Online Lobbies Return in WWE 2K20

Online Lobbies Return in WWE 2K20

A Legendary wrestler once said, “To be the man, you got to beat the man.” As the release of WWE 2K20 grows closer, Ric Flair’s words hold even more true with the current WWE landscape in flux. Since the game’s announcement, WWE and 2K have created unique and comical ads to promote the game’s October 22nd. 2019 release. The latest ad features Ric Flair, Stone Cold Steve Austin, Sting, HBK, and Hulk Hogan debating who was the man during their generation while discussing Becky Lynch being “The Man.”

THQ and 2K have announced that WWE 2K20 will welcome back an old friend; players will have the opportunity to create lobbies. This announcement came alongside news that MyPlayer mode would be enhanced while welcoming new daily match challenges. WWE 2k20 is designed to bring wrestling fans together. For the first time ever, WWE 2k’s My Career mode will feature a dual-gender career. Players will have the opportunity to change between wrestlers freely. Female wrestlers will have the opportunity to spotlight their talent in MyCareer Mode. Below, we are including the official press release from 2K games, but reading further into, WWE 2K20 looks to separate the divide between genders and create an intergender wrestling experience. WWE 2k20 will be available to play on Xbox One, PlayStation 4, and Window’s PCs on October 22nd. How will the WWE draft affect the WWE roster?

WWE 2K20 Press Release

Create a Lobby
If you have an exact online multiplayer match in mind, creating a lobby is the way to go. Select from a wide variety of match types and rules with up to six players. Choose the arena, Superstar gender, and even toggle the restriction to only allow default WWE Superstars (a.k.a. Fair Play). You can start out in private mode to invite friends and then open the remaining slots to the general public if you prefer. Once in a lobby together, everyone can voice chat as they select Superstars and the lobby creator makes decisions on the match at hand. Players will now have full visibility on how the match is coming together.

Get in Quickly
If you’re less picky about what kind of match you want to play, you can browse currently available lobbies that only need one or two more participants and jump right in. Or use the search feature to filter by preference. Even easier, select Quick Play to be slotted into ready-to-go matches automatically.

My Player Updates

MyPLAYER Evolution
As previously announced, both male and female MyPLAYERS are part of MyCAREER. This extends to Road to Glory and MyPLAYER Towers as well. You create both male and female MyPLAYERs with different styles (one can be a brawler and the other a high-flier, for example), experience pools, progression trees, and creation part unlocks. This consistent pair can level up and unlock items throughout all three of these modes.

For the first time ever, any special creation parts you unlock through playing MyCAREER, Road to Glory, and MyPLAYER Towers are also available in the general Create-a-Superstar mode. On top of that, you can export the appearance of your MyPLAYER out to the general character creations as well!

Road to Glory and MyPLAYER Tower fans will be familiar with the process of earning stars to enter special pay-per-view events. These Road to Glory events now include female matches for the first time, in addition to male matches.

Online Challenges

Daily Refreshed Match Challenges
The new Tonight’s Match feature in Multiplayer places you in a new match every day that rotates through match types, rules, genders, and arenas to make it simple to constantly try something new.

The Road to Glory Featured Match of the day is similar to Tonight’s Match, but also includes potential Triple Threat, Fatal 4-Way, and 6-Man (or woman) matches. These will regularly toggle back and forth between male and female matches so both of your MyPLAYERs will get regular rotation.

Tonight’s Match, Road to Glory Featured Matches, and daily MyPLAYER Tower challenges (single player) will all incorporate elements from the new WWE 2K20 2K Originals post-launch downloadable content*, whether you’ve purchased them or not. For example, once the first package, WWE 2K20 Originals: Bump in the Night, releases, you may see matches taking place in the Wyatt Swamp Arena or Cemetery Brawl Arena. Or you might face FrankenStrowman one day in a MyPLAYER Tower daily challenge. You never know what kind of 2K Originals content might show up any given day for all players with online multiplayer access to enjoy.
