlers. ''WWE '13" introduced the option to toggle on and off rivalries injuries and tag team changes also crowd reactions. ''WWE 2K14'' was the last title to use the method of created arena before it was removed in ''WWE 2K15''. In ''WWE 2K15'', secret hints had to be unlocked through actions in this mode; they were 300 to collect. ''WWE 2K16'' allows wrestlers to be branded by multiple promotions.

===Exhibition mode===
[[Image:Wwfsmackdown2psx.jpg|right|thumb|200px|A screenshot of a [[ladder match]] featuring [[Jeff Hardy]] and [[Kurt Angle]] in ''SmackDown! 2: Know Your Role'']]
Other than the season mode, every game features an exhibition mode, where different professional wrestling match types are available. Basic matches included in every game are "one-on-one" matches, where a player chooses one superstar to wrestle another [[Computer game bot|bot operated]] or human operated superstar, or [[tag team]] matches, where a pair of superstars team together to face another team. These basic matches may also expand into [[Tag team#Tag team match rules|six-man tag team matches]] or [[Professional wrestling match types#Basic non-elimination matches|non-elimination type matches]], which include four or more superstars.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.gamespot.com/features/6183341/p-8.html|title=WWE SmackDown vs. Raw 2008 Game Spot Online Guide (P.8)|publisher=[[Game Spot]]|accessdate=June 11, 2008}}</ref> Besides basic matches, [[hardcore wrestling|hardcore]] based matches are also included, such as the [[Professional wrestling match types#Cages|Steel Cage match]], which has been included in every game, the [[Ladder match]], the [[Elimination Chamber]], which was first included with the release of ''WWE SmackDown!

===Online gameplay===
Starting with the release of ''WWE SmackDown! vs. Raw'', [[online]] gameplay was made available for players who had a [[PlayStation 2 Expansion Bay|Sony Network Adapter]] and a Sony [[PlayStation 2]]. Online gameplay was kept at a minimum, as online players only had two game modes to compete in: one-on-one and a Bra and Panties match, in which a player competes as a [[WWE Diva]] and strips the opposition of her clothes, until she is left with only her undergarments.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://ps2.ign.com/articles/561/561668p1.html|title=WWE SmackDown! vs Raw Review|publisher=[[IGN]]|last=Dunham|first=Jeremy|accessdate=June 11, 2008|date=October 24, 2004}}</ref> When ''WWE SmackDown! vs. Raw 2006'' was released, the online gameplay was changed, and players were able to compete in more match types, defend created championships, and compete with up to four players in each match.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://ps2.ign.com/articles/657/657279p1.html|title=WWE SmackDown! vs. Raw 2006 Online Review|last=Dunham|first=Jeremey|date=October 25, 2005|publisher=[[IGN]]|accessdate=June 11, 2008}}</ref> With the release of ''WWE SmackDown vs. Raw 2008'' on the [[Xbox 360]] console (PS3 would not see this feature until ''WWE SmackDown vs. Raw 2009''), players were able to select music from their system's [[hard disk drive]] into the video game, where the music can be used in superstars' [[Professional wrestling#Ring entrance|ring entrances]].<ref>{{cite web|url=http://ps3.ign.com/articles/831/831925p3.html|title=WWE SmackDown vs. Raw 2008 Review|last=Greg|first=Miller|publisher=[[IGN]]|accessdate=June 11, 2008|quote=Also, 360 kids get to rip music from their hard drive and put it in as entrance music.|date=November 1, 2007}}</ref>

===Roster===

Every game in the ''WWE SmackDown vs. Raw'' series includes a roster of "superstars" and "Divas" based on superstars who compete for WWE. Every year, WWE acquires new superstars and releases old superstars. As a result, every time a ''WWE SmackDown vs. Raw'' game is released, the new superstars are added into the game and the old released superstars are removed from the game to reflect the changes in the actual WWE. From the release of ''WWF SmackDown!'' to the release of ''WWF SmackDown! Just Bring It'', superstars were not divided into brands. In 2002, the WWE split its entire roster into [[WWE Brand Extension#Raw and SmackDown!|two brands]] of wrestling, called [[WWE Raw|Raw]] and [[WWE SmackDown|SmackDown!]], which were named after WWE's television shows.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://corporate.wwe.com/news/2002/2002_03_27.jsp|title=WWE Entertainment To Make RAW and SMACKDOWN Distinct Television Brands|date=May 27, 2002|publisher=WWE Corporate|accessdate=June 30, 2008}}</ref> The WWE Brand Extension was first featured in ''WWE SmackDown!

The games in production when the draft occurs include the changes that take place in the draft. For example, when ''WWE SmackDown vs. Raw 2008'' was in production during June 2007, the [[2007 WWE Draft]] took place, and the draft changes were included in the video game. Another brand of wrestling included in the series is the [[WWE Hall of Fame|legends program]], which was first included with the release of ''WWE SmackDown! Here Comes the Pain''.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://ps2.ign.com/articles/456/456113p1.html|title=WWE SmackDown!

The duplicate wrestler system began in ''WWE '12'' for example Christian appears as two different characters. in ''WWE '13'', Mick Foley's gimmicks Mankind Cactus Jack and Dude Love were used. Undertaker and Triple H appeared three times, Kane Christian Big Show Edge John Cena Chris Jericho JBL The Rock & Lita each show up twice. In ''WWE 2K14'', Big Show Kevin Nash Scott Hall and Undertaker appears three times; John Cena Brock Lesnar Triple H The Rock Chris Jericho Hulk Hogan Macho Man & Kane appear twice. in ''WWE 2K15'', Randy Orton and Triple H are the first two quadruplicates in the game's history. Mark Henry Daniel Bryan Alberto Del Rio Kane and Sheamus are the triplicates; CM Punk Batista Chris Jericho Ryback the Uso's Ultimate Warrior and Undertaker appear twice. ''WWE 2K16'' features Steve Austin promoted as Superstar Stunning Stone Cold '97 Stone Cold '03 and Stone Cold respectively given him the title as the first quintuplicate meaning five times. Mick Foley's gimmicks Undertaker and Triple H return as three, the Rock Kevin Nash Big Show Kane Stephanie McMahon and Arnold Schwarzenegger appear two times. The Render Carry-Over method has been used as well. Mankind's photo in ''WWE '12'' has appeared in ''WWE '13 and ''WWE 2k16''. Another example is Kevin Nash who has a picture from WWE '12 was included in ''WWE 2K15'' & ''WWE 2K16''.

Currently ''WWE 2K16'' with 133 on the disc and 157 altogether when the DLC is added giving this title "the highest character roster in the video game's history".

===Create mode===
[[Image:Create.jpg|right|200px|thumb|The create-a-wrestler feature, as seen on ''WWE Smackdown vs Raw 2008'']]
The series features a create-a-superstar mode, where players are able to create their own wrestler, including their move set and ring entrances. The feature was introduced when ''WWF SmackDown!'' was released in 2000. As new games were released, the mode was altered; the first change came with the release of ''WWF SmackDown! 2: Know Your Role'', which featured a mode in which wrestler taunts could be created and customized. This was further modified in ''WWE SmackDown! Shut Your Mouth'', which enabled players to create the walking style of a wrestler.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.gamespot.com/ps2/sports/wwesmackdownshutyourmouth/review.html?om_act=convert&om_clk=tabs&tag=tabs%3Breviews&page=3|title=WWE SmackDown!

As an addition to ''SmackDown vs. Raw 2009'', a create a finisher mode was introduced where the player chooses up to 10 out of 500 animations combined to make their own personalised finisher. On the 360 and PS3 versions of ''[[WWE SmackDown vs. Raw 2010]]'', it is possible to change the colors of a featured superstar's attire, this new mode is known as "Superstar Threads". In this game, there is also a new creation mode giving players the ability to create their designs.

==Development==
Every game in the ''WWE 2K'' series is developed by [[Yuke's]] and [[Visual Concepts]], and published by [[2K Sports]].<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.yukes.co.jp/english/game/game_title_list.html|title=Yuke's Future Media Creators game developing list|publisher=[[Game Spot]]|accessdate=June 11, 2008}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.gamespot.com/games.html?type=company&mode=6374|title=THQ Company Page|publisher=[[GameSpot]]|accessdate=June 11, 2008}}</ref> From 1999 - 2013 the publisher was [[THQ]]. The game engine was originally based on the one used by the Japanese professional wrestling video game series ''Toukon Retsuden'', which was also developed by Yuke's.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.gamespot.com/ps/sports/wwfsmackdown/news.html?sid=2446823|date=November 10, 1999|accessdate=May 23, 2008|title=New WWF Smackdown Screens|publisher=[[GameSpot]]|last=Kennedy|first=Sam}}</ref> Before the release of ''[[WWE SmackDown! vs. Raw]]'', the only communication possible in season mode was through [[subtitle (captioning)|subtitles]]. [[Voice over]], however, was included in season mode with the release of ''WWE SmackDown! vs. RAW''. WWE superstars record a script, which is then assigned to the voice of the corresponding superstar in the game. With the exception of ''WWE SmackDown! Here Comes the Pain'', pre-recorded commentary by WWE commentators has been included in each game since the release of ''WWF SmackDown! Just Bring It''.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://reviews.cnet.com/playstation-2-games/wwe-smackdown-vs-raw/4505-9581_7-31449307.html?tag=prod.txt.1|title=WWE SmackDown! v. Raw Review|last=Navarro|first=Alex|date=November 1, 2004|publisher=[[CNET]]|accessdate=June 11, 2008}}</ref>

Yuke's studios in [[Yokohama, Japan]] worked with WWE writers to create storylines for the season modes of each game.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://uk.videogames.games.yahoo.com/ps2/previews/wwe-smackdown--vs--raw-2006-b1a8a8.html|title=WWE SmackDown! vs. Raw 2006 GM Mode Spotlight|publisher=Yahoo! Games (UK)|author=[[Game Spot]]|accessdate=June 12, 2008}}</ref> When ''WWE SmackDown vs. Raw 2007'' was released for more than one [[video game console|console]], Yuke's had to port their original [[source code|game codes]] that make up each game mode and graphic designs to a new [[game engine]] that supported the new consoles. When new features are added to ''WWE 2K'' games, developers have to create new gaming codes for the features. Along with the features, the developers have to test the game for any errors.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://ps2.gamespy.com/playstation-2/wwe-smackdown-vs-raw-2007/747289p2.html|title=Yuke's break down SmackDown! Online|last=McGarvey|first=Sterling|date=November 1, 2006|publisher=[[Game Spy]]|accessdate=June 12, 2008}}</ref> An improvement done yearly by Yuke's with each release of a ''WWE 2K'' game is the [[polygon]] count for the [[3D Computer Graphics|3D models]] of the superstars in each game.

The original ''[[WWF SmackDown! (video game)|WWF SmackDown!]]'' was one of the most popular games for the [[PlayStation (console)|PlayStation]] console in 2000, selling over 975,000 units for the PlayStation,<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.the-magicbox.com/Chart-BestSellUS.shtml|title=US Top Best Selling Games in 2000|publisher=Magic Box|accessdate=June 12, 2008}}</ref> and selling over one million copies in the United States.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.the-magicbox.com/Chart-USPlatinum.shtml|title=US Platinum Chart Games|publisher=Magic Box|accessdate=June 12, 2008}}</ref> The game lost appeal due to the failing of a well-established season mode that was deemed "disappointing." The season mode was criticized for the lack of in-depth storylines and the way superstars spoke in season mode, through "putrid lines" and "blocked text."<ref>{{cite web|url=http://psx.ign.com/articles/163/163317p1.html|title=WWF SmackDown! Review|last=Nix|first=Marc|publisher=[[IGN]]|accessdate=June 12, 2008|date=March 1, 2000}}</ref> ''[[WWF SmackDown! 2: Know Your Role]]'' received a better reception than the first ''WWE SmackDown'' game, as [[IGN]] stated that season mode "actually works properly", though the audio of the game was lacking as there was no [[sportscaster|commentary]], and only generic music was included in the game.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://psx.ign.com/articles/164/164828p1.html|title=WWF SmackDown! 2: Know Your Role|last=Smith|first=David|publisher=[[IGN]]|accessdate=June 12, 2008|date=November 22, 2000}}</ref> ''[[WWF SmackDown!

Just Bring It Review|last=David|first=Smith|date=November 19, 2001|publisher=[[IGN]]|accessdate=June 12, 2008}}</ref> while GameSpot stated that the addition of audio commentary detracted from the playing experience.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.gamespot.com/ps2/sports/wwfsmackdownjustbringit/review.html?om_act=convert&om_clk=tabs&tag=tabs%3Breviews&page=3|title=WWF SmackDown!

''[[WWE SmackDown! Shut Your Mouth]]'' and ''[[WWE SmackDown! Here Comes the Pain]]'' received more positive reviews from both IGN and GameSpot, both of whom cited the expanded season mode as an improvement, although flaws were still visible in the mode. It improved from the previous three ''WWF SmackDown!'' games, as it was written by actual WWE storyline writers.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://ps2.ign.com/articles/456/456414p5.html|title=WWE SmackDown!
