    While the game was fun, there's bugs that can crash the game or worse, make 2K20 like child's play. Can't download too many created superstars or you'll softlock, or crash the game when using them, movement is broken like 2K20, and control scheme couldn't switch to Playstation controls, if you use a Playstation controller...yes, I tried switching to DS4 to no avail.

I have to rely that my PS4 controller is an XBox controller. I get they took two years to try and freshen this up, but it lost my interest when I see bugs that echo 2K20 or worse. 2K19 was the peak 2K game they had before Yuke's left, and it just went downhill from there. Once again, 2K made an incomplete game...I hope WWE ends the contract and finds a better developer, cause this 2K22 isn't a step forward if VC makes several steps back. Expand

    at first I was satisfied but I'm starting to get tired of this game:
    - modes suck, they are boring (especially GM mode is a big tease)
    - the reverse movement system is really bad (doesn't always give you the option to reverse a move) - the physics of hair and objects remained poor - online servers are not working - they have released a lot of things from the creations (now you can't

    - the physics of hair and objects remained poor
    - online servers are not working
    - they have released a lot of things from the creations (now you can't create advanced entrance and you can't change the physical parts of your character)
    - the game collapses if you download too many things from the community, it becomes unplayable
    - in the roster there are very serious shortcomings (especially among the legends)
    WWE please fire 2K, they are incapable

    I'm not enjoying it that much.
    Reversals don't work in the vast majority of cases (Y for short) and there is no option to set a limit.
    Rolling and blocking moves, to me, is a big no. There is no more fatigue, health recharges (I can't find the reason). When you go to do the special/final moves after the third time, maybe, work. Combos are made easier(like they were hard in the old

    Combos are made easier(like they were hard in the old games) but now they are more awkward.
    Stiff gameplay and really uncomfortable and 'ugly'.
    GM mode is a mockery, pre-set and without the possibility of real decisions.
    Online not found lol.

    although the gameplay is better now
    i really cannot bear they force us to play the showcase and myrise to unlock
    there is no reason to buy the fake supercharger if it can't unlock everything like wwe2k19
    i hope you will not see 2ksport anymore next year
    try to change another company please

    The gameplay is better then 2k20 but is still liked 2k19 gameplay but this is good too, the graphics are ok but some characters are to cartoony, i give it a 9 because it dont crash like 2k20, the bugs are less and easier to resolve them, i had 2 bugs, i couldnt use a controller on my rise but i used steam big picture mode and the second bug was i couldn't fullscreen but i made the vertical sync on

    2K is the worst company ever!!! This game you can't play because of servers going down. So we have to wait over a month for more people after 2 years. Each game has had people like Bruno Sammartino, Ricky Steamboat, Bam Bam Bigelow, Greg Valentine, Lex Luger and more. Than we are missing others like Paige, The Bellas, Zelina Vega, Kurt Angle, Lita, Brutus Beefcake, Sycho Sid, Dusty Rhodes,2K is the worst company ever!!!

This was supposed to be the biggest roster and it isn't and definitely doesn't hit different at all. How can you have a rey mysterio showcase and not have the best matches with legends in it. Legends made WWE and for them not being in is ridiculous since 2K has had 2 years to do it. I know for sure they won't be happy with this! Than we need a new moves pack because hardly no new moves are in the game after 2 years! Expand

    WWE 2K22 is many things, but one thing most of us can probably agree on is that it is not, as retired WWE wrestler Bret Hart would say: "The Best There Is, The Best There Was and The Best There Ever Will Be". While WWE 2K22 might have made considerable strides forward in the area of general stability, compared with its infamously terrible launch, it’s doubtful that the studio will bother continuing to support it for much longer. One doesn’t have to be The Rock to know that 2K is probably already cooking up a new annual instalment. Here's hoping that in-between now and then, the publisher learns from both the successes and failures of WWE 2K22 and use that as a guide to give players a true WWE experience worthy of the license.

    We can't help but admit that 2K managed to create perhaps the most complete title of the series. Despite any hiccups, WWE 2K22 entertains enough to be recommended to people with little involvement with the genre or even an interest in sports martial arts.
