WWF WrestleMania Overview
WWF WrestleMania: The Arcade Game is a one-on-one fighting title that utilizes digitized graphics of eight WWF performers. Its roster includes characters such as The Undertaker, Bret "Hit Man" Hart, and Yokozuna.
The gameplay structure adopts conventions from fighting games, organizing matches into a series of rounds. Victory in a round is achieved by depleting an opponent's energy, which causes them to fall, rather than by a traditional knockout. Players can select from single-player arcade progression, a tournament format, or a direct versus mode for two players.
Despite its wrestling theme, the action emphasizes exaggerated special moves reminiscent of the televised WWF spectacle. The core experience is built around this hybrid of a fighting game framework and the licensed personalities.
