WWE 2K22 Gameplay Trailer Released Ahead of Royal Rumble

Ahead of tonight’s WWE Royal Rumble event, which airs live on Peacock, publisher 2K and developer Visual Concepts have released a new WWE 2K22 gameplay trailer. It features several top WWE Superstars including cover star Rey Mysterio, Brock Lesnar, Undertaker, and more. The wrestling game will release on March 11, 2022, for the PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, and PC.

Check out the WWE 2k22 gameplay trailer below:

Following the particularly rough launch of WWE 2K20 — which saw the game launch in a glitchy state that was quickly panned by fans and critics — the WWE 2K series took a year off, with the release of WWE 2K21 being canceled to instead focus on fixing the issues throughout the series. Perhaps most importantly, the first thing that Visual Concepts did was redesign the engine for WWE 2K22 from the ground up. The team says that every dive, finisher, and attack should feel more realistic than in previous years and users will be able to be felt as soon as they pick up the controller.

New control options will also be available in the game, with a new configuration aimed to ensure players have more control over what they’re doing in the ring. Graphical overhauls have also been done, with Visual Concept saying these are the “best-ever” graphics for the franchise. Finally, the MyGM mode found in the game has been overhauled, although it’s currently unclear just what has been added into it as of now.
