Get ready, wrestling fans! WWE 2K24 has just dropped a new trailer unveiling 18 of the thrilling matches that will be featured in this year’s Showcase mode, marking four decades of WrestleMania.
After the success of WWE 2K22’s Rey Mysterio-themed Showcase and WWE 2K23’s journey through John Cena’s iconic defeats, WWE 2K24 is taking us on a nostalgic ride with its Showcase of the Immortals. While earlier trailers hinted at what’s to come, the recent one solidifies 18 of the 21 matches players can anticipate when the game hits the shelves on March 8.
In addition to the previously revealed 10 matches, wrestling enthusiasts can now look forward to iconic face-offs like Randy Savage vs. Hulk Hogan from WrestleMania 5, Bret Hart vs. Roddy Piper from WrestleMania 8, and the legendary Steve Austin vs. The Rock clash from WrestleMania 17. But that’s not all – WWE 2K24 promises an unforgettable lineup, including memorable battles involving Eddie Guerrero, Charlotte Flair, John Cena, Bray Wyatt,
and more.
The confirmed matches include an array of title showdowns and historic clashes, making it an absolute treat for fans. From Randy Orton vs. Seth Rollins to the fiery Triple Threat Match between Charlotte Flair,
Ronda Rousey, and Becky Lynch, WWE 2K24 is set to deliver an immersive wrestling experience.
The developers, Arrowhead, have assured fans that despite the inclusion of a free and premium battle pass with items affecting gameplay, WWE 2K24 is steering clear of the ‘pay-to-win’ stigma. Johan Pilestedt, Arrowhead’s CEO, emphasized, “You have to earn the right to monetize,” ensuring players have the option to support the title without feeling pressured to do so.
WWE 2K24’s Showcase of the Immortals is shaping up to be a celebration of wrestling history, blending nostalgia with cutting-edge gaming. With the anticipation building, wrestling enthusiasts can’t wait to step into the virtual ring and relive these iconic moments once again.
