After many complaints from fans about the WWE 2K26’s new Ringside Pass system, 2K has made some changes.
In their latest patch/update for the game:
Starting today, all current and future players will be granted enough RXP for Ringside Pass Season 1 to unlock 20 tiers. Please allow 24 hours for this RXP to be added to your Ringside Pass Season 1 progress after logging in;
All players who have installed, linked a 2K account, and played the game prior to April 14, 2026, at 11:59 p.m. PDT will also receive enough RXP for Ringside Pass Season 2 to unlock 20 tiers when Season 2 launches;
Required RXP per tier will be reduced from 800 to 625 RXP for Season 2, and required RXP per tier will not increase for future Seasons. The values of consumable RXP Boosts will also be increased;
Starting with Season 2, all four DLC characters in future Ringside Pass Premium Seasons will be available in Tier 1, and automatically available to unlock in the Ringside Pass Menu for Premium Pass players when those respective Seasons launch.
Alongside these updates, Patch 1.07 is now live for WWE 2K26, bringing gameplay improvements, balance adjustments, and new content across all platforms. This update includes a wide range of improvements and fixes across the game, including:
Adjustments to the Stamina Meter:
Adjusted Stamina costs to increase more gradually over the duration of a match so players are less likely to become Winded early on;
Reversals now cost less stamina when you are fighting more than one opponent;
An increased damage threshold to avoid instant DQ as a result of attacking a Referee;
The addition of several new moves, including Chelsea Green’s Cradle Flatliner and Blake Monroe’s Glamour Shot Finisher;
Enhancements to The Island, including the ability to Prestige directly from the Training menu, and a limited-time 2x VC event for PvP matches (March 30–April 15).
“We appreciate the passion, time, and feedback you continue to share with us. We hope you enjoy these changes and take the opportunity to catch up on the home stretch to The Grandest Stage of Them All!,” wrote the developers.
