WWE SmackDown vs. Raw 2011 (also shortened to WWE SvR 2011 or "SVR 11") is a professional wrestling video game developed by Yuke's and published by THQ for the PlayStation 2
(PS2), PlayStation 3 (PS3), PlayStation Portable (PSP), Wii, and Xbox
360 systems. It is the seventh game in the WWE SmackDown vs. Raw series
and the final game under the SmackDown vs. Raw name, with future
installments simply being named WWE, hence, it is the final installation
of the SmackDown vs. Raw series. It is the sequel to WWE SmackDown vs.
Raw 2010 and succeeded by WWE '12. It is also the last installment for the PlayStation 2
and PlayStation Portable platforms. It was released on October 26, 2010
in North America, October 28, 2010 in Australia and October 29, 2010 in
Europe. The game is based on the two brands of WWE, Raw and SmackDown.
Game Play
One of the main changes in the game is the incorporation of a new
physics system that allows objects to be used more realistically, such
as objects involved in the Tables, Ladders, and Chairs match. Tables now
break differently depending on the impact placed upon them. Inside and
outside the ring, ladders can now be rested onto the ring ropes and be
broken in half. For the first time since the original WWE SmackDown! vs.
Raw game, chairs can be thrown at the player's opponents.
The Hell in a Cell match was revamped with expanded cell walls, weapons
underneath the ring, steel steps near the poles, and the removal of the
cell door. In addition, new ways to exit the cell were introduced, such
as barreling through the cage wall.
Game Modes: WWE Universe
The game's new "WWE Universe" 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. The game features more than 100 cutscenes to push storylines,
which can revolve around alliances, rivalries and titles, forward. The
game reacts to the players actions and depending on the goal of the
player's superstar, original or created, puts them in one of, or
several, the top ten contenders lists for a specific title. However, one
can only get into the contendership list depending on their rivalries,
alliances, match types and most importantly, win-loss ratio.
Road to WrestleMania
Road to WrestleMania mode has been modified to include new features such
as backstage roaming, mini-quests, and further interaction with other
Superstars. Playable storylines involve Rey Mysterio, John Cena, Christian,
and Chris Jericho. Along with that is the new storyline in which
players choose Kofi Kingston, John Morrison, Dolph Ziggler, R-Truth, or a
created superstar in a quest to end The Undertaker's undefeated
WrestleMania streak. Like previous iterations, the game features several
storylines starting during the card leading to the Royal Rumble, a time
period which is dubbed the Road to WrestleMania.
Create modes
The Create A Superstar mode now includes pre-loaded attribute points for
created superstars, while in Create A Finisher mode, a new finisher
position is the "Corner", in which finishers can be created in corner
position (Cannot be used during the Royal Rumble match) . Also
attributes such as speed and trajectory can now be modified by single
increments rather than 25% increments. The number of available created
finishers has been expanded to 130 as well. Online mode also returns –
each new copy of the game contains an Online Pass allowing one user to
play the game online for free. Players who rent or purchase the game
used will obtain a trial of Online Pass.
A new feature called "Match Creator" allows players to create new match
types. In addition, Story Designer mode now has new cutscenes, usable
sound clips from announcers and wrestler entrance music, support for up
to fifteen created superstars, 'branching' story paths depending on
which character won the match and the ability to include championship
belts in cutscenes and event triggers based on a wrestler reaching a
certain state.
Special editions of the game featuring The Undertaker, Bret Hart and
Randy Orton were released, each offering exclusive in-game content, an
art book and DVD relating to each wrestler. Various retailers offered
in-game bonuses to those who pre-ordered the game including a playable
Bret Hart, The Undertaker's alternate Ministry of Darkness attire, three
alternate outfits for Randy Orton and the WWE Tribute to the Troops
arena.
Three downloadable content packs have been confirmed. The first pack,
"Online Axxess" was available at release and adds playable character
Chris Masters, Halloween-themed attires for Kelly Kelly and Rey Mysterio
and online multiplayer mode. The second pack was released in North
America and United Kingdom on December 21, 2010. This pack contains the
playable characters British Bulldog, Lex Luger, Layla and Nexus members
Wade Barrett, David Otunga, and Justin Gabriel along with alternate
attires for Shad Gaspard and Shawn Michaels and the NXT Arena. The third
pack includes alternate attires for John Cena, The Undertaker, Sheamus
and CM Punk as well as the WCW Nitro Arena. THQ has offered players a package deal called "Fan Axxess" to purchase the last two content packs beforehand.
