Visual Concepts has released a new trailer for WWE 2K24, promoting the new storylines in MyRISE mode. It’s where players can take their custom male or female Superstars and embark on their own stories, and it seems this year has some rather unique twists. Check it out below.

The popular WWE 2K24 community creator WhatsTheStatus has been banned following claims of him violating the game’s terms of service. In addition to recreating the thrills of a standard episode of Raw or SmackDown, WWE 2K24 gives players a chance to create their own action with custom wrestlers, arenas, and even championship belts. These creations can then be shared with other users through WWE 2K24’s online community, resulting in a vast virtual library of downloadable content for any squared-circle enthusiast to enjoy.

Former WWE chairman and CEO Vince McMahon remains embroiled in a sexual misconduct lawsuit alleged by former employee Janel Grant. As a result, 2K has decided to partially censor McMahon's face in WWE 2K24, in archival footage featured in the game's Wrestlemania Showcase mode. While McMahon denies Grant's allegations, which include sexual assault and trafficking her to secure wrestling talent, he resigned from WWE as CEO the day after the federal lawsuit was filed.

WWE 2K24 has implemented a hotfix that solved a frustrating issue affecting many Steam users who pre-ordered the game. Additionally, WWE 2K24 just received one of its first updates after releasing on March 8.

WWE 2K24 has just released a new update, making several quality-of-life improvements. Visual Concepts’ last couple of WWE video games have been constantly praised for their refined in-ring action, and WWE 2K24 is continuing this with good reviews so far. Fans who pre-ordered one of the game’s digital deluxe editions could jump into WWE 2K24 a few days ahead of its March 8 release, and now everyone can tag in and see for themselves how this year’s iteration builds on what worked in the past few entries.

WWE 2K24 has partially censored Vince McMahon in its 40 Years of WrestleMania 2K Showcase Mode in the wake of the former chairman’s recent controversies. Earlier this year, ex-WWE employee Janel Grant filed a lawsuit accusing McMahon of sexually assaulting and trafficking her. WWE and parent company TKO have since distanced themselves from him, with McMahon stepping down from his position as executive chairman of the company and WWE no longer acknowledging him on its on-air programming.

WWE 2K24 blurred out former WWE chairman and CEO Vince McMahon's face from some archived footage in its Showcase of Immortals game mode, although there's another instance where he appears fully uncensored, IGN has verified.

Some WWE fans are unhappy with Kurt Angle's WWE 2K24 rating, since it's lower than one of WWE's most controversial superstars from the current roster. Kurt Angle will be playable in WWE 2K24 alongside over 200 wrestlers from WWE's past and present, including John Cena, Shawn Michaels, Triple H, and Roman Reigns.

Visual Concepts and 2K Games revealed the roster recently for WWE 2K24, but two key figures – Brock Lesnar and Vince McMahon – were missing. While they may be unlockable, given the lawsuit from a former WWE employee against McMahon (with Lesnar also involved), it seems unlikely.

The WWE 2K24 full roster list has confirmed that Ken Shamrock will be featured in the game, returning to the WWE game franchise after a nine-year absence. For any WWE 2K24 fans who may be unfamiliar with his work, Ken Shamrock is best known for his time in the UFC, but he has also had a notable career in professional wrestling. This included a few years in WWE, then known as WWF, where Shamrock was an upper mid-carder during the Attitude Era.

The final rundown of wrestlers playable in WWE 2K24 has now confirmed the removal of Vince McMahon and Brock Lesnar, following allegations surrounding both men surfacing last month.

2K Sports has revealed the final roster for WWE 2K24, and it's impressive. Over 204 superstars are playable, including 70 Legends who are no longer on the main rosters and 8 managers, but there's a couple notable absences from the playable roster: former WWE chairman and CEO Vince McMahon and 7-time WWE Champion and 3-time WWE Universal Champion Brock Lesnar.

If you’ve paid attention to the wrestling world in 2024, things have gotten rather chaotic rather quickly. In the case of WWE, a massive scandal occurred concerning their former Chairman, CEO, and owner of World Wrestling Entertainment, Vince McMahon. Just before their premiere event, the Royal Rumble, a massive lawsuit revealed heinous acts McMahon and others within the company did. While we won’t talk about all of them via the explicit nature of things, let’s just say that a form of “human trafficking” and abuse was going on, and this would lead to changes within WWE 2K24, the company’s latest video game which is set to arrive in March.

With just weeks to go before the game is released to the masses, the upcoming wrestling game WWE 2K24 reveals the overall ratings for six of the superstars that will make up its roster, including Rhea Ripley and Logan Paul.

WWE 2K24 has released a new trailer confirming 18 of the 21 matches that will be featured in this year's Showcase mode. WWE 2K22's Showcase mode was themed after Rey Mysterio, while WWE 2K23 had players reliving some of John Cena's most memorable defeats. The upcoming WWE 2K24, meanwhile, is celebrating 40 years of WrestleMania with its Showcase mode, the aptly-named Showcase of the Immortals.

Take-Two Interactive and 2K Games have said that virtual currencies within games are «fictions created by game publishers» during a lawsuit which alleges that money is effectively stolen from players when games are shut down.

The WWE 2K franchise has spent the last couple of years finding its feet again after the disastrously received WWE 2K20, with last year’s WWE 2K23 being quite a solid effort in my estimation, even if it wasn’t quite the cohesive overall package I was hoping for. This year’s WWE 2K24 looks to build on that sturdy foundation with a wider array of new features than last year, including a new 2K Showcase celebrating WrestleMania’s 40th birthday, several new match types, gameplay updates like Super Finishers, and more (you can check out my full hands-on impressions here).

There are dozens of bizarro beat ’em ups outside of the mainstays, from Ninja Baseball Bat Man to Night Slashers. And then there’s Gourmet Warriors. Released on Super Famicom in 1995 as Gourmet Sentai Barayaro, the brawler finally arrived in English in 2018 thanks to Piko Interactive. Now it’s sharing the love with more platforms as part of publisher QUByte Interactive’s Classics lineup.

Remember when WWE boss Vince McMahon was in the hospital, and just as his examination was concluding and all seemed well, Stone Cold Steve Austin leapt in out of nowhere and clocked him with a bedpan? This is kind of like that: The pro rasslin' RPG WrestleQuest (Mr. McMahon) has been delayed (Stone Cold) by a last-minute bug (the bedpan).
