WWE 2K releases a new game each and every year and 2019's offering is finally here. After just two days on the market, it seems as if most of its players are asking if 2K can take it back and try again. While most WWE 2K games tend to feel like repackaged versions of what has come before, WWE 2K20 feels like a regression, and that's putting it mildly.

Where to begin? The graphics, the glitches, the online lag making the game unplayable. There's a lot wrong with WWE 2K20. So much wrong that some players are asking for refunds, and in Sony's case many of those refunds are being granted. Others are at least having a little fun with it. Search #FixWWE2K20 on Twitter right now and a cascade of hilarious snapshots and videos will fill your feed. Take a look, it'll pick your spirits back up if you just dropped $130 on the SmackDown anniversary edition of the game.

Go To Yuke's & Beg Them To Come Back

Most players are wondering how on Earth things could have gone so wrong. Yes, a game looking more or less the same as a title released a year prior makes sense, as annoying as it always is. But for a franchise to get worse, and to this degree. What happened? Well, Yuke's happened. More accurately, Yuke's didn't happen. Up until WWE 2K19, the developer had tag-teamed the annual releases with 2K. Not this year though, and the end result goes to show how pivotal Yuke's was to the whole operation.

It might seem crazy to suggest on day three of a game's yearlong lifespan, but 2K might need to forget 2K20 and start focusing on 2K21. Judging by the lack of patches thus far, it might well have already done that. The game needs to be overhauled from top to bottom, and 2K might even consider trying to bring Yuke's back in, or at least a developer with a track record in wrestling games. Improve the graphics but more importantly, make the game playable. History dictates that if a game is good, most players will forgive its lackluster appearance.

Take A Year Off, We'll See You In 2021

At this point, 2K might benefit from stepping back and considering whether it's worth releasing a new WWE game every single year. It's very possible that one of the reasons 2K20 is so bad is due to the fact its creators were working to unrealistic deadlines. If 2K decided to release a game every two years, its games would surely benefit. Yes, the rosters wouldn't be up to date, but that can be fixed via patches or even DLC packs. If players were being treated to better wrestling games, and only forking over $60 once every two years, chances are they'd be more than willing to pay $10 every few months for new Superstars and arenas.

What should also be considered at this point is whether 2K is the right developer for the job. THQ handed the reins over to 2K in 2013 and since then the games have been widely critiqued. Depending on contracts and the like, it might be time for WWE to give THQ a call and beg them to come back, or at least ring around a few other developers and see if anyone is interested in taking a run at next year's offering. Whatever they came up with couldn't be much worse than WWE 2K20.

The unfortunate truth is that nothing is going to change, at least not between now and next October. WWE 2K20's sales will be fine, and most of us will return a year from now and hand over our hard-earned cash for a copy of WWE 2K21. The shakeup the genre is looking for might well come in the form of a debut game from fledgling wrestling promotion AEW. Until then, players should be prepared for more of the same.
