According to YouTuber VikingSizeGamer, WWE 2K22 may introduce NBA 2K-inspired microtransactions to the game. Since offering its VC (virtual currency) microtransactions, the NBA 2K series has been plagued by controversy, and, if the rumor is true, the same microtransaction format could be coming to WWE 2K22. WWE 2K22 will release in March 2022 just before WWE\u2019s annual WrestleMania event. The series skipped a year in 2021 after the lackluster performance of WWE 2K20. The game is rumored to be bringing back GM Mode for the first time since 2008, and a full reveal is expected in January during the Royal Rumble pay-per-view. The game will also compete for the first time with the upcoming AEW game, developed by longtime WWE collaborators Yukes. WWE 2K22 microtransactions spotted in storefront art VikingSizeGamer tweeted, \u201cA WWE 2K CDN hosted by 2KSports is publicly accessible and shows illustrations and 3D renders for VC in a folder labeled 2K22\/Store. Purchases in #WWE2K22 look like they\u2019re heading the NBA route with VC available in bulk up to 450,000, roughly worth $100. More in a video soon.\u201d The tweet also shows art reportedly from WWE 2K22\u2019s digital store depicting chests of golden coins that represent the in-game currency that players can purchase in exchange for real money. If genuine, then this will be the first WWE 2K game to feature VC bought with real money, with WWE 2K19 having the currency earned through gameplay.

In a 2019 interview with Trusted Reviews, discussing introducing microtransactions to 2K\u2019s NBA series, Senior Producer Rob Jones described virtual currency as \u201can unfortunate reality of modern gaming.\u201d He then went on to defend adding microtransactions to 2K\u2019s games explaining that they exist to help players save time. He said, \u201cWe know nowadays that most people don\u2019t have the patience to work their way to the top. They just want to be there right away. So, you know, we look at it as, oh it\u2019s an opportunity for us to allow you to skip the grind, but then if the grind is too long, like some people felt last year, they\u2019re going to sit there and they\u2019re going to go \u2018well, you knew the grind was too long, to begin with.\u201d Read More: Logan Paul finally wins over WWE fans &#8211; While these comments were directed towards 2K\u2019s NBA series, if the company\u2019s position is the same in 2022, then VikingSizeGamer\u2019s leak is likely to be accurate.
