Introduce
WWF WrestleFest is a classic arcade wrestling game developed by Technos Japan and released by Technos in 1991. This title quickly became one of the most beloved wrestling games in arcades due to its vibrant graphics, extensive roster, and engaging gameplay.
Players can choose from a roster of top WWF (now WWE) superstars of the era, including Hulk Hogan, The Ultimate Warrior, Mr. Perfect, Jake "The Snake" Roberts, Earthquake, Ted DiBiase, Legion of Doom (Animal & Hawk), Demolition (Smash & Crush), and many more. Each wrestler possesses their own distinctive moves and finishing maneuvers, offering a variety of approaches to each match.
The gameplay of WWF WrestleFest focuses on fast-paced and intuitive action. Controls typically involve movement, striking (punch/kick), grappling, and running. Once an opponent is grappled, players can execute various throws, slams, or holds. A key feature of the game is the "Power-Up" system; once a wrestler's energy bar is full, they can perform their powerful signature finisher to defeat opponents.
The game offers two primary modes: "Saturday Night's Main Event" and "Royal Rumble".
- In "Saturday Night's Main Event," players select a team of two wrestlers and embark on a series of tag team or single matches to win the championship. The goal is to defeat various opponents and ultimately the reigning champions to claim the belt. Matches can be 1-on-1, tag team, or even 2-on-1 handicap, providing diverse challenges.
- The "Royal Rumble" mode is a highlight of WWF WrestleFest, featuring up to 6 wrestlers in the ring simultaneously. The objective is to eliminate all opponents by throwing them over the top rope. This is an incredibly chaotic and fun mode, requiring players to employ strategic movement and attacks to avoid elimination.
The game's pixel graphics are highly detailed, and the animations are fluid, accurately representing the wrestlers and their moves. The sound effects and background music also contribute to the energetic atmosphere of a professional wrestling match. WWF WrestleFest is still considered one of the best arcade wrestling games of all time, delivering an excellent entertainment experience for both wrestling fans and gamers alike.
