We've got a date for the next WWE game! It was announced last night on WWE Raw that WWE 2K25 will release for Xbox Series X, Xbox Series S and Xbox One (along with other platforms) on March 14, 2025.

Along with the trailer you see above, it was confirmed that Roman Reigns will be the cover star this year, also appearing in the new 2K Showcase - "The Bloodline’s Dynasty". The Undertaker is the star of the special "Deadman Edition".

The trailer teases that you'll be able to go "beyond the ring" on current-gen consoles with the addition of something called The Island too, which is an interactive online world that's built around a series of WWE themes. It seems as though it resembles something like The City in the NBA 2K series at first glance.

"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. Available only on PS5® and Xbox Series X|S."

Beyond this, there's the return of all the usual modes with various new features, such as Universe mode which is finally adding Promos once again, along with MyGM which is officially adding online multiplayer support for the first time.

There are plenty of new gameplay features as well, such as intergender wrestling, chain wrestling and barricade diving, along with two new match types in the Bloodline Rules Match and the Underground Match.

Pre-orders begin today for WWE 2K25, and if you buy any version digitally, you'll get a free copy of WWE 2K24 for that platform as well. Better yet, picking up one of the more expensive editions will net you a week of early access.

You'll find more details about WWE 2K25 along with some screenshots down below.

"New updates and gameplay advancements include 2K Showcase: The Bloodline’s Dynasty, the first retelling of the Bloodline saga and an interactive celebration of the legacy of the extended Anoa’i wrestling family, new match types and stipulations, such as the Underground Match, Bloodline Rules Match and Intergender matchups, the return of Chain Wrestling, a new MyRISE experience, and much more."
