The WWE's debut on Netflix has truly been a landmark moment, igniting a surge of excitement and engagement for the company. Now, the heat is set to intensify as the iconic 2K series of wrestling simulations makes its way to mobile via Netflix Games this Fall. The so-called Netflix Era for WWE is poised to reach new heights with this addition.
For wrestling enthusiasts, the 2K series needs no introduction. Starting with WWE 2K14, this franchise has been a dominant force on store shelves, standing shoulder to shoulder with giants like Madden and FIFA. Whether it's the highs or the lows, when it comes to featuring WWE Superstars, the 2K series is the definitive choice.
Now, fans can live out their wrestling booking dreams right on their smartphones. While specifics are still under wraps, top star CM Punk has confirmed that the 2K series is heading to Netflix Games. From this Fall, you'll have the chance to experience the intensity of the series in the palm of your hand.
It appears that this won't be a new standalone entry in the series. The information we have indicates multiple games, hinting that older titles might be added to Netflix's catalog. This move would surely delight fans, as the 2K series has made a strong comeback in recent years, earning renewed acclaim despite occasional mixed critical reviews.
Wrestling is no stranger to the mobile platform, with both WWE and the up-and-coming AEW releasing various spin-off titles over the years. However, the inclusion of the 2K series on Netflix Games could herald a new era, bringing console-quality gaming and prestige to the platform's catalog.
