Here’s 2K’s plan to get you to give their next WWE game a chance

After years of middling reviews for their wrestling sim games culminated in a disastrous launch of WWE 2K20, both WWE and 2K Studios decided to pause and re-assess rather than attempt to push out a WWE 2K21.

Promotion of the franchise’s return began last month at WrestleMania 37, which gave us a glimpse of Rey Mysterio and a promise the new edition would “Hit Different”.

Along with that new slogan came a vow to be more transparent throughout the development process, something that seems to be starting today with this logo sent to websites like ours...
