“Representing the culture of lucha libre as the cover Superstar for WWE 2K22 is a moment of great pride for me,” said Rey Mysterio. “I’m looking forward to sharing the stories behind the big moments of my career with a dedicated community of players and connecting with WWE fans in a whole new way as they play through my 2K Showcase.”

“Throughout his career, Rey Mysterio has staged multiple comebacks to prove his resiliency time and time again, and through it all, has cemented his legacy as a living legend of sports entertainment,” said Alfie Brody, Vice President of Global Marketing Strategy at 2K. “In that same spirit of resiliency, WWE 2K22 strikes back with a slew of upgrades and community-requested features to give players complete control over the WWE experience.”

WWE 2K22 is promised to look, feel, play, and “Hit Different” thanks to a rebuilt gameplay engine, updated controls, and better visuals. The engine, combined with WWE 2K’s most spectacular graphics to date, gives the franchise an unprecedented level of realism. Players will feel the strain and satisfaction of every punch, kick, and smash thanks to a revised and easy control scheme, as well as an immersive presentation and varied camera angles.

Popular game modes, such as Rey Mysterio’s 2K Showcase, have been updated to include new features and improvements, allowing players to experience the iconic moments from Mysterio’s most famous battles. Players in MyRISE choose their own pathways to superstardom.
