2K begins removing MyRise exclusive characters from WWE 2K22 Community Creations

videogameschronicle.com:

Following reports that WWE 2K22 players were able to upload MyFaction exclusive characters (such as classic Triple H) to the game’s Community Creations suite, 2K has started removing similar characters that are locked to the game’s story mode, MyRise.

In MyRise, players take a character through the process of becoming a WWE Superstar, along the way facing many familiar faces. However, there are several characters that don’t appear as playable wrestlers in the other modes of the game.

Players had found a way to upload these characters to the community creations, but it appears that 2K has started removing them, according to the user who has uploaded the majority of them.

According to WhatsTheStatus, 2K has removed some, but not all, of these characters. He commented on the removal in a tweet, saying: “My advice is to get everything you need because they might be all gone soon.”

This may be due to the fact that although the character models can be uploaded to Community Creations, all of their clothing items apart from underwear are automatically removed and new clothing can’t be added (resulting in, for example, commentator Byron Saxton wrestling in his pants and socks).

VGC reported last week that players of WWE 2K22 have found a way to unlock the game’s MyFaction exclusive characters for use in other modes, including classic versions of Triple H and Shawn Michaels.

However, at the time of writing, 2K hasn’t taken those models down, despite them being tied to the microtransaction-heavy mode.
