WWE 2K22: 10 Improvements On 2K20 You Need To Know About
2. Superstar Specific Universe Mode
2K may never produce an out-and-out WWE 'Story Mode' again. Yes, Rey Mysterio's career goes under the microscope by way of this year's 'Showcase', but there's no option to run through one of those old SmackDown vs. Raw modes as someone on the active roster.
Universe Mode might've just offered up some solace then.
This time, 2K are letting gamers step into the shoes of one superstar of their choosing in Universe. That means you'll only play their matches, live their storylines and reshape their career. Do this, and you won't be micro-managing every aspect of Raw, SmackDown, NXT and beyond.
Some players will be into this focused approach, if only 'cause it's the closest this series has come to a superstar-specific 'Story Mode' in quite some time. Hopefully, 2K take elements from MyCareer and stick them in here too. Even if they don't, this definitely counts as an improvement over the Universe suite in 2K20.
