The latest installment in the popular WWE game series, WWE 2K25, has officially launched on Nintendo Switch 2. However, a significant feature that wrestling enthusiasts often cherish is conspicuously absent. For many dedicated fans, the ability to create and share custom-designed superstars is a core attraction of the franchise. Players quickly noticed that the Switch 2 version of the game lacks the crucial image-uploading functionality.
While this limitation is certainly disappointing, there`s an underlying technical reason: WWE 2K25 does not support cross-platform community creations. Despite the recent DLC pack featuring notable figures like the late ECW legend New Jack, the newly acquired Penta, and Japanese women`s wrestling icon Bull Nakano, Switch 2 players will be unable to import custom logos or textures for wrestlers not already included in the game`s roster. Consequently, players on the Switch 2 platform will be restricted to using only the default in-game images.
Although this might not deter all players, for those seeking the most comprehensive experience, it could feel like a notable disadvantage.
This release marks the series` return to Nintendo consoles after an eight-year gap, with WWE 2K18 being the last title available on a Nintendo platform. Fans might recall that the Nintendo port of WWE 2K18 was widely criticized and is often considered one of the weakest entries in the franchise`s history.
Publisher 2K has implemented specific restrictions on user-generated content, and the game`s moderation team is generally swift in removing any inappropriate material, whether it be offensive images or problematic user profiles. Nevertheless, due to the immense volume of daily uploads, isolated instances of objectionable content may occasionally slip through momentarily.
In our comprehensive review, WWE 2K25 was lauded as one of the strongest titles in the series. This commendation was largely due to its expansive creation suite, the introduction of new match types, and an impressive roster boasting over 300 current top stars and legendary figures, even featuring some iconic NBA personalities.
