One of the main reasons for WWE 2K20’s failure is the contentious decision to cut relations with long-time developer Yuke’s. It meant that Visual Concepts, the in-house studio, was left to complete a partially produced title by itself. Yuke’s had been in charge of the series from its debut on PS1 in the year 2000 as WWF Smackdown.
Visual Innovations is still in charge of WWE 2K22, albeit with a fresh face in charge. Patrick Gilmore, the former boss of Electronic Arts’ popular Highest Honor series, is on board as showrunner and was active on Twitter over the summer of 2020, soliciting fan ideas.
