Okay, so I wanted to mess around with the run-in feature in WWE 2K23, you know, where you can have someone interfere in a match. I remember this being a thing in older games, but I couldn’t find it anywhere in the menus for Universe mode this time around.
Trying to figure it out
I started a new Universe, picked a show, and simulated a few matches. I went into the options to edit the matches, thinking the run-in settings would be there. Nope, nothing.
I spent a good hour just poking around every menu, checking every setting. I even tried setting up rivalries, thinking maybe it was tied to that. Still no luck. It’s like they just totally forgot to put it in the game, which is a bummer because it was a cool way to create some drama and storylines.
What I found out
After some digging around online, I found out that they took out the interference options for Universe mode in 2K23. Apparently, it’s because they changed the engine for the MyRISE mode, and for some reason, that meant the run-in stuff didn’t make the cut.
Conclusion
So yeah, it sucks that you can’t have run-ins in Universe mode anymore. It’s one of those little things that added a lot of fun and unpredictability. Maybe they’ll bring it back in a future update or the next game, but for now, we’re stuck with just regular matches in Universe mode. It feels like a big miss, to be honest.
Here are a few things I tried, just in case anyone else is going down this rabbit hole:
- Starting a new Universe: I thought maybe it was a save file issue.
- Editing matches: I figured the option would be in the match setup.
- Checking all settings: I went through every menu I could find.
- Setting up rivalries: I hoped it was tied to the rivalry system.
None of these worked, so there you have it. No run-ins in Universe mode in WWE 2K23. A real shame, if you ask me.
