Define your legacy in MyCAREER competing in epic matches and making critical choices while rising through the ranks from NXT to WWE, to earn a spot in the WWE Hall of Fame. Train, compete against others, and now define your character in personality-driven interviews and through the forging of alliances and rivalries.

The WWE 2K16 MyCareer Mode

The franchise's career-driven mode, now in its second year, lets players create a custom Superstar and guide them through a career in the WWE. You will dive into the rankings of NXT to learn the ropes from your trainer, Jason Albert, and progress to earning a spot on the main roster. Delivering great matches allows you to upgrade your Superstar’s attributes, abilities, and skills, while you’re able to spend your salary for learning new moves, hiring managers, and other boosts.

You can create your own rivalries against other WWE superstars, as well as choose other matches to run in on. The run-ins will let you establish/cement rivalries, as well as gain new tag team partners. As you pass through the WWE ranks from NXT to Raw, with the ultimate goal of getting into the WWE Hall of Fame, you’ll not only go up against top WWE Superstars, but you’ll also be able to square off against those custom characters created by your friends through the Career Invasion feature.

You’ll be able to shape your character’s personality via post-match interviews (conducted by Renee Young) that factor your answers into your Face/Heel status and your Personality Traits.

Finally, you’ll have encounters with The Authority; your storyline will vary, based on whether or not you choose to cooperate with The Authority’s directives.
