WWE '2K15' Release Date, Complete Roster List, New Modes & Features Details
Wrestling fans and video game enthusiasts have been waiting for 'WWE 2K15' to launch in October with a new roster, improved graphics, stellar gameplay, showcase mode, and a soundtrack that stands a chance to make it the best wrestling game to date.
The complete list of wrestlers available in the game was released by the WWE 2K's official website. Gamers will be able to play and battle with the likes of AJ Lee, Batista, Big E, Big Show, Dolph Ziggler, Hulk Hogan, John Cena, Natalya, Rey Mysterio, "Stone Cold" Steve Austin, Summer Rae, Sting, Tyson Kidd and more.
The most intriguing Superstar to join its ranks is that of former NWA, WCW and TNA champion, Sting, Bleacher Report claimed. After Sting's lack of appearances in previous games, it was assumed that he was not going to appear in any future WWE game.
However, with this new release, Sting will be playable as two characters, the black-and-white Sting from the late '90s and the colorful surfer Sting from the early 90's.
The new MyCareer Mode was added to the game, where gamers start off with the WW NXT, the faux-reality show featured in the game. The players can then start their '2K15' career as an NXT rookie and hopefully earn their spot in the full roster to join the likes of Daniel Bryan, Brock Lesnar, Goldust and more as a WWE Hall of Famer.
WWE Superstar and 'WWE 2K15' cover star John Cena curated the soundtrack, according to Bleacher Report. The soundtrack featured mostly rap and hip-hop songs, but with a few rock and country mixed in. It also contained two songs featuring Wiz Khalifa and Cena himself.
A 'WWE 2K15' commercial aired in Monday Night Raw. It was "intense," as Cena was featured reciting the poem "Do Not Go Gentle Into That Good Night" by Dylan Thomas.
'WWE 2K15' will be available on Xbox One and PS4 on Nov. 18 in North America and Nov. 21 in Europe, and on Xbox 360 and PS3 on Oct. 28 in North America and Oct. 31 in Europe.
