WWE 2K23’s first DLC pack is releasing tomorrow, and a major patch is coming to the game ahead of it. While the DLC will add five new superstars – the three members of Hit Row and the Steiner Brothers – this patch makes a couple of minor additions but is mostly about bug fixes. While we already know the patch notes, we don’t know exactly when this patch will be released. However, you can expect it to drop in the next 24 hours, before the DLC releases.
We’ll give you the full WWE 2K23 patch notes for PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X/S, Xbox One, and PC.
WWE 2K23 patch notes for update 1.08
The biggest highlight here is the addition of Damage CTRL’s faction entrance. The trio of Bayley, Dakota Kai, and Iyo Sky is an official team in the game and clips of their entrance were shown in trailers, but it was mysteriously missing from the game.
It has now been added, but unfortunately, it won’t be available in Universe mode, as trios entrances are disabled in that mode. Many fans thought this was a bug, but it was recently confirmed that it was intensional, although the lack of a reason why has left many fans frustrated.
