According to the latest ringside report from 2K Games, WWE 2K26 is enhancing its MyGM mode with new strategic systems, premium live events (PLEs), additional general managers, and upgraded artificial intelligence ahead of the game's release on March 13. This positions MyGM as one of the most significant management simulators in the franchise.
One of the major structural changes noted in the report is the introduction of flexible starting budgets. Players can now begin with funds ranging from $3 million to $7 million, depending on the roster size and difficulty level selected. Additionally, brands can now support between 20 and 35 superstars, allowing for more booking decisions and long-term planning. This expanded roster capacity enables complex match cards for both weekly shows and major events.
Match variety has also been improved, as MyGM now includes multi-person formats, such as 6-way and 8-person matches, along with handicap bouts and matches featuring various stipulations. Players can now book Ladder Matches, Battle Royals, Inferno Matches, and even 3 Stages of Hell contests on a weekly basis.
Furthermore, the premium live event calendar incorporates both well-known WWE shows and newer concepts. Returning events include WrestleMania, SummerSlam, Hell in a Cell, Backlash, and Money in the Bank. Newly added or refreshed events feature Clash at Paris, Crown Jewel, Battleground, Evolution, Great American Bash, Halloween Havoc, Night of Champions, No Mercy, Worlds Collide, and Survivor Series: WarGames.
The report also mentions that the GM roster now consists of 20 selectable characters. New additions include Bobby Heenan, Stacy Keibler, and the Anonymous RAW General Manager, joining returning options such as Nick Aldis, Adam Pearce, Stephanie McMahon, Paul Heyman, CM Punk, Shawn Michaels, Xavier Woods, Tyler Breeze, Mr. Fuji, Eric Bischoff, Mick Foley, William Regal, Teddy Long, Sensational Sherri, Miss Elizabeth, and custom general managers.
For experienced players, an “Immortal” difficulty level will be introduced for an even greater challenge. With the inclusion of stars from the Monday Night Wars and the Attitude Era, WWE 2K26 aims to deliver the most detailed MyGM experience to date.
