It shouldn’t really come as a surprise to anybody, but WWE 2K24 has been announced. There’s not all that long to wait for it, either: it’s arriving on consoles and PC early in March.
This year, 2K aims to make WWE 2K24 the best entry in the series yet thanks to a wealth of gameplay improvements and more. There are new match types including Ambulance Match and Gauntlet Match, while Backstage Brawl now has 4-player support and more interactive environmental elements.
On top of that, players will find a wealth of improvements in modes such as MyGM, MyRISE and MyFACTION, as well as a roster of over 200 WWE Superstars to fight as, seven real WWE referees, and a wealth of new weapons which you’ll now be able to throw.
What’s really piqued our interest about WWE 2K24 is 2K Showcase… of the Immortals, which is set to put players in control of iconic moments throughout 40 years of WWE history. As ever, the mode will mix gameplay with live-action footage, adding to the immersion. And as players made their way through the mode they’ll unlock content in accordance to their performance.
Watch the announcement trailer for WWE 2K24 below:
Launching on PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S and PC, three versions of WWE 2K24 will be available. The Standard Edition, which will feature Cody Rhodes on the cover, will be available from 8th March. By picking up either the Deluxe or Forty Years of Wrestlemania Edition, however, players will net themselves 3-day early access, allowing them to play from the 5th.
Bianca Belair and Rhea Ripley will feature on the cover of the Deluxe Edition, which includes the game’s season pass, Nightmare Family pack, and more. The Forty Years of Wrestlemania Edition comes with everything in the Deluxe Edition, as well as the Forty Years of Wrestlemania pack which includes additional attires for multiple wrestlers. On the cover of that will be original artwork celebrating some of the most iconic WWE superstars including The Undertaker, Hulk Hogan, and The Rock.
