WWE 2K22 is set to hit different this March, as we have the first details and trailer

2K have finally revealed WWE 2K22, they have been teasing it for a while, including that end of year tease last year, but now we have a full trailer, gameplay details and most importantly, the release date, check out the new trailer below.

The game is coming on March 11 for PlayStation 4, Xbox One, PC, PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S, sorry Switch owners, you are not getting hit this time.

If you couldn’t tell by the box art at the end of the trailer, Rey Mysterio is the cover star for this latest entry in the series.

“Representing the culture of lucha libre as the cover Superstar for WWE 2K22 is a moment of great pride for me,” said Rey Mysterio. “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 2K Showcase.”
“Throughout his career, Rey Mysterio has staged multiple comebacks to prove his resiliency time and time again, and through it all, has cemented his legacy as a living legend of sports entertainment,” said Alfie Brody, Vice President of Global Marketing Strategy at 2K. “In that same spirit of resiliency, WWE 2K22 strikes back with a slew of upgrades and community-requested features to give players complete control over the WWE experience.”

One of the big additions to the game, apart from the new engine, animations, controls and just about everything else is the MyGM mode, which lets you be the boss of all.

In MyGM, players step into the role of a WWE General Manager and call the shots on their way to building the biggest brand in the WWE Universe. From drafting the ultimate roster of WWE Superstars and Legends to developing iconic rivalries and championship showdowns, players will get the chance to take the reins and prove themselves on sports entertainment’s biggest stages.

That is not the only new mode to be added, with the franchise-first MyFACTION mode, players can collect and manage their dream faction with weekly events and regular updates, providing tremendous challenges and replay value.

Of course, popular game modes are returning, including the 2K Showcase - starring Rey Mysterio - and will incorporate new features and updates, allowing players to relive the iconic moments behind Mysterio’s most famous matches.

For those who want to fight to the top, there is MyRISE, and this is where players chart their own paths to superstardom. With Universe Mode and the upgraded Creation Suite, WWE 2K22 offers players the ability to fully customize their WWE experience down to the smallest details. From taking control over brands, premium live events, match results, rivalries, and more – or creating the ultimate custom Superstar personas, arenas, and championships – players can share all their creations with the global WWE 2K22 community with first-time-ever, cross-platform sharing.
