In most of the WWE 2K Battlegrounds arenas are interactive options that can help you deliver more damage in matches. They are things such as throwing an opponent into a crocodile’s mouth or using a radio-controlled ram to attack your opponent. In this guide, we’ll take a look at how to do each of these interactive OMG moments in the game.
WWE 2K Battlegrounds arenas: How to do interactive moments in NY, Florida, & Scotland
In order to use interactive OMG Moments, you’ll obviously need access to the specific arenas mentioned here. To get them, check out our guide for unlocking Battlegrounds arenas. Now, we’ll go arena-by-arena to show how to unleash more damage using animals, cars, or other aspects.
New York City Lava – The New York City arena will occasionally feature glowing lava outside the ring on the floor. You can throw your opponent onto it once it’s active. Wait for the subway train to pass through in the left corner of the screen and then the lava is active. Be careful not to stand in it yourself, as it takes away from your energy bar.
Florida Everglades Crocodile – You can throw your opponent into the crocodile’s open mouth on either side of the ring. Simply pick them up on your shoulders (inside or outside the ring) and toss them at the crocodile. It will take a few bites and throw them to the ground. Note: High flyer style superstars can’t throw their opponent into the croc’s mouth, but can use an Irish Whip instead.
Scottland Bagpipes – There’s a guy in the crowd playing the bagpipes during the mouth. You can take them from him when he falls asleep and use them on your opponent.
Keep an eye on the bagpiper in the crowd (near the top of the screen/outside ring) for when Z’s are over his head. Then make your way over to him and press L1 on PS4 or LB on Xbox One to get the bagpipes.
Follow your opponent around the ring as you’ll play the bagpipes and cause your opponent to lose health. Note: There are also moments in the match when someone throws a set of bagpipes ringside that you can use.
How to do interactive moments in Mexico, Detroit, and Boot Camp arenas
Mexico Ram – The Mexico arena is the home of a remoted-controlled ram you can use to attack your opponent. The control station is in the crowd (similar arena as Scottland’s bagpiper). Head over to it and press L1 (PS4) or LB (Xbox One) to hop the barricade and use the controls. Your controller will allow you to follow your opponent around and attack them for about 15 seconds.
Detroit Auto Shop – In the Detroit arena, there are two different OMG interactive options. One is the orange car up on jacks at the right of the ring. You can pick up your opponent (in or out of the ring) and throw them towards it. They’ll land on the jack and the car will fall down on them. Note: You can also Irish Whip your opponent into the car.
Outside of the ring towards the lower-left corner is a red barrel. You can pick up and throw your opponent at the barrel to cause a big explosion. In addition, you can pick up the barrel by pressing L1 (PS4) or LB (Xbox One) and use it to hit your opponent. However, you’ll need to be quick when you grab it as they can explode quickly in your hands.
Boot Camp – The military-style arena is the one that features the helicopter we saw Daniel Bryan jump out of it the Battlegrounds trailer. The helicopter will fly around during your match and eventually start to hover down above the ring.
You can go outside the ring and press L1 (PS4) or LB (Xbox One) to jump up and interact with it. You’ll hang onto the helicopter and then you can use your controller to control the circle target that shows up in the ring. Once you’ve targetted your opponent press the controller button for a grapple attack to jump down onto your opponent.
