A Recent Lawsuit May Have An Impact On Virtual Tattoos
Although there has been little talk regarding WWE 2K23, a lawsuit that has been pending against WWE and 2K for years may have an effect on the next release.
Despite receiving $3,750 in damages for the unauthorized use of her artwork, the tattoo designer who worked on multiple Randy Orton tattoos did not share in the revenues from the WWE video games that featured Orton.
There is no official word yet on how this will be handled going forward, but the judge deciding in favor of the artist leaves things open for others who see their tattoo work represented in the game.
To further understand the significance of this ruling, we’ve included background information on the complaint and how it differs from others concerning tattoos in video games.
Predicted WWWE 2K23 Release Date
The exact date they select to release WWE 2K23 is the biggest mystery surrounding the game. WWE games (beginning with WWE 2K) have traditionally been released in the late Autumn, around September/October.
The original release date for WWE 2K20 was October 22, 2019, but due to unforeseen events, the release of WWE 2K22 has been delayed significantly. WWE 2K22’s release date has been moved back to March 11, 2022, due to the cancellation of WWE 2K21 and the subsequent delay to further establish the quality of the next championship.
WWE 2K22’s release just three weeks before WrestleMania 38 may have played a big part in the title’s popularity and overall buzz, despite the fact that it seemed at first to be a one-off.
The previous October launch period has now passed, therefore it seems almost certain that WWE 2K23 will continue with a Spring release, which has been the subject of much speculation. As a result, we think the most likely release date for WWE 2K23 is on Friday, March 10, 2023, just a few weeks before WrestleMania 39 is held in California.
Announce Platforms, Prices, And Trailer Before Pre-ordering
The release date for WWE 2K23 is expected to be announced alongside a flurry of other information, such as the confirmed platforms, finalized pricing, and the beginning of pre-orders.
We anticipate that WWE 2K23 will maintain the same pricing structure as its predecessor, with the Standard Edition retailing for $59.99 on PS4, Xbox One, and PC and $69.99 for Current Gen consoles (Xbox One S and PS5).
While a Nintendo Switch port could be investigated this time around, no firm plans have been announced as of yet. The big reveal trailer for the new game will most likely also include all of these facts and the pre-order launch.
Usually, the NBA 2K series releases in September, with the announcements being made around two months beforehand in July. Due to this and the fact that WWE 2K22’s reveals occurred in January, we anticipate that WWE 2K23’s will occur in the same month.
Alternative Gameplay And Other Modifications
It is anticipated that MyGM, MyRISE, Universe Mode, and the 2K Showcase will all return for WWE 2K23. After the release of WWE 2K22, MyGM continued to grow, and we anticipate this trend to continue in the coming year in the hopes of introducing a MyGM option that lasts indefinitely rather than the current maximum of 50 weeks.
MyRISE’s story mode in WWE 2K22 was well received, so we anticipate a very similar format this year, along with brand new stories that make use of the same branching storylines and side quests. The WWE 2K Showcase will undoubtedly feature a major player, such as Roman Reigns or Edge, in Universe Mode, making it the game’s definitive sandbox.
WWE 2K22 nailed a lot of the franchise’s problems in recent years, and WWE 2K23 should continue that trend with more polish and new features to improve upon what’s currently there.
Forecasting The Cover Model
It’s a major deal to decide who will be on the cover of WWE 2K23, especially since WWE 2K22 featured the famous Rey Mysterio. In spite of the fact that another icon is likely to be featured soon—Edge being a top contender—three contemporary stars have compelling arguments for being included on the cover.
With 600+ days of unequaled domination as Universal Champion, Roman Reigns is the most apparent choice, and it’s an understandable one. As a rising star whose popularity is only expected to grow, Bianca Belair would be the finest option among today’s crop of young celebrities.
Finally, in “The American Nightmare” Cody Rhodes is a long shot but might be a risky selection if WWE 2K23 releases before AEW Fight Forever.
