WWE 2K23 has announced a big upgrade to MyFaction Mode for the game's upcoming release. WWE 2K23, which will be released on March 17, promises to further improve upon the gameplay of its predecessor, WWE 2K22.
MyFaction Mode is a game mode that was first introduced to the WWE 2K franchise in WWE 2K22. It involves players collecting character cards, creating a faction of characters, and using their teams to compete for MyFaction Points and tokens. It was generally received with positive reviews, which is most likely why it will be expanded upon in WWE 2K23.
In WWE 2K23, players will be able to compete in MyFaction Mode online, which is a change from the game mode being only offline in the previous game. The new online Quick Play mode allows players to put their factions to the test against friends and other players, further mimicking the factions that are present between wrestlers in real-world professional wrestling.
WWE 2K23 also announced some other changes and additions coming to the game, like the addition of new playable characters, including the rapper Bad Bunny. It will also include a limited edition “Stone Cold” Steve Austin card, with the details of how to get the card being announced in a future update. WWE 2K23 will also have regularly scheduled live events, which will be for offline play, and the Pink Diamond tier, a higher battle tier which will be released after the game's initial launch.
The WWE 2K games have come a long way, and WWE 2K23 is a promising addition to the franchise. With the release of WWE 2K22, the franchise has appeared to have learned from its mistakes and recovered from its failure with WWE 2K20, which was released with serious technical issues and was widely disliked by fans of the games. WWE 2K has been listening to its players, and appears to be on track to release another great game.
However, there are still some improvements fans are hoping to see and certain aspects of the game that fans disagree with. There are disagreements over certain rankings, like the rankings of Becky Lynch and Bianca Belair, and calls for further customization and improvement of game modes besides MyFaction Mode, like Universe Mode. Overall, though, WWE 2K23 has been highly anticipated and has not received any overwhelmingly negative feedback for the updates it has been making.
WWE 2K23 will release on March 17, 2023, for PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
