WWE 2K22 Overview
WWE 2K22 is a professional wrestling video game developed by Yuke’s and Visual Concepts, and published by 2K Sports. It is the twenty-third installment in the WWE 2K series, as well as the first game in the series to be developed by Visual Concepts.

Release Date
2K Games has announced that WWE 2K22 will release in 2021. The specific release date has not been announced.
Gameplay
2K22 gameplay has significantly shifted back to a arcade style feel, similar to that of the older WWE games. The game is much faster paced and combo based, with less of an emphasis on pre-determined animations. This means that gameplay is more fluid and feels more natural. Players can now also string together ” OMG ” moments, which are special animations that can be triggered when certain conditions are met.
Game Modes
In WWE 2K22, there are a variety of game modes to choose from:
-WWE Universe: In this mode, you create your own version of the WWE Universe. You can set up rivalries and alliances, determine who appears on which shows, and create your own storylines.
-MyCareer: This is the mode where you create a custom wrestler and take them through their career, from competing in NXT to main eventing WrestleMania. You’ll have to manage your wrestler’s morale, health, and relationships backstage, as well as making sure they stay in peak physical condition.
-Play with Friends: In this mode, you can set up matches between friends locally or online. You can also create and save custom logos, arenas, and highlights reel clips in this mode.
-Tournaments: In this mode, you compete in tournaments against other players online. The tournament brackets are generated randomly, so you never know who you’ll be matched up against next.

They will be able to determine everything that happens in their Universe, from who holds the titles to who is drafted to what brand each Superstar is on.
Creating a WWE Universe
Creating a WWE Universe in WWE 2K22 is fairly simple, but there are a few things you need to do before you can start playing. First, you’ll need to create your WWE Superstars. You can do this by going to the “Create a Superstar” menu. From there, you can create both male and female Superstars, as well as tag teams. You can also import custom logos and entrance videos for your Superstars.
Once you’ve created your Superstars, you’ll need to assign them to a brand. There are four brands in WWE 2K22: RAW, SmackDown, NXT, and 205 Live. You can assign any number of Superstars to each brand, and you can also create custom brands if you wish.
After you’ve assigned your Superstars to brands, you’ll need to create some Championships for them to compete for. You can do this by going to the “Championships” menu. There are a wide variety of Championship belts to choose from, including both singles and tag team titles.
Finally, you’ll need to schedule some matches for your Superstars to compete in. You can do this by going to the “Schedule” menu. Here, you’ll be able to schedule both singles and tag team matches, as well as Royal Rumbles and Battle Royals. Once you’ve scheduled a match, it will take place automatically on the next show that your Universe runs.
Managing a WWE Universe
In WWE 2K22, players will be able to create and manage their own WWE Universe. This mode will allow players to compete in matches, compete in rivalries, and ultimately become WWE Champion. Players will be able to choose from a variety of match types, including one-on-one, tag team, triple threat, fatal four way, and more. There will also be a variety of WWE Superstars and Legends that can be signed to contracts. Players will need to manage their Universe by setting up shows, assigning superstars to those shows, and booking matches.
WWE 2K22 MyCareer Mode
WWE 2K22 is the latest installment in the WWE 2K series and the first one to be released on the next-generation consoles. The game features a brand new MyCareer mode which allows you to create your own custom wrestler and take them through the ranks of WWE. In this mode, you’ll be able to customize your wrestler’s appearance, moveset, and more.
Creating a Superstar
In WWE 2K22, players will once again be able to create their own Superstars and bring them to life in the ring. The create-a-wrestler mode in WWE games has always been deep, allowing for a high degree of customization. In WWE 2K22, players will have even more options to choose from when creating their characters.
When first starting out, players will be able to choose from a number of different templates, which include both male and female Superstars. These templates will come with preset looks, movesets, and attributes. From there, players can then begin to customize their Superstars to their heart’s content.
Players will be able to customize their Superstar’s appearance, moveset, attire, and entrance. There are hundreds of different options available in each category, so players should have no problem creating the perfect wrestler for themselves. In addition to all of this, players will also be able to create entire teams of wrestlers and even stables.
Playing through MyCareer Mode
In WWE 2K22, your created Superstar begins their journey on the independent circuit before being signed by WWE and striving to become a WWE Hall of Famer. To achieve this, you’ll need to play through MyCareer Mode, increasing your Superstar’s attributes, learning new moves, and winning matches along the way.
Before you start playing through MyCareer Mode, it’s important to understand how attribute points work. As you win matches and accomplish goals in MyCareer Mode, you’ll earn attribute points that can be used to improve your Superstar’s abilities in six different areas:
Striking: This attribute governs how effective your character is at striking opponents.
Submissions: This attribute governs how effective your character is at applying submission holds.
Grappling: This attribute governs how effective your character is at grappling opponents.
Toughness: This attribute increases your character’s ability to withstand damage.
Speed: This attribute governs how fast your character can move around the ring.
Charisma: This attribute determines how good your promo skills are (more on that later).
Each of these attributes has a numeric value associated with it, with a maximum value of 99. The higher your attribute values are, the better your chances of winning matches will be. Therefore, it’s important to focus on improving the attributes that are most important to your playing style.
