Show Intros Removed from MyUniverse Mode
Despite these exciting updates, WWE 2K25 will not feature the show intros in the MyUniverse mode. Bryan Williams, a developer at Visual Concepts, recently discussed the changes to the game, stating that the team considered bringing back old fan-favorite features. However, they determined that some players found these intros repetitive. While the intro cutscenes, which included pre-show pyro and music, were popular for enhancing the authenticity of the Universe mode, they will not be making a return this year. Williams did, however, leave the possibility open for future updates.
Fans React to the Decision
In past instalments, the intro sequences helped the mode feel more immersive and distinct from a simple exhibition. Fans on platforms like Reddit’s r/WWEGames have expressed disappointment over the decision, suggesting that the option to enable or disable the intros could have satisfied both camps.
WWE 2K24 also excluded the show intros, which upset many long-time players who cherished this feature. While the removal of the intros may not sit well with everyone, future updates and downloadable content for WWE 2K25 may bring them back if there is enough demand. The game is set to launch on March 14, coinciding with the build-up to WrestleMania 41 in Las Vegas, and it remains to be seen if the decision will affect the game’s reception.
