WWE 2K14 Release Date Confirmed, No Next Gen? + Playtesting!

Recommended Posts

2K Sports today released their Fourth Quarter and Fiscal Year 2013 Results which included some new details on WWE 2K14.

First up, we have a confirmed release date for the game, October 29th (As previously revealed by Amazon).

October 29th is a Tuesday, which points towards a US release date, with the European release date likely to be 3 days later on Friday 1st, November.

The second peice of news comes from 2K's release schedule which only lists WWE 2K14 for Xbox 360 and PS3, meaning there's no Wii version announced and no mention of next-gen consoles.

It could be argued that the lack of next-gen consoles is because 2K are waiting for next week's Xbox Reveal, but if they were, the consoles would be listed as "TBA" like NBA 2K14.

Based on these details it looks like we wont be getting a next-gen WWE game this year, but that's not too surprising as there's only been a short period of time for 2K to develop the new game and it means the team can concentrate on the current consoles and squash any bugs prior to release.

Speaking of squashing bugs, there's a WWE 2K14 playtest planned for next week in the US which various US based members of the WWE Games community have been invited to.

Hopefully with the playtest taking place next week it wont be long before some official news is released, although don't expect anyone to release details form the playtest as they'll all be under non-disclosure forms to keep details under wraps.

WWE2K14....... I'M SOO Glad it's not 4 NEXT-GEN consoles because, PS3 is probably a test console to see if it's a big hit. They might make it 4 PS4 & XBox 720, but, I doubt that will ever happen though.

Seems like we always get an October 29th release. I can tell you from talking with Bryan Williams that Kane finally has a new chokeslam coming to wwe 14.

This better has to be the f*cking best animation of a move EVER, since Kane debuted I've waited for a good animation, I've waited 15 years...This animation better has to kick-ass

Correct me if I'm wrong here, but usually THQ released info like screens, videos, and news on their WWE games much sooner than 2K sports has thus far on WWE2K14. I'm wondering why they have waited so long to do this? Are they trying to surprise us? Or are they ashamed of this year's game being rushed? That being said, I hope 2K can fix all the mistakes that WWE 13 had. The glitches were atrocious and it was in everything from creating[freezing up on creation screens], gameplay, and online mode. You cannot get online for CC or even to have a simple online match without massive glitching and sometimes even total screen freezing. This is totally unacceptable especially when you consider that some of the older games didn't glitch nearly as badly. Also, I'm glad someone brought up the animations. A lot of them have been outdated or outright wrong for years. The chokeslams, for example, have never been right for Undertaker or Kane. It is always some overexaggerated chokeslam where the opponent flips at the end instead of landing on their backs. It's these kind of details that make or break a game and 2K should try to fix these things. I understand 2K cannot do miracles with this being their first WWE game and all, but they should at least attempt to fix glitches instead of being massively lazy like THQ previously had been. Maybe we'll get an update from 2K at this year's E3 and WWE2k14 will improve where WWE 13 left off.
