2K Makes a Multi-Year Deal For More WWE Games

​

​

2K and WWE have announced a multi-year extension of their partnership to continue creating WWE video games, with 2K Games maintaining the worldwide rights to the wrestling brand for years to come. This includes the WWE 2K series and 2K's successful mobile title WWE SuperCard.​

“2K’s partnership with WWE over the past three years has resulted in a successful and important addition to the Company’s portfolio of profitable franchises,” said 2K COO David Ismailer. “We are thrilled with the positive momentum of the WWE 2K series, including generating year-over-year growth, as well as the success of WWE SuperCard. We are very pleased to extend our partnership with WWE and look forward to many more years of collaboration.”​

That means that WWE 2K17 and subsequent instalments in the series are locked in for 2K Games, with developers Yuke's and Visual Concepts to remain on board. “2K’s leadership in authenticity, quality and overall brand dedication has been a perfect complement for WWE,” said WWE Executive VP for Consumer Products, Casey Collins. “Our continued partnership ensures WWE remains at the forefront of global video game brands as we continue innovating and publishing our offerings on multiple platforms.”​

 

EA sports should have them, not 2K.
