WWE 2K26 Universe mode updates and Community Creations details have officially dropped, and this year’s Ringside Report makes one thing clear, player creativity is being pushed to the front of the ring.
Narrated by four-time Women’s World Champion Bayley, the latest deep dive outlines major upgrades to Universe mode, alongside expanded creation tools that give players more control than ever.
WWE Draft Finally Lands in Universe Mode
After years of fan demand, the WWE Draft makes its debut in Universe, players can now trade Superstars across show rosters over the course of a week, reshaping RAW, SmackDown or custom brands however they like.
Drafts can be created, edited or scrapped entirely, giving sandbox players full booking power.
The new Universe Wizard streamlines setup, allowing players to select weekly shows and PLEs, assign champions, lock in rosters and choose a starting month, it’s a cleaner way to kickstart long term storylines without hours of menu diving.
Other additions include a new Watch Show mode, expanded Money in the Bank cash-ins, and extra Promo types. Each show now supports up to eight titles across men’s, women’s, tag and intergender divisions, plus two MITB briefcases.
Self-Promos can trigger hero or villain turns, division swaps, self-imposed challenges or even show departures, open Challenges now allow spontaneous title defences, while the new Post-Match Interview lets winners call their next shot, losers can interrupt for a handshake, staredown or all out brawl.
Community Creations Goes Bigger
Creation players are eating well in WWE 2K26, Create A Superstar slots double to 200, while Create An Image jumps to 2,000.
Body morphing now allows mixing and matching body parts for more unusual builds, and new two tone hair blending adds visual depth.
Create an Arena supports LED barricades, expanded apron and announce table customisation, plus an advanced entrance timeline feature covering champion, double champion and MITB motions.
Four editions of WWE 2K26 are available for pre-order now here.
