WWE 2K23 takes the huge improvements made with last year's game and adds all manner of polish and tweaks. The game modes are each enhanced, while superstar and custom wrestler models look better than they ever have before. You won't find as many changes in the ring itself, but the sheer amount of content and the addition of the WarGames match should prove more than enough for fans.
WWE 2K23 offers a great amount of content for every WWE fan, no matter what mode will chose to enjoy. Technically above average and with a profound but affordable gameplay, its easy to have a great time with this game, although it has some aspects to improve yet.
After taking a year off to refine the formula, WWE 2K23 is back with a bang. Graphically impressive, filled to bursting with wrestlers and content, it’s a fitting continuation for long-time fans. It’s just that little bit too overwhelming for lapsed fans that are coming in fresh, but it does at least try to accommodate.

All I wanted to do was sit down and relive some classic Attitude Era matches—Undertaker vs. Kane, Mankind vs. The Rock—with my significant other. Simple, right? Not in WWE 2K23. What should’ve been a fun and nostalgic evening turned into a tedious grind through locked content and menus. The Showcase mode forces you to grind through tedious (with a cringey documentary style story) moves which are NOT beginner friendly. This game is just short of awful, not fun to play.

It is good for pass time with friends during work breaks. Some bad things: the parking arena mode is very bland. Hell in the cell **** with the cage in between

Overall, I love this game and – apart from Wargames – I can see myself playing this for hours upon hours without getting bored of it. The days of button-bashing your way through a WWE game are definitely over.

Even better than last year, WWE 2K23 shows the rising return of the series, building on last year's already solid foundation. With an excellent Showcase mode, an even better MyRISE and many additions to MyGM, it is a must-have for wrestling fans and capable of providing players dozens of hours of fun.

WWE 2K23 is the first major work born on the foundations laid last year. Curious to understand what Visual Concepts will offer us next year (the third year is always the most substantial), and and despite the small uncertainties found in the Showcase mode and in the nature of the MyFaction mode, we are enjoying the return of Wrestling towards the top of the sports video games.

If they’re still making these in 20 years, there’s gonna be a hell of a Showcase mode about it.

After a tumultuous few years of WWE releases, 2K and Visual concepts have finally been able to begin building on the solid foundations of last year’s game. WWE 2K23 isn’t a huge step up from 2K22 with long load times and a surprisingly unpolished Showcase Mode for John Cena, but the series has still shown growth, considering War Games is pure chaos and MyRise is much improved. The future is once again bright for WWE and 2K, and so WWE 2K23 should be celebrated by fans as though they’ve just won their first world championship.

WWE 2K23 is another successful chapter in the wrestling series' comeback story, but the red flags of annualization are starting to appear already.

Indeed, there is a lot of contents in this year edition but nothing really that much different to past games

So this years game is a step in the right direction. The myrise story is actually pretty good . Graphics are pretty nice . The gameplay could be better but that’s expected when your using an outdated game engine. Myfaction is playable to an extent. But the reason for the 4/10 is the horrific online servers . These servers are worse then last years game . So with how bad these servers are with the lobby’s crashing and myfaction just not working online . The single player modes can’t save this game from this review. When after how many patches ur servers continue to be horrible and online being unplayable. Then the price should not be 70$ it should be like 40$ at best . Because once again 2k releases another unfinished game . An I’d go as far as saying this is worse then 2k20’s release. Oh an I forgot to mention all the glitches and hackers that plague this game .
