WWF Raw (2002) for Xbox and PC was developed by Anchor and aimed to deliver a simulation-heavy WWE experience. Featuring detailed graphics and authentic presentation, it impressed visually, with lifelike models and TV-style production. The roster included Austin, Rock, and Undertaker, alongside other top names of the era.

Gameplay emphasized slower, methodical pacing compared to the SmackDown series. While the visuals were praised, the controls were criticized as stiff, and the lack of depth hurt replay value. Still, Raw marked WWE’s entry onto the Xbox, and its authenticity in presentation left a strong first impression, even if mechanics lagged behind.
