2K Sets March 2027 Shutdown for WWE 2K25 Online Services

The fixed date reflects 2K's broader practice of announcing end-of-life windows across its sports catalog.

Overview

  • Online features for WWE 2K25 will end on March 14, 2027, per a publisher notice, while offline modes such as Play Now, Showcase, MyRISE, MyGM, and Universe will remain playable.
  • WWE 2K25 joined the PlayStation Plus Extra catalog in September 2025, leaving roughly 18 months for subscribers to use its online elements.
  • The Switch 2 version launched on July 23, 2025, giving Nintendo players a shorter online window; its physical release is a code-in-box.
  • 2K has also scheduled retirements for other titles, including NBA 2K24 (December 31, 2025), NBA 2K25 and TopSpin 2K25 (December 31, 2026), PGA TOUR 2K23 (February 28, 2027), and WWE 2K24 (January 5, 2026).
