WWE '12 has all the bone-crushing, high-flying, showboating, slobberknocking action you've
come to expect—plus a whole lot more.
Use the completely revamped Limb Targeting system to pick apart an opponent and find his
breaking point. Or, add insult to injury with a Wake-Up Taunt before putting him down for the
count and making him wish he'd never stepped into the ring with you. And speaking of the ring,
the all-new Arena Creator lets you customize every aspect of the ring, right down to the logo on
the apron.
You've never had this much control over creating the ultimate WWE experience, or so many
ways to bring the pain. So what are you waiting for? Lace up your boots and hit the entrance
ramp—your journey to WWE immortality begins now!
