Posted on 6 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch | 8 Comments
Since the week that WWE 2K18 was announced for Switch, 2K has only committed to a general “Fall 2017” release. However, some had hoped that it would be out later this month alongside other platforms. This was somewhat due to marketing materials that surfaced at stores over the past few days pointing to the Switch edition possible landing on October 17.
For its part, the “Fall 2017” release window still sticks. 2K is not giving a more specific launch timing beyond that.
The official WWE gaming Twitter account reconfirms:
Fall 2017 is correct.

This ties in with another element of Super Mario Odyssey. Players can use coins to purchase all sorts of outfits and hats, including a wetsuit, Mario’s look in Mario Maker, and even a golfer’s uniform resembling what he wore in NES Open Tournament Golf.
