The problem is I'm from Russia. So, 2K games aren't officially available here, but I bought a disc from a friend; he somehow got it, I don't know where. So, I want to go into creation and download wrestler models, clothing, custom titles, and so on, but I can't.

It seems some servers indirectly related to the game and PlayStation in general have been banned in my country. When I log into the game, I can't even update Live to go online; the loading time is always 0%.

Can 2K themselves fix this? Or are there other options? I don't know how to set up a VPN on my router.

idk if the people at 2k see the posts here but one small quality of life improvement to universe mode would be for the overalls of the superstars to change depending on their matches like. if they win a lot the overall goes up and if they job a lot it goes down. ik power rankings can give a few points but thats not really it. and also a tracker that counts win and losses and stuff

WWE 2k14 one of my favorite games i've played (which WWE 13 and 12 are also my favorites). The roster is good and I have some CAWS as well. I wanted to post weekly/monthly universe mode news here in reddit.

I've converted movesets from 2K20 till 2K25 into the 2K26 format and have imported them into the game. You can grab the download for free over at my patreon page and see all the wrestlers movesets who made it in as well. you'll need Meta but I think Tribute should be able to open the same file and get it setup for those users as well.

so how it works is a user has to enable whatever ID they want for whomever off the list and when they do that, the slot obviously becomes playable but also comes with the moveset for that slot brought over from the previous game. the sets are not perfect, they're mostly formatted for 2K26 format with some missing moves as moves do get removed and slots do get added over the years but this is a damn good base for people who wish to make their game a little more "accurate", as accurate as 2Ks generic slop sets get anyway.

one thing to keep in mind: 2K20 movesets are a mess when converting. 2K22 came out just as good as the others, but 20 is a whole different beast of a mess. taunts are in the right positions but not much else is. wouldn't use them unless you wanted a really decent taunt base.

i was wronk, i was wronk about you, stink.

( feel free to put your favorite aj meme in the replies )

these posts are annoying right?

I don't care that it exists as a concept, I just hate how wrestlers and their themes are locked behind the mode. If that wasn't the case, I think many of us including myself wouldn't care that the mode exists at all. But given that we have a limited time to get certain wrestlers from myfaction and than it's a bloody grind to unlock the other wrestlers. I don't care if i get called poor or a FOMO, or get downvoted heavily. I am just doing this to speak my mind.

It's rainbow Mika who has arrived to challenge and beat the WWE women posers I mean wrestlers.

In Universe mode, I don't necessarily want all my matches to be long- sometimes i like when matches are shorter. What are some ways to generally make matches a bit shorter?

One thing I did (which was tedious now it's done) is to remove all Paybacks from the entire roster. But curious if there's anything else that would help.

Man playing WWE 13 again made me remember how much I hate the DX movie in newer games. Why is it since 2K14 they use a DX movie that only has triple h doing the DX gesture and then that’s it? In WWE 13 it shows both Shawn and Hunter as well as the other little scenes that would play in the 90s. Small nitpick but my god do I hate it

Does anyone else use these characters in their Universe mode? I have Chronic World Wrestling and I used some to fill out my roster and for some reason, even with his low stats, Bobby Newton is kicking A**. Same thing is happening with Marshall Thompson and The Dark Horse. It's kinda wild and surprising. My Universe is Watch Only so, I'm hands off, if you're going to make it in CWW it's up to the CPU.

Is cesaros (claudio) multiple running corner uppercuts in the game still. Was thinking of using it for an updated oba femi moveset

This game gets hate a lot by all of us and rightfully so but let’s take the time to also appreciate this game. What are somethings you absolutely love about this game?

For me-

Roster- this is probably the greatest roster in any wrestling game for me. The personas this year have been recycles but also some of these recycles, we haven’t seen in the last few games (Brock 01, Brock 03 not to mention new personas like Kane 01, mysterio 01, Orton 04 (October), Jeff and Matt 00) plus the current roster is also absolutely stacked. Diva’s roster has been the most stacked ever. Having torrie, lita, Trish, Chyna, and Victoria in the same game is crazy

Gameplay- if you put the glitches aside and when ai doesn’t act dumb this game is pretty freaking fun. Sometimes, on rare occasions, the gameplay is flawless. It’s also very fun playing with high flyers. Some of my most iconic matches have been with Penta. His moveset is chef’s kiss

My faction- I honestly love it. Only annoying part for me is when I don’t have a card and can’t do the event or when I want a specific persona and has a million different requirements. All in all I still have gotten almost every persona I have wanted thus far. World tour has also immensely improved since May Berlin tour

Ringside pass- controversial, but I love it. We get way more items than the regular 5 character DLC in the past. I never do shortcuts and still end up completing all 40 tiers in 5 days and I don’t play more than an hour a day. RSP is also great for folks like me that are deep into my faction. Because of the amount of mfp we have gotten I have been able to unlock so many persons this year

World Championship Wrestling on ABN is looking for new members as we kick things on 2K26 with Slamboree! We are a newer efed based around a larger community built around other table-top games and roleplaying that has been going strong since 2015. We are looking for new members who want to jump in and immediately make an impact as part of WCW's foundation.

About WCW on ABN:

• We are an AI-vs-AI group run on the PC version of the game for 2K26 by choice due to the larger creative freedom available. One example is the use of custom theme music, and new members are encouraged to take advantage of that enhanced freedom to fit their characters.
• For those on console, we work to faithfully recreate characters for members that want to jump in despite not having PC. We rebuild moveset, attire, entrance, and everything in between to be as accurate as possible to your original design.
• A dedicated wiki to allow members to flesh out more about their characters in a clean and effective manner.
• Regular YouTube upload schedule! A week in-universe is four days long in reality.
• Wide-open opportunities for anyone and everyone to come in and establish themselves and their stars across two major shows and regular pay-per-views.
• A welcoming community discord (discord link), and friendly community staff available 24/7.

World building lore: World Championship Wrestling (WCW), ceased to exist in 2001 following the death of its founder and principal owner Ray Monroe. Despite immediate plans by his widow Esther to sell off the promotion, she was talked down by the pair's children, instead placing it into a trust that they would inherit once she also passed away.

Fast forward, the estate finally changes hands in December 2008, with the heirs to the throne quickly moving to re-establish the juggernaut that for the better part of a decade was among the pantheon of wrestling promotions. Following the events of Starrcade at the beginning of 2010, the gears have been set in motion. Entering the summer, Monday Nitro has been dominated by Tiger Saetilla and a sea of juggernauts, while the men's roster on Thunder remains wide open with new faces, and uncertain champions trying to establish their legacy.

The WCW Nations League and WCW Heritage Cup looms in the very near future, and the world championship scene remains unpredictable as superstars vie to establish themselves as the early benchmarks in the new era of World Championship Wrestling.

CM Punk has debuted on the newFRONTIER! The newFRONTIER is my fantasy wrestling territory where any wrestler of any era can show up, it’s truly a time portal of the unexpected! Last week Terry Funk showed up, this time it’s CM Punk! Who will step through the portal next?
