In past WWE 2K games, Stamina wasn’t something that players needed to worry about. But things changed since WWE 2K22, as players needed to look out for their character’s in-game stamina, which affected the gameplay.

With WWE 2K23, the developers took the matter to another level. Stamina plays a more vital role in the game. So players can’t simply pull off flashy moves on repeat. In this game, lowering stamina could also damage a player’s in-game character.

4. OVW Characters have shown up

Those who follow WWE must know about NXT, which many believe to be the best youth development brand to form the WWE stars of the future. But before the popularity of NXT, it was the era of Ohio Valley Wrestling, commonly known as OVW. Every WWE icon from the 2000s has come from OVW.

2K Sports finally brought OVW characters with WWE 2K23. So players would be able to play with the likes of “The Prototype” and “Leviathan”. For those who don’t know, these are the names that WWE legends John Cena and Batista used to start their pro-wrestling careers.

3. Showcase Mode for John Cena

The Showcase Mode has always been the highlight for every WWE 2K title. This game mode allowed players to play through the career of a legendary wrestler. In the last edition, fans relieved the career of WWE icon Rey Mysterio.

As for WWE 2K23, the wrestling fans got the opportunity to play through the career of the “man whom you can’t see” and 13-time WWE Champion John Cena.

2. Get ready for some exciting MyRise stories

Like Showcase Mode, MyRise is another one of the most famous modes in WWE 2K23. In this mode, the players get to create their characters and follow an original story of a rookie to become a legend.

But what makes this year’s MyRise more interesting is that the mode’s storyline differs on the player’s in-game character’s gender. For the male character, the story is about becoming the next big name in WWE. While for the female character, it’s about following in the footsteps of their aunt, who would be a Hall of Famer.

1. Creator Suite is there

The Creation Suite is possibly the most famous mode among the game’s fans. Fans can design everything from a custom venue to an event to a wrestler and even a championship in this mode. WWE 2K23 offers even more options for players to showcase their imagination.
