‘WWE 2K14’ Gets Release Date and Nothing Else!
2K Games has announced that its first foray into a wrestling ring with WWE 2K14, which will hit stores on October 29th for the Playstation 3 and Xbox 360.
When THQ filed for bankruptcy, many of its franchises were up for grabs, including the WWE line of games. The future of the series was anyone’s guess until 2K grabbed hold of the license, bringing a sense of gaming legitimacy better than a returning Brock Lesnar ever could.
But it’s hard to be excited when we’ve seen nothing of the game, and that’s what I really want! Rumors suggest that The Rock (Dwayne Johnson?) will be on the cover and the game will still be developed by the Japanese crew at Yukes, so I’m thinking that things won’t change much gameplay wise. 2K promises that the game “will combine the studio’s signature gameplay with 2K’s commitment to authenticity.” Considering 2K is one of the leaders in sports gaming, the idea of their presentation within a WWE package sounds exciting, even if it’s not really a “sport.”
