The wrestling landscape has been in a “unique” place since the start of 2024, and just when you think you know where a promotion is going, something happens, and things go quickly off the rails or in a direction you never expected. Almost every major promotion has had a shakeup or two over the last six weeks, and so talking about something stable like WWE 2K24 is a rarity. Thankfully, that’s what we’re talking about right now. Specifically, we’re talking about one of the stars in the game, Chelsea Green. While her “arrival” in the game might not seem like much, it’s actually a journey several years in the making.

The popular WWE 2K24 community creator WhatsTheStatus has been banned following claims of him violating the game’s terms of service. In addition to recreating the thrills of a standard episode of Raw or SmackDown, WWE 2K24 gives players a chance to create their own action with custom wrestlers, arenas, and even championship belts. These creations can then be shared with other users through WWE 2K24’s online community, resulting in a vast virtual library of downloadable content for any squared-circle enthusiast to enjoy.

World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) has terminated the working contracts of five wrestlers from its roster of superstars, including former WWE Champion Jinder Mahal (real name Yuvraj Singh Dhesi) and his two companions from the all-Indian-descent faction Indus Sher. Mahal became the 50th man to hold the title of WWE Champion on May 21, 2017, and is also the first wrestler of Indian descent to win that title.

World-famous YouTube streamer and current WWE United States Champion Logan Paul is having a baby with his fiancee Nina Agdal. From his humble beginnings on the now-defunct social media platform Vine to becoming a sensation on YouTube and the sporting world, Logan Paul has always had a knack for drawing headlines. Some of his most recent stories include claiming to have rare UFO footage and responding to recalls of his popular energy drink Prime, but many of Logan Paul’s latest noteworthy endeavors, aside from his YouTube videos, seem to be centered around his thriving WWE career.

At WWE's WrestleMania 40, American YouTuber IShowSpeed made an appearance apparently to promote Prime, an energy drink co-owned by Logan Paul and KSI. However, the event took an unexpected turn when Randy Orton, one of the biggest WWE stars, delivered his signature move, the RKO, on IShowSpeed, slamming him onto the announce table for interfering in his match against Logan Paul and Kevin Owens.

Visual Concepts has released update 1.05 for WWE 2K24, available for fans to download across all platforms right now. WWE 2K24 has enjoyed a strong start, launching to mostly positive reviews during an incredibly hot period for WWE and professional wrestling in general. The game has been praised for its graphics, wealth of content, and massive roster of fighters, with even more characters to come.

It seems as though WWE 2K24 potentially cut 14 wrestlers from the roster, as evidence of their existence in the game's files has been discovered. The recently-released WWE 2K24 has a massive roster of wrestlers for fans to choose from, from old-school grapplers to modern-day stars. But even though the WWE 2K24 roster is admittedly rather massive and comprehensive, there are still some wrestlers that didn't make the cut for one reason or another.

WWE 2K24 has released a brand-new update that users can download right now. WWE 2K24 was released earlier this month to mostly positive reviews, with critics praising the in-ring action and staggering amount of content. However, there is always room for improvement, and as such, developer Visual Concepts has released multiple post-launch updates for WWE 2K24 to address the game's lingering issues.

The contents of WWE 2K24's Pat McAfee DLC pack have been confirmed, and it includes names such as Pat McAfee and Boston Connor, among several others. Since the WWE 2K24 Season Pass announcement, fans have been looking forward to the arrival of additional playable Superstars such as The Dudley Boyz, Jade Cargill, Carlito, and The Great Muta, among others. However, one announced pack has caused some controversy for being the vaguest of the bunch.

A WWE 2K24 player recently recreated the legendary Sabu using the game’s character creation suite, but the superstar himself seems less than thrilled at the result. Sabu was a pioneering member of the original Extreme Championship Wrestling promotion, impressing fans with a hardcore style that blended high-flying acrobatics with the brutal use of weapons like steel chairs. He has appeared in numerous wrestling video games over the years, such as ECW Hardcore Revolution, the Legends of Wrestling series, and Backyard Wrestling: Don’t Try This At Home.

Fans have rediscovered a 9-year-old article published on the official WWE website back in 2015 that had Cody Rhodes on the list of potential superstars who would one day be the «next John Cena.» Cody Rhodes is currently one of the biggest stars in WWE, with such incredible fan support that the audience rejected a match between Roman Reigns and The Rock and willed Rhodes' WrestleMania rematch with Reigns back into existence.

WWE 2K24 has implemented a hotfix that solved a frustrating issue affecting many Steam users who pre-ordered the game. Additionally, WWE 2K24 just received one of its first updates after releasing on March 8.

WWE 2K24 has just released a new update, making several quality-of-life improvements. Visual Concepts’ last couple of WWE video games have been constantly praised for their refined in-ring action, and WWE 2K24 is continuing this with good reviews so far. Fans who pre-ordered one of the game’s digital deluxe editions could jump into WWE 2K24 a few days ahead of its March 8 release, and now everyone can tag in and see for themselves how this year’s iteration builds on what worked in the past few entries.

WWE 2K24 has partially censored Vince McMahon in its 40 Years of WrestleMania 2K Showcase Mode in the wake of the former chairman’s recent controversies. Earlier this year, ex-WWE employee Janel Grant filed a lawsuit accusing McMahon of sexually assaulting and trafficking her. WWE and parent company TKO have since distanced themselves from him, with McMahon stepping down from his position as executive chairman of the company and WWE no longer acknowledging him on its on-air programming.

's official roster is now available in full. Including 250 superstars, a slight increase over 's roster of 246, is one of the biggest video games in recent years. While the bulk of its wrestlers and managers will be available at launch, several others will be released as DLC on a rough monthly schedule. Announced just before the 2024 Royal Rumble, arrives in plenty of time for Wrestlemania XL.

WWE fans are getting a new wrestling game to enjoy next month. That will be the WWE 2K24 installment, and while we are waiting for the date to roll around, some players are already getting a chance to try the title out. It looks like some media outlets have gained access to the upcoming installment and are sharing footage online. 

CM Punk hasn’t been confirmed as a playable character in WWE 2K24 yet, but the Chicago-born superstar recently made the case to be added as DLC down the road. Nearly ten years after his last virtual appearance in a WWE video game and just a few months removed from his controversial departure from AEW, CM Punk shocked audiences by walking out to the ring at the very end of November’s Survivor Series live event. Since then, there has been much speculation about Punk’s WWE future, including whether or not he will appear in the upcoming WWE 2K24.

Newly-released gameplay videos are offering a look at how special stipulations like Casket Matches and Special Guest Referee contests will play out in WWE 2K24.

WWE 2K24 has continued to reveal ratings for the superstars that make up its massive roster, now confirming the ratings for Undisputed WWE Universal Champion Roman Reigns, current WWE World Heavyweight Champion Seth Rollins, and 15 other superstars. The WWE 2K24 ratings reveals have been going all week, with some of the ratings proving to be somewhat controversial.

The WWE 2K24 full roster list has confirmed that Ken Shamrock will be featured in the game, returning to the WWE game franchise after a nine-year absence. For any WWE 2K24 fans who may be unfamiliar with his work, Ken Shamrock is best known for his time in the UFC, but he has also had a notable career in professional wrestling. This included a few years in WWE, then known as WWF, where Shamrock was an upper mid-carder during the Attitude Era.

The final rundown of wrestlers playable in WWE 2K24 has now confirmed the removal of Vince McMahon and Brock Lesnar, following allegations surrounding both men surfacing last month.

If you’ve paid attention to the wrestling world in 2024, things have gotten rather chaotic rather quickly. In the case of WWE, a massive scandal occurred concerning their former Chairman, CEO, and owner of World Wrestling Entertainment, Vince McMahon. Just before their premiere event, the Royal Rumble, a massive lawsuit revealed heinous acts McMahon and others within the company did. While we won’t talk about all of them via the explicit nature of things, let’s just say that a form of “human trafficking” and abuse was going on, and this would lead to changes within WWE 2K24, the company’s latest video game which is set to arrive in March.

Former WWE and ECW competitor Francine Meeks recently threatened to sue the people behind WWE 2K24 over supposedly stealing her trademarked wrestling nickname. Developer Visual Concepts has been showing off more of WWE 2K24 ahead of its March 8 street date, with the game’s entire roster of legendary wrestlers and modern-day superstars being officially unveiled earlier this week.

WWE 2K24 is bringing back Special Guest Referee Matches for the first time in 10 years, and now the developers have posted a brief teaser of the stipulation. During certain wrestling matches, the usual official is replaced by someone who usually doesn’t have this job, such as another WWE 2K24 wrestler. This can add drama to a given storyline, as the replacement referee in question more often than not has a personal bias (at least in kayfabe) toward or against one of the competitors, which could impact their enforcement of the rules during the match.

WWE 2K24 is bringing back the infamous ECW promotion for its MyGM mode. Extreme Championship Wrestling was created in 1992 as a competitor to both the World Wrestling Federation (as WWE was once known) and World Championship Wrestling, and set itself apart with a roster of future WWE 2K24 superstars and a more hardcore style of wrestling that saw competitors strike each other with weapons as often as punches and holds. WWE would start a revamped version of ECW as a third brand in 2006, but this would eventually end in 2010, with NXT taking its place two years later.

WWE 2K24 gave a first look at The Rock and Teddy Long's character models in new screenshots. With just a few weeks left before launch, WWE 2K24 has been showcasing the diverse roster and exciting features that players will soon experience in the game.

With just weeks to go before the game is released to the masses, the upcoming wrestling game WWE 2K24 reveals the overall ratings for six of the superstars that will make up its roster, including Rhea Ripley and Logan Paul. With its release date right around the corner, WWE 2K24 has been ramping up the reveals, giving fans a good idea of what to expect when the game drops on March 8.

2K just announced a big addition to the upcoming WWE 2K24—popular music artist Post Malone has been added to the game as a DLC character, and he's also serving as its executive soundtrack producer. This is just the latest in a long-running tradition for many WWE games to include celebrities as guest wrestlers.

WWE 2K24 has just teased the return of Mick Foley's Dude Love to the roster. With WWE 2K24's release date drawing near, more details and information are slowly being unveiled. As with every year, the game's playable characters and who made the cut are among the questions that fans have. While Mick Foley's various incarnations have mostly appeared in one form or another in past games, Dude Love's last appearance in WWE 2K23 was locked to the controversial MyFaction mode.

Update:

WWE 2K24 has released a new trailer confirming 18 of the 21 matches that will be featured in this year's Showcase mode. WWE 2K22's Showcase mode was themed after Rey Mysterio, while WWE 2K23 had players reliving some of John Cena's most memorable defeats. The upcoming WWE 2K24, meanwhile, is celebrating 40 years of WrestleMania with its Showcase mode, the aptly-named Showcase of the Immortals.

WWE 2K24 has officially confirmed the return of Bray Wyatt's The Fiend to the game. While Bray Wyatt was part of WWE 2K23's DLC roster, The Fiend had only made appearances in two games, the universally panned WWE 2K20 and WWE Battlegrounds. As Wyatt returned to WWE in 2022 after being let go in 2021, he would debut a different character, signaling the end of The Fiend.

It's been confirmed that WWE 2K24's Showcase mode will have 21 matches total. Showcase is one of the WWE 2K franchise's flagship game modes, and so it's no surprise that it's coming back for WWE 2K24. Sometimes Showcase has focused on specific eras in the WWE, while other times the mode has been used to highlight the careers of specific superstars.

The first official is here, previewing the game’s upcoming improved graphics, new modes, and WrestleMania moments.

CM Punk may not be available in as a playable wrestler, but the community features of the game allow you to adopt the skills of this fighter. This controversial figure did not return to wrestling until after this game's release, so he is not part of the regular roster. The deep character customization can make you feel like this superstar was always intended to be in the ring.

One WWE fan won a special holiday giveaway from the pro wrestling behemoth a decade ago, and is still trying to claim it today because the company never sent it. As WWE is now worth billions of dollars thanks to its merger with the UFC, the wrestling company is typically quite generous with giveaways and promos involving merchandise, which is why this failure to follow through seems uncharacteristic.

WWE's Zelina Vega, known for her electrifying presence in the wrestling ring, is also an avid gamer, which is a passion that shines through in her personal life and professional persona. While the holiday season has arrived, some are still not done shopping, so Vega shared her top picks for gaming-related gifts, providing a treasure trove of ideas for fellow gaming enthusiasts.

What is there to say about Fortnite that hasn’t been said before by us or by other writers and content creators? It’s the game that shouldn’t have been a big hit and yet came to define a gaming generation. Even now, years after the game came out, everyone is excited about what it will do next and who might show up in the game. Its “skin game” is legendary for all the right reasons. Regardless of where the franchise is media-wise, Epic Games will find a way to collaborate in some fashion. Fast forward to now, and WWE is apparently on the brink of a big collab with the title.

WWE 2K23’s fourth set of DLC is now available and includes a mix of regular superstars and a unique wrestler/celebrity mix on its roster. Bray Wyatt returned to the company at last year’s Extreme Rules event after a viral “White Rabbit” campaign led to a massive groundswell in interest for not only Bray, but WWE as a whole.
