I created a custom post type for a press page that mimics the blog page and I'm trying to order the page chronologically from newest to oldest.

I created a custom WP_Query to pull the press post type, but I'm not sure how to get it to order by date; I'm not sure what to use as the Types shortcode (if that's even correct). This is my code so far.

$args = array(
    'post_type' => 'press',
    'orderby' => 'date'
  );
  $press = new WP_Query( $args ); ?>

Please make sure your custom post type is using slug "press",

And try this:

$args = array(
    'post_type' => 'press',
    'orderby' => 'post_date',
    'order'=> 'DESC'
  );
  $press = new WP_Query( $args ); ?>
