Apr 1, 2026WWE 2K26 once again plays like a dream on the Switch 2, which means you've got a spectacular amount of WWE content you can take on the go.

Apr 6, 2026WWE 2K26 for Nintendo Switch 2 remains an impressive technical showcase for a handheld console. This version brings over all the content available on more powerful consoles with favorable results. Although it has some areas for improvement, it is a highly recommended game.

Mar 26, 2026WWE 2K26 feels like a great step in the right direction in various ways, finally offering a bit more substance in MyRise, a creative Showcase with some great ‘what if’ scenarios, and a massive 400-strong roster. However, it’s not without its issues on the Nintendo Switch 2, including occasional drops in frame rate and rendering issues.

Jun 23, 2026WWE 2K26 is the third mainline WWE game on a Nintendo platform in nine years. 2K has been building on a foundation of the core game for many years, now, and the year-by-year refinements are paying off. Handheld gamers will be eating well knowing that they can continue their Universe progress on the go. For those who haven’t played a WWE game for a while, this will feel amazing given the plethora of modes, which can feel intimidating and overwhelming at times, but having that many content options is not a weakness but a strength to the longevity of WWE 2K26. Those who buy WWE annually may not feel enough of a big leap from year to year, but given Nintendo Switch owners have been largely starved of the franchise, then this shouldn’t be the case at all.

May 13, 2026Once again, the largest roster in history, and the new match types may not be revolutionary, but they are a pleasant addition that further expands the possibilities. There are also a few substantial improvements to the gameplay mechanics, and the game's foundation continues to perfectly combine the spectacle of this industry with accessible controls. It's a shame it performs less well than the previous edition, and the Showcase with CM Punk has glaring omissions in its set of fights. I'll pass over the monetization - oh it's there!
