The series took a year off after WWE 2K20, which received poor reception over a slew of performance and gameplay issues. WWE 2K22 was a righting of the ship, offering an improved experience that this year’s edition will look to build off of. With the Royal Rumble and WrestleMania right around the corner, a new WWE game is sure to follow.

This year’s game will include a new Showcase mode featuring Cena, the company’s top draw over the 2000s and 2010s. He most recently showed up on the final SmackDown of 2022 teaming up with Kevin Owens.

Universe, MyGM, MyFACTION, and MyRISE will also be returning. War Games will debut in WWE 2K23 as a new match, bringing double-ring chaos to the virtual world.
