Camera options relate to the way you want to watch your fights. Especially Camera Cuts are important because this setting can increase your TV-like experience.

Balancing – WWE 2k23 Sliders Explained

Balancing is a general tab, which allows players to shape their matches with AI opponents. Mostly, the smaller the numbers next to the sliders, the easier the fight will be.

1. A.I. sliders – there are many sliders which shape the movement of AI characters. If you want to make them weaker, just move them to lower values.
2. Run-in – in wrestling the run-in takes place when a person who is not actively taking part in the match runs into the ring. Obviously, lower the slider if you don’t want to experience this.
3. Referee down time – it is self-explanatory. It is time the referee will be out of action after you knock this person down.
4. Reversal – it is your window of opportunity to push the right button and counter your enemies’ movements.
5. Stamina cost – it is a very important slider because it determines how often you will be able to do your moves.
6. Stamina / Stunned Recovery rate – in both cases, it is the time which you need to move freely again.
7. Rollout sliders – these sliders will determine how often and for how long you will be able to do it.
8. Stun gain – lower this slider if you want to resist stuns more. If the number is high, you will be easily stunned.
9. Stun duration – how long stuns last.
10. Vitality regen cooldown and rate – vitality is your health. So move these sliders to the right, to regenerate faster.
11. AI difficulty damage scaling – how much damage AI opponents will deal (based on your difficulty settings).
12. Drag and carry escape difficulty – lower this slider to make escape from drag and carry easier.
