WWE 2K20 had a disastrous launch last week, and 2K Sports has released the first patch to fixing many of the game's problems including graphics and gameplay.
Before WWE 2K20 was released, many previews and some reviews dinged this year's installment as an overall step backwards. The graphics were subpar compared to last year's, especially when it comes to hair physics, and the gameplay was boring at best and frustrating at worst.
Now, the first of hopefully many patches has released on PS4, PC and Xbox One. Check out everything included in WWE 2K20 Update. 1.02 below.

Prior to the release of this update, WWE 2K took to Twitter to address its followers regarding the product.
The official account tweeted, "We are listening closely to the feedback that's been shared regarding WWE 2K20 and are aware of the concerns some players are reporting. We're working hard to investigate these concerns and address them as necessary. We expect to have an initial patch ready in the next two weeks, with others to follow. Stay tuned to WWEGames social media channels for more information."
Hours after the update released at 8 a.m. EDT on Friday, November 1, players have begun documenting any changes they've seen. One notable graphical glitch was the entrance for Bianca Belair whose long braid didn't move as intended. But it seems that part of WWE 2K20 has been fixed.
Just days after release, many gamers asked for refunds on the title, citing it was an incomplete product. While some PlayStation owners reportedly received a refund, the same wasn't the case for Xbox One players.
WWE 2K20 is available now for PS4, Xbox One and PC.
