Reinventing its iconic SmackDown vs. Raw series, WWE '12 boasts all-new Predator Technology, which provides the most fluid and realistic animations ever seen in a WWE video game, improved artificial intelligence (A.I.) and an innovative "Breaking Point" submission system. Immersing the WWE Universe in the action even further is WWE '12's dynamic TV-style presentation that utilizes new rendering and lighting technologies to masterfully recreate the unique thrills of Raw, SmackDown and WWE pay-per-view events. In the new Universe mode you now have more freedom. You can at any time assign any championship to a brand, change the name of the show (for example to WCW Nitro instead of Raw, or ECW instead of SmackDown) and in general there are better "stories" that do not repeat like SmackDown vs. Raw 2011. In addition, there is only one announce table and it stands next to a couple of chairs that you can use as a weapon.
The difficulty in NORMAL WWE'12 can be compared with the difficulty in LEGEND WWE SmackDown vs. Raw 2011. It has been confirmed that there are 5 Free Brawl (Backstage matches) areas,
There are 62 in game unlockables. including 14 arenas, 14 Wrestler, 14 Attire, 14 titles and 6 Extras and it has also been confirmed that there are 7 "fixed" Stables / teams in the game as a default, there names are yet to be confirmed

==Xbox 360 Achievements==
==Reception==
WWE '12 received generally positive reviews upon release, with IGN giving it a 9.0. This was the highest rating ever for a game in the WWE series. It got named on IGN's one of the best of the year and the fall. They said that WWE '12 not only managed to still bottle the core essence and style of the wrestling industry, it did it in a way that didn't sacrifice gameplay design and balance. If anything, the game's faults consist of attributes that ironically duplicate the WWE's own creative struggles. They said it was intense, hardcore, strategic, fun and you would never get bored of the variety and gameplay it had to offer. It has an 80% overall from GameRankings. EGM gave it a 9 as well. Console Obsession gave it an 8 and Xbox magazine gave it a 7. GameShark gave it a C-, saying that the series' impact was disappearing.

==Trivia==
*A returning feature, by popular demand from fans, is a title match (e.g. the WWE Championship) at any show if the player desires (e.g. WWE Champ CM Punk against Randy Orton on an edition of Raw)
*The WWE Draft has been implemented in the game where two or more superstars compete for a draft pick.
**There is a 1 in 10 chance that a world champion (World Heavyweight or WWE) will be drafted.
**In this game, the WWE Brand Extension has ended with superstars from both shows being able to compete on either show, meaning the WWE Draft is almost meaningless.
*If one is to form a team (e.g. Daniel Bryan and Sin Cara) the team will stay formed until they have a fight amongst each other, meaning a team could stay a team for years on end, and not even have a match together.
*In WWE Universe (2.0) when a superstar is injured, if a player wins the superstar's title with a heel wrestler, the injured superstar will return and either beat up the heel, or do a face-heel turn and betray the face wrestler challenging the champion.
*Oddly in WWE Universe mode, if a superstar is injured and is gone for more than 3 months, that superstar does not defend the title, nor is it taken away. This is possibly a developer oversight.
*In several promotional magazines and videos, Jacob Cass (the player-created protagonist of the Hero Story in Road To WrestleMania) was sometimes misspelled Jacob Caas or Jacob Caass. 
*In WWE'12, a major part of the roster is voiced by themselves (e.g., John Cena voices himself) but other superstars also voice someone else (Animal voices Hawk, due to the latter's death in 2003).
*In the game, there may be a minor glitch where if one is to buy and download "All Unlockables" they may still have to win a match in WWE Universe Mode to unlock Brock Lesnar.
*This game has been jokingly referred to as "The glitchiest WWE game ever" due to its constant glitches during matches by Game Informer.
*If one is to download a custom music track onto a wrestler, the cheering or booing will be much louder than with regular music.
*When you perform an RKO with Randy Orton, Michael Cole says, "thanks for playing", a reference to the game itself, as Orton is on the cover
