Gallery: Here’s how every WWE 2K22 wrestler looks compared to 2K20
WWE 2K22 is out later this week, and we’ve put together this comparison gallery showing how 2K has upgraded the appearances of each wrestler in the game’s roster.
WWE 2K22 developer Visual Concepts has been using detailed scanning technology for a number of years now in its NBA 2K games. However, wrestling game fans were hugely critical of the superstar likenesses in WWE 2K20, saying many of them looked sub-par.

Using this mode, we were able to zoom closely into the faces of each character in the game, allowing for a detailed comparison.

In every image in the gallery below, the face on the left is taken from the Xbox One version of WWE 2K20, while the face on the right is from the Xbox Series X version of WWE 2K22.
Review code for WWE 2K22 only recently arrived and we’re working hard to get you a WWE 2K22 review as soon as possible. Until then, here’s the gallery so you can judge for yourselves how much the
