Nintendo’s website listing for WWE 2K18 offers up some new information about the game’s download. Similar to 2K Sports’ other recent title 2K18, you’ll need quite a bit of free space.

The digital version of WWE 2K18 requires a microSD card with at least 32GB of free space. That’s in addition to 1GB on the system memory. The microSD card has to be inserted before beginning the download.

We still don’t actually know when WWE 2K18 is heading to Switch. Thus far, 2K has only said we can expect it sometime this fall.

WWE 2K18 is packed with all sorts of neat filters. One of these is an 8-bit filter, which attempts to emulate the style of games from way back in the day.

– Late 90’s Filter
– 1990’s Filter

WWE 2K18 is partnering with KFC in a somewhat strange way. In the game, players will be able to create a custom character based on Colonel Sanders. Sanders, of course, is the founder of the fast food chain restaurant and is essentially the official mascot.

Here’s a video promoting the partnership:

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:

It would be tough to deny that WWE 2K18 has an expansive roster. Two more wrestlers are joining the mix, though only as DLC.

The Hardy Boyz are confirmed to be joining WWE 2K18. Both will be available by purchasing the Deluxe Edition, Season Pass, or their individual pack. The first two items should be distributed on Switch.
