The pre-orders for WWE 2K22 are finally available for PC, PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X, and Xbox One! It’s been more than a year since we last got any updates on the 2K22 series but at last, we are finally getting a renewed version very soon! Many suspect it to be released earlier to create hype for Wrestle Mania which is scheduled for its launch in August.
The upcoming game offers a series of new features, bug fixes, and a lot of exciting updates. To find out all about it continue scrolling!
If you’re an avid enjoyer of the game you must be aware of what went down with WWE 2K20. Well due to this the fans are demanding a free trial of the game beforehand. But will the developers fulfill these demands because it seems a bit too much to give out a demo of the game.
All three companies which are involved with WWE 2K22;2K Games, WWE Games, or Visual Concepts have not yet spoken up about the rumors surrounding the game. Which means that we might not be getting a free trial.
If we look at the previous releases, Visual Concepts have adopted the approach of free trials with their past games. And as they are the most active in the development of the game. We can expect something alternative to the same approach.
We might not be getting a free trial but there is an “early access” option. If you apply for this offer you will be able to play the game even before its launch!
Those who are planning to buy WWE 2K22 Deluxe Edition or WWE 2K22 nWo 4 Life Edition are the ones at the benefit. Because they’ll get to play the game three days earlier than the official release date. Which will land somewhere in March.
However, this might not be a good strategy to pacify fans. Because they are still skeptical about the performance of the game. And if you are one such fan then you’ll be delighted to know that the upcoming game is the unique one so far. Below you’ll read more about its gameplay and other new updates! So, let’s begin.
Rey Mysterio is the “cover star” of the game. 2K games confirmed this news. So, his fans can expect the highlights of his career to be there in the game. It will be interesting to find out how the developers accommodated it into the game. He himself is quite excited about the project. In his words:
“Representing the culture of Lucha Libre, the cover Superstar for WWE 2K22 is a moment of great pride for me. I’m looking forward to sharing the stories behind the big moments of my career with a dedicated community of players and connecting with WWE fans in a whole new way as they play through my 2KShowcase.”
Release Date
WWE 2K22 is scheduled to launch on 11th March 2022. However, those who are willing to purchase the early access version will be able to play the game on 8th March 2022.
The previous installment 2K21 did not have a smooth path. Its mid-development cancellation was a huge blow to the reputation of the franchise. However, you can expect the 2022’s version to be much better than it in terms of graphics, gameplay, and other updates.
Even 2K games have confirmed that 2K22 will offer realistic graphics which will give the players a much better experience.
Gameplay
Models in the earlier versions of the game seemed botched but this won’t be the problem in 2K22 because of its improved graphics. Some of the confirmed updates are:
- The Triangle button will now be used to reverse.
- Whereas the direction buttons are to brag, crowd, or Opponent taunt.
- To block you’ll have to hold the Y button.
- The strikes are weak and strong this time.
One thing is for sure that the game will be much better when it comes to visuals. It also has a brand new fighting engine so this 2K22 will surely “hit different”.
