WWE 2K23 PS5

As mentioned above, WWE 2K23 is once again set to take next-generation consoles by storm. On PS5, the game will run at 60 FPS on a 4K resolution. This will definitely enhance users' playing experience, making the game feel more real than ever.

One of the best PS5 features is the DualSense controller, which provides players with a great gaming experience. However, 2K still hasn't detailed how it will be used in WWE 2K23. Despite that, the DualSense haptic feedback should allow players to feel the impact of every move they perform.

With WWE GOAT and multi-time champion John Cena leading the line as the main cover star, 2K Games have wasted no time in attempting to make this year's game the best yet.

WWE 2K23 Release Date

This year's game features several franchise advancements, including a unique new take on the 2K Showcase, the WWE 2K introduction of the fan-favourite WarGames, and expansions to several marquee game modes.

The official WWE 2K23 release date is on Friday March 17, 2023, with the title Standard Edition going live around the world at that time. However, fans with the WWE 2K23 Deluxe Edition and Icon Edition will be able to experience the game earlier.
