2K Sports appears to be taking the Switch version of WWE 2K18 seriously. When a fan claimed that the game would likely be based off an older release in the franchise from the Xbox 360, the official WWE 2K Twitter account noted that it’s “not based on previous gen versions”.

The tweet reads:

#WWE2K18 on #NintendoSwitch is not based on previous gen versions. Check the blog for more details! https://t.co/QYaNnO3xIz https://t.co/KhGobzCaAr

So its a custom downgraded port of the PS4 and Xbox One versions.

It's a custom upgraded port of the PS4/XBO versions. Upgraded by the portable mode. 

So it's an upgrade from the Wii version?

Could be a fun game to play with friends.  I haven't played a wrestlin game since N64 and PS1 days though.  I was pretty found of Power Pro Move Wrestling on PS1 and WCW vs nWo N64.

That depends if you consider the XBO version an custom downgraded port of the PS4 version

So its a downgrade of XBO which is a downgrade of the PS4 which is a downgrade of the PS4 Pro which is a downgrade of the XBO X which is a downgrade of the PC version.

This is an A+ shitpost.

It's not like WWE games have been pushing the envelope. I doubt there will be much compromise if any. I'm gonna make a bold prediction: Switch version sells best.
