The WWE 2K23 team recently revealed what to expect in terms of MyGM mode improvements, including Championships, local talent, and more.
WWE 2K23 team teased MyGM mode improvements
These details were provided by Creative Director Lynell Jinks during a recent interview.
“Yeah, that was the focus was just adding more, right? We tried to do that and we did add more of that stuff post-release in WWE 2K22, and this year it’s just about more. More GMs. You can play up to four locally, in other ways if you know how to (laughs), but it’s still not a true online experience, unfortunately. But more match types, more championships, more local talent. It’s just more,” Jinks said.
“And again, with everything, the motto is even stronger for a reason. It’s just built… We’re building on everything that we did in WWE 2K22 and just trying to just add more to it. I think Bryan (Williams), you said it. You said, ‘Beautiful chaos.’ That beautiful chaos. That is professional wrestling, right? Just do whatever the heck that it is that you want and that’s the end goal. And every year we’re going to keep striving for that,” Jinks continued.
A greater representation of Championships and show options was one of the most requested additions to MyGM mode last year. At launch, 2K22 allowed you to have one Men’s Champion and one Women’s Champion, but thanks to an update, your show can now feature Tag Team Champions. Not available, however, were titles such as the Intercontinental Championship, United States Championship, and Women’s Tag Team Championships.
After hearing what Jinks said, it’s safe to assume that you’ll have a wider variety of Champions to feature in your show, as well as a larger pool of legends, current superstars, and local talent from which to choose. The new game also includes a new pin mechanic, a new WarGames mode, and a new style of 2K Showcase, which features John Cena once again. Despite Cena’s return, the mode is shaken up by the player having to play as Cena’s opponent in some of his most memorable defeats
WWE 2K23 Deluxe Edition and Icon Edition will be available for pre-order on March 14th, with the Standard Edition and Cross-Get Edition following on Friday, March 17th.
