Hello WWE 2K26 community! We hope you've been enjoying Early Access.

Regarding Ringside Pass: This is a brand new feature and like anything new, will require some time and attention to get it just right.

We've seen the player experience not being what's intended, so we're implementing some changes with Patch 1.04 today*, including:

  • Custom Matches will now award RXP.

  • RXP earn rates for matches increased by 20%

  • Match Complete: 25 (current) > 30

  • Match Win Bonus: 85 (current) > 105

  • Minimum match time requirement added for Match Win RXP rewards

  • If a match is completed faster than 60 seconds, players will receive completion RXP, but not additional win bonuses. We know you're enjoying making Eric Bischoff tap out but let's give poor "Eazy E" a breather

  • You can read the full details HERE!

Overall, we hope these changes support a wider variety of match types and playstyles and help keep the experience fun and rewarding for everyone. And as a thank you to those who jumped into the ring with us early, we’re providing Early Access players with the locker code MZFGCPCR for 32,500 VC, which can be redeemed in-game by 9 AM PT on March 12th.

Also coming with Patch 1.04:

General

  • Stability and Performance improvements

  • Addressed reported concerns over earnable RXP

  • Addressed reported concerns over Game Pass subscriptions being required to access The Island and MyFACTION

  • Addressed reported concerns over 2K account linking occasionally not working

  • Addressed reported concerns with Dominik reward mask

  • Addressed reported concerns of various attacks not working as intended

Island

  • Addressed reported concerns over performance issues when playing The Island

*Note that while these updates will go live on PS5, Xbox Series X, and Steam today, Nintendo Switch 2 updates will be live on March 30th.

We appreciate your support and we look forward to seeing your continued in-game accomplishments because The Show Never Stops.
