WWE 2K22 might finally be coming out in March

It’s been a few years since wrestling fans have got a new WWE game, but now a leak suggests the WWE 2K22 release date may be as soon as March – with the leak also revealing pre-order details, early access, and the cover featuring a very colourful Rey Mysterio.

As 2K Games is hoping people have forgotten, its last wrestling was WWE 2K20 released back in 2019 and was incredibly broken. It became the laughing stock of the internet, and was actually so bad WWE 2K21 got cancelled altogether. 2K Games told fans the series would be taking a year off to make sure that disaster wouldn’t happen again.

Well, it’s been more than that – in fact, it’s nearly been a full year since WWE 2K22 was announced and there’s still no word about the game’s release. Until today, of course, as leaker Nils Ahrensmeier has posted a lot of information about the game – including WWE 2K22’s two covers and a release date of March 11, with three-day early access starting March 8 available presumably as part of the deluxe edition or a pre-order bonus.
