WWE 2K15: Latest Info on Top Features, Roster List and Video Trailers

Chris RolingOct 14, 2014

WWE takes the world of next-generation consoles by storm soon when WWE 2K15 launches on Xbox One and PlayStation 4 on November 18th in North America.

As fans have come to expect from those at 2K Sports thanks to the superb NBA 2K series, the foray into a new generation with WWE has created one of the most hyped games of the year.

Not only is the game getting significant upgrades in the ring, but the graphics are getting a major boost, the wealth of modes and available superstars only continue to increase, and the soundtrack—something the globe looks forward to each year with the NBA 2K series—is shaping up to be something special, especially with the Doctor of Thuganomics involved.

Here is a look at the latest surrounding the hotly anticipated title.

Latest Info

MyCareer Mode

One of the best facets of 2K's annual NBA offering is making its way to the WWE game this year.

Fans who purchase the NBA standout each year know and certainly love MyCareer mode for its intricate behind-the-scenes look at the league and how relationships between players, coaches and the like develop and change rapidly over the course of a given season.

That said, the mode can be considered a bit strange. Dramatic cut scenes and unnecessary drama sometimes dilute the experience. Getting cornered by Carmelo Anthony for not dishing him the rock enough might be a thing, but it is still a strange thing to play out.

But read between the lines—that sort of interaction is a dream scenario for the WWE product.

Mike Johnson of PWInsider.com posted a press release from 2K Sports that details the mode, which has players start out as a scrub in the WWE Performance Center in Orlando, Florida. This mirrors the rags-to-riches NBA mode, and it also reflects the real-life path to stardom for many of WWE's talents.

Eventually players will work their way to the top and insert themselves into top storylines while interacting with their favorite wrestlers.

Credit goes to 2K Sports for continuing to make additions as the world of WWE continues to spin. The job has been especially hard this year thanks to a number of injuries to top guys like Daniel Bryan and Roman Reigns, so as WWE pumps out new stars, it is great to see 2K Sports is placing them in the game.

Fans will certainly find holes in the current roster despite its length, which is part of the fun of pro wrestling. The developers will certainly stay on top of things to ensure each notable superstar has a virtual representative.

Soundtrack Revealed

No matter if you love or hate (or love to hate) John Cena, the Doctor of Thuganomics is back.

The man himself revealed that he recently hit the studio with some of the juggernauts of the hip-hop world to craft what is sure to be a memorable soundtrack that holds its own when compared to its NBA counterpart:

The official track list is as follows:

All Day Wiz Khalifa & John Cena
Ready (feat. Future) B.o.B
Free (feat. Emeli Sandé & Nas) Rudimental
We Dem Boyz Wiz Khalifa
Wild Ones (feat. Sia) [WrestleMania 28 Version] Flo Rida
Bonfire Knife Party
Workin (feat. Alexander King) Big Smo
Ghost Mystery Skulls
Come On Over Royal Blood
1010
Breaks Wiz Khalifa & John Cena

This is an area where WWE has an advantage over other sports. The superstars are entertainers, meaning someone like Cena can pick up the mic and get involved with the video game on a more in-depth level without it hurting his credibility or the media labeling it as a distraction.

For fans, this is nothing short of a major win and another thing to look forward to as the game approaches. A feature-length soundtrack that incorporates favorite superstars is the proverbial cherry on top to what is sure to be a great overall package.
