Normally, Taunt’s purpose is self-explanatory, as it would, by default, allow you to taunt your opponent in a number of ways, depending on the directions you combine it with. If that’s the case, simply tap on the Taunt button and the referee will automatically run to your corner and make the three-count. In order to pin your opponent, their back will need to be on the mat. You will, however, need to make it quick because your Adrenaline state will only last a few seconds! This sets up most of the moves in the game, including your finisher, and once you’ve grabbed your opponent, you can tap on A, G, or P combined with any of the four directions to execute 12 different moves.Įach consecutive attack you land on your opponent builds up your Adrenaline, and once you see that word on the screen above your character, you can execute your finisher by grabbing your opponent and hitting A - it doesn’t matter which direction you combine it with, as that will automatically lead to the finishing move, which cannot be countered. While A is used for basic attacks and used together with the directional controls to set the location of your punches, G is arguably the most important button you will be pushing on a regular basis during your matches. The eye, on the other hand, is the Focus button, and it allows you to toggle your focus from character to character, or change the direction in which you are viewing the character, once combined with any of the directional controls. On the bottom right, you will see five buttons with letters and an eye button - the A is for Attack, G for Grapple or Grab, R for Run, P for Pick Up, T for Taunt. To recap what the trainer - who is actually Coach Emerson, the promoter of the in-game Wrestling School promotion - will teach you, you will find a joystick on the bottom left side that will allow you to move up, down, left, or right.

However, you can actually start right away from Footwork and just take it from there - you will be able to complete the other stages just as long as you follow the trainer’s instructions as closely as possible. In lieu of an automatic tutorial for first-time players, you’ll need to get there manually, and you can choose from Footwork, Striking, Grappling, Showmanship, Weapons, and Sparring. Regardless whether you’ve played previous MDickie titles or not, it would be most recommended if you start out by heading to the Training section, which can be found by tapping on Play, then on Training.

With that, we believe the game merits quite an extensive guide, and here it is - our comprehensive Wrestling Empire guide, where we break down all the tips, tricks and strategies you need to become a success in the in-game pro wrestling business.

It also comes with ten different brands, or promotions, a plethora of match types, and dynamic evolution for each and every character in the game. It happens to have an extensive in-game universe with hundreds of characters inspired by real-life WWE, New Japan Pro Wrestling, and AEW wrestlers (among other companies), and even several inspired by real-life UFC fighters and retired (or in some cases, deceased) wrestling and MMA legends. And it also comes with a bigger roster, new effects, and some new features that have helped keep the game fresh despite the fact its predecessor has been around for close to a decade.ĭespite MDickie’s traditionally minimalist, old-school graphics, one shouldn’t confuse Wrestling Empire as a casual game with an easy learning curve. Wrestling Empire is an updated version of that latter game, and it comes with better graphics, a smoother frame rate, and the same retro-inspired style that you may have come to love in Wrestling Revolution. Mobile gamers may be familiar with MDickie - the one-man company led by Mat Dickie, and the same developer/person that gave you mobile classics such as Hard Time, School Days, and Wrestling Revolution 3D.
