We don\u2019t have much time left to wait for the WWE 2K22 release date, which this time will see a big focus put on the legend that is Rey Mysterio.<\/p>\n

The wrestling sim, developed by Visual Concepts and published by 2K Sports, will be the 22nd game in the long-running series and there are no signs at all that it is running out of steam \u2013 this one actually looks like it could be the best in some time.<\/p>\n

With new modes and a returning favourite, there is a lot to get excited about with WWE 2K22, and here is all we know about it ahead of its imminent release.<\/p>\n

When is the WWE 2K22<\/strong>\u00a0<\/strong>release date?<\/strong><\/h2>\n

The WWE 2K22 release date is set for Friday 11th March 2022<\/strong>. There\u2019s not long left to wait until we get to play the game, then, which should be very welcome news to fans of this franchise.<\/p>\n

What platforms can I get WWE 2K22<\/strong>\u00a0<\/strong>on?<\/strong><\/h2>\n

You have several options for playing WWE 2K22. The game is set to be released on the PS5 and the PS4, while Xbox Series X\/S and the Xbox One range of Microsoft consoles will also be home to it. A PC release via Microsoft Windows has also been confirmed.<\/p>\n

Can I pre-order WWE 2K22<\/strong>?<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Yep, you can order WWE 2K22 online now to make sure that you get hold of it on release day. GAME<\/a> have the title in stock for each platform, while you can also pick up the game at Amazon<\/a>.<\/p>

WWE 2K22 gameplay<\/strong><\/h2>\n

So, you know when you can play WWE 2K22, but what is new with the game for this year?<\/p>\n

Well, first up, WWE 2K\u2019s MyCareer has gone through a change and has been renamed MyRISE. There are now different stories you can play through depending on if you choose to embark on the mode as a male or female wrestler. Choice will be more of a focus than ever before here, and what alliances \u2013 and enemies \u2013 you end up with will be almost entirely down to you and how you decide to play.<\/p>\n

MyFACTION is a new mode that puts the focus on collecting, managing, and upgrading WWE Superstars. Playing cards will be a big focus here and there will be many of them from across the years of WWE\u2019s history.<\/p>\n

Cover superstar Rey Mysterio is the face of 2K Showcase this time around which means we get to experience some of the biggest and best moments from his career in the ring.<\/p>\n

Also returning for WWE 2K22 is Universe Mode, while MyGM is back for the first time since 2007\u2019s SmackDown vs. Raw 2008 \u2013\u00a0 it went by the name of GM Mode back then. Also, Creation Mode has been opened up somewhat by being cross platform now \u2013 so we can all see what we all make regardless of where you play the game.<\/p>\n
