News about WWE 2K18’s release date on Switch “coming soon”
Posted on 7 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch | 8 Comments
Since we found out about WWE 2K18 for Switch, 2K Sports has kept Nintendo fans in the dark. The publisher hasn’t had a single update about the game since then. That’s caused all sorts of speculation due to retailers listing it in their circulars, online pre-orders being cancelled, and more.
The official WWE Twitter account says that Switch owners haven’t been forgotten. Additionally, news about a release date is “coming soon.” Until then, we’ll just have to wait for an announcement.
We haven’t forgotten about you, #NintendoSwitch fans! Info on the #WWE2K18 Switch release date is coming soon.

Nintendo says that, when combined with 3DS, Nintendo systems accounted for two-thirds of all video game hardware sold for the second month in a row. The US gaming industry achieved hardware sales of more than 1 million total units in October for the first time since 2011.
Regarding software, Super Mario Odyssey was the top-selling game despite the fact that it launched at the end of the month. Mario Kart 8 Deluxe and The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild placed at #10 and #11 respectively as individual games.
