WWE 2K24 Ambulance Match Controls Explained

Just like most matches in WWE 2K24, the most important thing early on is to stay focused and wear down your opponent with different attacks. When it's time to actually get them in the ambulance, you first need to tap LB or L1 beside the ambulance doors while outside the ring.

This will open the doors up and allow you to put your opponent inside the ambulance, and there are a few ways to do that. The easiest way most players will find themselves using is to Irish Whip your opponent towards the open ambulance doors while on the outside of the ring.

This is the fastest option and has fewer actions, meaning fewer chances at a reversal, but sometimes if your placement isn't exactly right they'll get thrown to either side of the doors instead. Alternatively, Grab your opponent and tap RB or R1 to move them to a carry position.

Any carry position will work, you just want to walk them close to the ambulance and look for the X or Square prompt to appear. Tap the button and you'll throw or slam them into the back of the ambulance.

Once your opponent is inside, tap LB or L1 again to start closing the doors. You'll need to win two different mini-games, as both doors have to be shut for an Ambulance Match to end. On top of these WWE 2K24 controls, it's good to check Gameplay Options and turn on "ALLOW HELD INPUT FOR MINI-GAMES" if you ever struggle with button mashing.

Tips to Win an Ambulance Match in WWE 2K24

Getting your opponent in a Stunned state with successive attacks, or a well-timed Super Finisher, will give you the best chance of getting them into the ambulance without a reversal and shutting the doors for the win. However, the road to that moment includes a lot of potential detours in an Ambulance Match.

As this is an entirely new part of the environment, there are all new environmental attacks at your disposal. If you Drag a standing opponent towards the opened ambulance, they'll be placed on the steps and you can then use Light Attack, Heavy Attack, or Grab to deliver different attacks.

If you're beside the ambulance, tap RB or R1 while near the ladder to climb up on top of it. Delivering any slams up top will have extra oomph, and you can even throw your opponent off the ambulance. If you've got a little distance from the back end of the ambulance, you can Strong Irish Whip and a weakened opponent will go sailing off the end.

If you can't get that to work right or they're not damaged enough, Grab and tap RB or R1 to move to a carry position. Move to the back edge of the ambulance while carrying an opponent, and you'll be able to throw (or even powerbomb) them all the way to the floor. If you're feeling lucky, you can even do dive moves off the top of the ambulance after throwing someone to the floor. 

Finally, make sure you keep the ambulance doors shut until it's time to end things. Leaving them open in a difficult match will also leave you vulnerable to being tossed in, so it may be better to wait until your opponent is stunned to pop those doors open and finish your WWE 2K24 Ambulance Match with a win.
