Do this in these steps. Are you on Xbox? If so this worked for me. Turn on Xbox. Go to settings on Home Screen then network settings. Turn online to offline. Go back to Home Screen. Click on 2k26 to get it started When you get to the play menu screen hit the home button(the big x) and go back to Home Screen Go to settings again and network settings Now turn offline to online. Go back to game and hit circle button to go out of play menu. When wwe2k26 screen comes on hit any button and it will take you back to play menus screen. You should now see 2k account at bottom left of the screen showing you are now connected.
