2K Games has announced that WWE 2K24, this year’s installment of the WWE wrestling simulator, will arrive in the first week of March. The wrestling community counted down in thorough excitement to indulge in their favorite pastime.

The massive roster features more than 200 WWE superstars and legends including Steve Austin, The Undertaker, and André the Giant, etc along with current WWE superstars such as Cody Rhodes, Bianca Belair, John Cena, etc. However, for the fans of Becky Lynch, Christmas came early as the first look of her virtual avatar came out.

Popular Twitter handle WrestlingWorldCC released a snippet from the game that has wrestling fans talking. The wrestling community finally got to witness the virtual avatar of Becky Lynch. The RAW star has garnered a reputation for her natural charisma and immaculate ability inside the ring. She has ascended the ranks in the promotion and has etched her status as one of the greatest female stars in modern wrestling. Therefore, news surrounding her always makes the rounds. This time proved no different as the tweet gathered a lot of attention.

While 2K expected their fanbase to revel in joy, that wasn’t the case. Instead, the tweet left a sour taste in their mouths instead. Many fans claimed that they would prefer playing the previous edition of the game rather than the newer version. Passionate fans laid the blame on the game’s terrible avatar and design for taking such a stand.

Such reactions were not limited to the avatar of ‘The Man’ though, as previously fans went up in arms against the in-game avatar of Stone Cold Steve Austin after the release of the trailer. So it looks like 2K has a lot of rework to do before they launch the final product in March 2024. What did you think of the avatar? Share your thoughts in the comments.
