WWE games over the years have seen many developers. Yuke's, a game development company that has been developing games for WWE for over two decades with THQ. When 2K bought the rights to make WWE games in 2013, they brought Visual Concepts and Yuke's together to create the games. The two developers worked together for five years, creating five games from 2K14 to 2K19.

In 2020, 2K announced the end of their collaboration with Yuke's. They also mentioned that Visual Concepts would be the sole developer of the 2K series going forward.

“WWE 2K20 will be developed by Visual Concepts, who have worked with Yuke’s on the development of the series since WWE 2K14. As we’ve continued to invest in the WWE 2K franchise, we’ve seen the Visual Concepts team deisplay incredible passion, talent and commitment to the future of the series. We thank Yuke’s for their years of partnership and are excited to see what the Visual Concepts team brings to the franchise moving forward.”
