WWE SmackDown vs. Raw 2010 (PS2) price, value & rarity
The Korean edition of WWE SmackDown vs. Raw 2010, one of the last entries in the series to appear on PS2 in Korea, with broadened creation tools to shape wrestlers and storylines. A late release on a winding-down console for a minority wrestling audience, its local version was pressed in very small quantity. Desirability rests on its standing as the franchise's last representative on the machine in Korea and on the heightened scarcity of this late pressing.
Is WWE SmackDown vs. Raw 2010 still worth playing in 2026?
The 2009-2010 entry of Yuke's wrestling series, WWE SmackDown vs. Raw 2010 emphasises creation, with a very complete storyline and superstar editor that hugely extends the lifespan, on top of the refined wrestling engine and the licensed roster. The freedom of customisation, the variety of modes and the multiplayer fun make it a good vintage of the series. The frozen rosters and a PS2 production below the HD versions limit the current interest. A good wrestling game for nostalgics of WWE and fans of content creation.
