Brian Mazique had a chance to bounce some of the most compelling questions off a team of WWE 2K22 developers. We talked about MyGM, Universe mode, gameplay, the creation suite, and more. Take a look to learn a few things you might not have known about WWE 2K22. We have seen some more recent gameplay from WWE 2K22, and it’s closing in now on that March 11 release.
Brian had about two hours to explore MyGM mode in WWE 2K22 in order to put together some hands-on impressions. After going through a draft and setting up a brand, he came away with some positives, negatives, and a good idea of what to expect from the full version of the mode when WWE 2K22 releases on March 11. We also have a recent Q&A with the WWE 2K developers to help you get a handle on how things are shaping up.
We posted our review of Grid Legends last night, and we now have a video here to showcase every car that’s available in the game at launch.

With so much turmoil going on with the real MLB right now, it’s been a breath of fresh air just getting to play the MLB The Show 22 tech test over the last couple days while putting together some impressions and thoughts. The MLB lockout has not diminished my excitement for the latest Show, and while there is some turmoil within the Show community as well as it relates to franchise mode, that also has not stopped me from looking forward to this year’s game.
After racking up over 800 hours in last year’s game, I was looking forward to what this tech test had to offer. While the tech test doesn’t provide the full MLB The Show 22 experience, it did give me a chance to see what is new both superficially and under the hood. For those who did not try out the tech test, SDS gave us an early look at the graphical enhancements, new difficulty levels, co-op mode, and online and offline play.
It has been almost two years since the release of Metalhead’s Super Mega Baseball 3, the third rendition of the wildly popular baseball game. Since the release back in 2020, a lot of surprising changes have taken place over at Metalhead, with the merger and acquisition by EA being the most notable. That said, we know plenty of people have somehow still never played Super Mega Baseball 3, but now it’s on Game Pass (and EA Play) so you should try it out.
Coming off the first Feature Premiere where the new co-op mode was explained, today was all about MLB The Show 22 on the Nintendo Switch. This is the next big venture for SDS as it tries to complete its multi-platform evolution (we are all still hopeful for a PC build one day). There was not a ton of new info if you’ve been following along since the Switch reveal a couple weeks back, but let’s cover what was here.
I believe Codemasters and EA know the direction of the last Grid game did not resonate with the masses as they had hoped. When you factor in that the current racing scene is loaded right now with titles of multiple disciplines, it means changes, additions, and corrections needed to take place for the Grid franchise to find its footing again with Grid Legends. This brings us to my Grid Legendsreview.
