2K Showcase: The Bloodline’s Dynasty
The all-new 2K Showcase, hosted by the “Wise Man” Paul Heyman, celebrates one of the most iconic wrestling family dynasties – The Bloodline, and the Anoa’i, Fatu and Maivia families. Players are invited to relive, change, and create the history of The Bloodline through iconic historical moments. Relive key victories including Yokozuna vs. Hulk Hogan at King of the Ring ‘93, and Rocky Maivia vs. Hunter Hearst Helmsley at RAW in ‘97. Change history and bring more glory to The Bloodline by avenging key losses such as Rikishi vs. “Stone Cold” Steve Austin at No Mercy 2000, and the fateful Roman Reigns vs. Seth Rollins title match at Royal Rumble 2022. Create history with fantasy match-ups, including the Wild Samoans vs the Dudley Boyz.
The Island
An interactive world made up of four districts built around different WWE themes. The Island offers players the opportunity to explore and challenge other players while vying to earn a WWE contract by impressing “The Original Tribal Chief” Roman Reigns. By completing quests, taking on challenges, competing in live events, earning unlockables, and upgrading and customizing MySUPERSTARS through multiple storyline chapters, The Island allows players to step outside the ropes and “Rule Beyond the Ring.”
