Wow. They wouldn't, would they? Would they?!

This isn't the new worry that some Twitter posts suggest. Patrick Gilmore skirted round the issue in his Reddit AMA, but did hint that 2K want to get things right on PS4 before jumping up to PS5 or Xbox Series X. The long and short of that tease is that WWE 2K22 might not land on current-gen hardware.

Think Cyberpunk 2077 here. CD Projekt Red's futuristic metropolis adventure is playable on Sony's latest, but it's not a "proper" PS5 title. Instead, the developers ironed out many of the complaints fans had with the experience on last-gen systems, and crafted a much smoother experience as a result.

2K might follow that path.

Is this ideal? Hell no. It sucks to imagine that the next WWE game will effectively be built for older hardware, but that's the system 2K's team would've started on when they began developing 2K20's must-deliver follow up. Stay tuned for more on this.
