WWE 2K18 Switch release incoming, editions detailed

Plus we know how much space you'll need if you want to download it.

Wrestling fans looking forward to grappling with this year's WWE 2K18 on Switch don't have long to wait, as the game is heading to Nintendo's hybrid console tomorrow, December 6. Those who pre-order the game, or who purchase it digitally before December 13 will also get two playable versions of Kurt Angle (the "American Hero" persona from 2001, and his ECW "Wrestling Machine" persona from 2006).

The Switch version of the game can be purchased from retailers as per usual, but if you want to download the title then you'll need to make sure you're already equipped with a spare microSD card that has more than 32GB of space available. There are also a bunch of DLC options, which you can bundle together and grab for $30, or purchase individually. See below for details:
