‘WWE 2K25’ Grapples With Its First Major Early Access Update

‘WWE 2K25’ is turning out to be one of the most beloved entries in the ‘WWE 2K’ franchise, and here’s its first major Early Access update!

WWE 2K25 has gained early goodwill among those who have played it! Sitting at an 85 rating between Metacritic and OpenCritic, the series is enjoying its strongest critical outing in recent years. I mean, it is good, despite feeling like a bit of a “product.” But, anyway, WWE 2K25 released a crucial 1.03 patch for Early Access players! Without further ado, let’s get into it!

‘WWE 2K25’ Universe

  • Addressed reported concerns of Superstar information not being saved when leaving Universe

Truthfully, these are great fixes leading up to WWE 2K25‘s “official” release, though. Those small details matter when you’re looking at the overall quality of a game. Personally, even as an early player, I didn’t encounter many issues. Nothing crazy enough to mention in the review, anyway. Seriously, though, if you pick WWE 2K25 up and play nothing else? Basically, do that Bloodline Showcase mode.

Also, if you’re still here, you know what I want for the next game? More wacky stories. Like that time Sheamus won every single title in WWE 12. I’m not kidding, either:

I’m telling y’all, some of you still missed out on the most surreal storylines in these games. Hell, I still remember MVP’s “Better Than U-Topia.” 2K, it’s okay if you want to get goofy for MyRise next time!
