The latest WWE 2K23 patch, Patch 1.10, adds two new characters, free to everyone who has a copy of the game, as well as a returning fan-favorite feature, along with gameplay updates, bug fixes, and balancing.

Candice LeRae and Mia Yim join WWE 2K23 Roster

Two characters: Candice LeRae and Mia Yim, join the WWE 2K23 roster, free of charge. The two women wrestlers have been rumored to be added to the game, and now they arrive ahead of the upcoming DLC Pack, Pretty Sweet Pack, on the traditional patch before the DLC launch. Both Candice LeRae and Mia Yim will immediately be playable as soon as players update their copies of the game to version 1.10.

Candice LeRae joins as a Cruiserweight Striker with a 78 OVR rating. 2K adding Candice might mean that WWE really is seriously considering having The Way come together again, especially now that former NXT Women's Champion Indi Hartwell has just been called up to the main roster. Expect The Way faction entrance to become available in a future update.

Meanwhile, “Michin” Mia Yim will probably be compatible with the OC as well, as it wouldn't make sense for Visual Concepts to release her right before the release of her stablemates without making sure that she will fit in right with them. Mia Yim joins as a Cruiserweight Striker with a 79 OVR rating.

Patch 1.10 Has a returning Fan-Favorite Feature

Patch 1.10 also sees the return of the Tired Finishers feature which makes wrestlers behave differently later on in a match when a tired version of the finisher is available. Some of the finishers that have this enabled include Sweet Chin Music and Pedigree. This definitely adds to the game's immersion and heightens the drama in matches played out in the game. The feature makes use of the new Fatigue System in WWE 2K23, and will automatically be enabled when players update to the latest version. It appears that this feature cannot be turned off unless players can turn off the Fatigue System altogether.
