January 3 is expected to be a sad day for fans of WWE 2K, as it marks the scheduled shutdown of the online servers for WWE 2K22. There was much anticipation surrounding WWE 2K22 before the game was released. It was the initial WWE 2K game following the calamitous WWE 2K20, and rumours suggested that WWE viewed the game as a crucial test for 2K Sports. If WWE 2K22 did not fulfil expectations, there was speculation that the WWE video game licence might be given to another company, such as EA, a competitor of 2K.
Nevertheless, WWE 2K22 has received favourable feedback and is widely seen as a significant comeback for the well-liked wrestling game franchise. WWE 2K22 received a favourable response from both fans and critics, and it also achieved impressive sales, securing the WWE video game licence for 2K Sports in the coming years. WWE 2K22 was succeeded by WWE 2K23, which again garnered positive feedback. 2K Sports has had a successful streak with WWE video games in recent years; therefore, it is particularly upsetting that they have chosen to close WWE 2K22’s online services so quickly.
In September of this year, it was revealed that the servers for WWE 2K22 would be closed on Wednesday, January 3, 2024. Given that it has been less than two years since WWE 2K22 was initially released, it is understandable that fans were upset. Regrettably, the choice to close the online servers for WWE 2K22 remains unchanged. Therefore, anybody desiring to experience the game’s online features must do so before January 3.
When will the WWE 2K22 servers be closed?
The closure of WWE 2K22’s online servers is quite disheartening. Although fans will still be able to enjoy WWE 2K22’s offline features, they will no longer have the option to play matches online or download community creations. These are essential parts of the WWE 2K22 experience, and it is disheartening to see them removed less than two years after the game was released. It could also cause fans to lose confidence in upcoming WWE 2K games. Why should people invest time and money in a game if its online features disappear before it’s two years old?
The post that announced the shutdown of WWE 2K22’s online servers concluded with a mention of WWE 2K23, which understandably upset fans. Many people are concerned that WWE 2K23 will face a similar outcome shortly after WWE 2K24 is released. However, it is uncertain at this point.
