Predicting WWE 2K25’s Release Date

by

As a long-time WWE gaming enthusiast, I can confidently say that the anticipation for the annual release of WWE 2K has become as much a part of my calendar as the actual wrestling events themselves. The franchise has certainly had its ups and downs over the years, but with each new iteration, there’s always a renewed sense of hope and excitement.

The break between WWE 2K20 and WWE 2K22 served as a fresh start for the series, allowing Visual Concepts to rethink and refine essential aspects like features, mechanics, animations, and overall gameplay and stability. This transformation has propelled the franchise forward significantly. Similar improvements were observed in WWE 2K23 and WWE 2K24, and fans will likely anticipate more of the same for WWE 2K25.

Currently, the upcoming game “WWE 2K25” is quite anticipated, despite there not being much new information about it. This is because it’s an annual franchise, and the publisher, Take-Two, has acknowledged its existence. Their recent financial report hints at a release date before March 31, 2025, which aligns with the pattern of previous entries in the series, all of which have been released in March. So, while we can’t pinpoint an exact release date for “WWE 2K25”, we can narrow it down to sometime within the March timeframe based on past releases.

WWE 2K25 Release Date Will Be March 2025, But We Can Narrow It Down Further

WWE 2K22, WWE 2K23, and WWE 2K24 Release Dates

  • WWE 2K22: March 11, 2022
  • WWE 2K23: March 14, 2023
  • WWE 2K24: March 8, 2024

worth mentioning is that March 11th, 2022 falls on the second Friday of the month; March 14th, 2023 lands on the second Tuesday; and March 8th, 2024 also happens to be the second Friday. Therefore, it’s reasonable to expect that WWE 2K25 will likely occur either on the second Tuesday or the second Friday of March 2025. This could potentially be either March 11th or March 14th, 2025. However, these dates may change slightly, but if they don’t, a Tuesday or Friday in March would make the most sense for the release. Possible options include the second Tuesday or the second Friday of any March thereafter.

  • March 4
  • March 7
  • March 11*Most Likely*
  • March 14*Most Likely*
  • March 18
  • March 21
  • March 25
  • March 28

That said, there is one possible wrench in this plan. News regarding each WWE 2K entry since WWE 2K22 has come out around the Royal Rumble, and the Royal Rumble (calendar date-wise) is taking place later than it ever has before. Between its inception in 1988 and the latest Royal Rumble in 2024, it has always taken place in late January. Royal Rumble now takes place on February 1. Other than it being a little jarring, this really isn’t a major change and it’s practically the same weekend as before, but it’s worth noting for any WWE news. WrestleMania 41, for example, is even taking place just a little later than usual.

It appears that the upcoming Royal Rumble event won’t likely impact WWE 2K25, though there’s still a slight chance. Regardless, the game is scheduled for release in March 2025, which could be on any of the mentioned Tuesdays or Fridays.
