WWE 2K22’s official release date is Friday, March 11, but those who are willing to pay a little extra are able to get early access. By purchasing the $99.99 Digital Deluxe Edition or the $119.99nWo 4-Life Edition, fans can jump intoWWE 2K22right now. Unfortunately, those hoping to check out the game’s online features may be disappointed right now, as the servers appear to be down for many players.
TheWWE 2K22servers are experiencing significant issues as of Wednesday, March 9, with the problems acknowledged by the game’s official Twitter account. According to the tweet,WWE 2K22servers are down due to a “large volume of concurrent players.” Like is often seen with new games, too many people are trying to play online at once, and it’s essentially causing server congestion. However, theWWE 2K22developers are working to fix the problem and promise to release more updates as they’re available. The problems appear to be consistent across all platforms, so PC, PlayStation, and Xbox players are out of luck, but it’s unclear if allWWE 2K22players are having problems or if some are still able to play online.

While theWWE 2K22online servers are down, players will have limited access to the online game modes and features. This means thatWWE 2K22early access playershoping to battle their friends online are out of luck for now, but the bright side is that the game has many modes that do not require online connectivity.
For example, theWWE 2K22Showcase modeis a completely offline experience. This single-player experience has players reliving the career highlights of WWE legend Rey Mysterio, following him from his WCW days to some of his more recent matches against modern superstars. Like previous iterations of the mode, theWWE 2K22Showcase allows players to complete bonus objectives to unlock extra content, so it should keep fans plenty busy while they wait for the servers to come back online.
There’s alsoWWE 2K22’s MyGM modeto check out as well. While someWWE 2K22reviews have expressed disappointment in the unnecessary limitations and restrictions present in MyGM, those playing a full season will still have a lot to do, and it should be a fun time while it lasts.
