8 Predictions For The Upcoming WWE 2K23 Announcement

8. The Release Date

There is almost zero chance that 2K Games won't reveal the release date when they announce WWE2K23.

The two-year gap between WWE2K20 and 22 was absolutely the right call for the ailing franchise, but the series' publishers will want to assure WWE that normal business has resumed and annual releases are back on the cards. As such, expect the upcoming reveal party to pencil in a launch date for this year's entry.

As to what that date will be? To the shock of no-one, expect a similar launch window to last year's release, i.e. sometime in mid-to-late March. As well as reassuring 2K Games's investors that the WWE2K franchise is once again a steady source of income, Vince McMahon will likely want to maximize as many revenue streams as possible before WWE's impending sale to bolster the company's selling price.

Also, releasing a WWE game when WrestleMania hype is at its fullest is such a forehead-smackingly, obvious-in-hindsight idea we can't believe it took until last year for it to happen.
