Play WWF Road to WrestleMania Online

Summary

WWF Road to WrestleMania (often just called Road to WrestleMania) was the first WWF title to land on the Game Boy Advance, and it remains the only one released before the promotion switched to WWE. The roster is a tight pack of 24 superstars, each with their own entrance and signature finishing move, and the game throws in a surprising variety of match types—from classic cage bouts to hardcore weapon‑smashing chaos. I liked that the season mode mirrors a real‑life career, forcing you to grind through weekly matchups until you finally earn a heavyweight championship shot at WrestleMania. Multiplayer works via the GBA link cable, letting up to four friends duke it out, which was a neat way to stretch the handheld’s limited screen. Critics were split: Metacritic settled on a middling 62, praising the cheesy intros and depth of content while bemoaning the 2D graphics, clunky controls, and the bare‑minimum animation—IGN even called it a rehash of the GBC effort. Still, for a portable wrestling game in 2001, it offered more than most handheld titles of its era.
