The latest patch for WWE 2K25, version 1.06, has officially dropped — bringing with it a batch of targeted fixes that address spelling errors, visual inconsistencies, and bugs related to superstar entrances. Although the game launched with praise from both critics and fans, lingering technical issues have kept the development team busy with frequent updates.
Polishing the Experience — One Patch at a Time
WWE 2K25 was hailed as a major improvement over its predecessors, offering a more refined wrestling experience. However, the game’s polish has been dulled somewhat by persistent graphical glitches and immersion-breaking typos — the most infamous being “Hustle, Loalty, Repect” and “Phenomenal Ons” on superstar attire. These oddities have fueled speculation that AI-generated textures may have been used during development. Whether or not that’s the case, the team has begun correcting these errors gradually, with patch 1.06 continuing the clean-up.
Correcting Design Missteps
One of the most noticeable visual corrections in update 1.06 builds on patch 1.05, which previously fixed AJ Styles’ tights. This time around, even more visual oddities have been addressed, including issues in MyGM mode, character banners on The Island, and player likenesses that didn’t quite hit the mark.
Entrance Issues Addressed
Superstar entrances — a fan-favorite part of WWE games — also received some overdue attention in the new patch. Players had reported that Bray Wyatt ‘23 was using an incorrect entrance in certain match types, while The Rock ‘01 had a motion animation that failed to unlock properly. Both of these issues have been fixed in the current update.
Creation Suite Updates
In the creation suite, players had been facing problems with custom videos appearing locked. Patch 1.06 has unlocked these for those affected. The Rock’s missing entrance motion — also tied to the Create-An-Entrance system — is now functioning as intended.
Ongoing Stability Improvements
As is standard for most game updates, patch 1.06 also includes unspecified stability and performance improvements. While no detailed changelog exists for these backend fixes, players can expect smoother operation across game modes. However, many in the community still remain curious about what exactly these general updates entail.
