Tweaks were also made to WWE 2K24’s online gameplay, namely in regards to the 8-person War Games match that was introduced in last year’s WWE 2K23. There were also adjustments made to the Create-a-Superstar and Create-an-Arena modes, allowing fans to build their own wrestlers and rings without worrying about technical issues.
