"Ultimately these iterative upgrades will likely result in what I imagine will be a near-perfect wrestling game for fans of the series," my colleague Dale Driver wrote in his hands-on preview of WWE 2K24.
WWE 2K24 will be released on March 8 for PC, PlayStation, and Xbox. If you want to learn more about WWE 2K24, keep your eyes peeled during the week of IGN Fan Fest as we plan to share new details on the game ahead of its March release date.
