WWE 2K25 has been teased by 2K and WWE during RAW’s first show on Netflix. The grandiose event, which was backed by a star-studded cast featuring John Cena, Roman Reigns, The Rock, and CM Punk, served as the official welcome for WWE on Netflix.
More information will be revealed by 2K on January 28, but the game can already be wishlisted on Xbox, PlayStation, and PC.
Grand Reveal
The upcoming reveal of WWE 2K25 has fans energised, and it comes just days after WWE 2K23 was finally taken offline, leaving just WWE 2K24 in a fully playable state.
Here’s the statement offered by 2K in the wake of the tease:
WWE 2K returns bigger, bolder, and better than ever in a breakthrough year for the franchise! WWE 2K25 is preparing to charge down the ramp with all the authenticity and action fans love from the best in sports entertainment.
Discover game-changing features, iconic Superstars, and more details on January 28th, 2025.
The expectation is that WWE 2K25 will follow a similar release pattern to last year’s instalment, dropping in April 2025 – but that’s speculation and nothing more.
Following the teasers, Xbox took to social media to reveal the first screenshots of the game:
No better way to celebrate the debut of #RAWonNetflix than with a special first look at #WWE2K25
This tells us that at least CM Punk, Damien Priest, Liv Morgan, and Cody Rhodes will appear in the game, but that’s hardly a revelation in itself. What fans are most curious about is who will feature as the cover star for WWE 2K25. Last year, it was Cody Rhodes, and the year before that, John Cena took centre stage.
Given that all the recent talk is centred around John Cena’s epic retirement tour, could the superstar make yet another appearance on the cover of a WWE game?

It just looks shinier it’s the same slop. Finally remake SmackDown Here Comes The Pain and No Mercy N64 or make a game like them with current stars it shouldn’t be hard. Also they need to finally bring back ECW put it on Netflix.
Is AEW making a new game? It’s been hinted at but that company is a mess thanks to Tony. Just to drop another blow to him they should finally go back to the Here Comes The Pain style of game and have Paul Heyman bring ECW back on Netflix then bring back the real WWF Ice Cream Bars 😉 UFC should secure Yuke’s bring back the Undisputed series. Tony needs to just sell AEW/ROH to Shane McMahon or finally step back and hire Scott D’Amore and Delirious to run the companies.
Only way WWE will improve games I think is if Tony Khan makes an actual good wrestling game or decent one. Same with ECW Khan would have to book a successful hardcore style weekly show for them to one up him. Maybe he buys GCW next and puts it on Tubi. He can’t even secure a FS1 deal for AEW or a TV deal for ROH. UFC might be the same Rizin, PFL, or One would have to make something rivaling UFC Undisputed 3.
Stop buying this trash and NBA 2K and maybe we get those back like a new Def Jam finally, a Here Comes The Pain WWE game, and NBA Street finally back.
