We are less than a week away from WWE 2K24 early access. Everything about the next installment from 2K looks magnificent from the epic roster to all of the new match types. So you can step through the ropes and enter the ring as soon as possible, here you will find how to preload WWE 2K24 early access along with its download file size for PS5, PC, and Xbox.

The WWE 2K24 roster list has been fully revealed, and there are over 200 wrestlers comprising of the past and present, along with the stars of tomorrow in NXT. As if over 200 wrestlers weren’t enough, there’s also the Season Pass DLC packs that include CM Punk in the very first bundle.

If you want the Season Pass comprising all the DLC, you will want to pre-order the right edition of the game. And, if you pre-order, you will be able to preload the game ahead of launch allowing you to make your in-ring debut the very second the game unlocks.

How to preload WWE 2K24 early access

You must pre-order any digital edition of WWE 2K24 on PS5 or Xbox to be able to download. The option to preload is now available on Xbox, meanwhile, you will be able to preload early access from March 3rd and the Standard edition from March 6th on PS5.

Unfortunately, we don’t know if the game will be available to download ahead of unlocking on PC for Steam. There wasn’t the option to preload on Steam for 2K22 or 2K23, so it seems unlikely to happen with 2K24.

To get early access, you must pre-order either the Digital Deluxe edition or the Forty Years of WrestleMania edition. The early access release date is March 5th, meanwhile, the Standard edition launches three days later on March 8th.
