WWE 2K25 has been officially announced by 2K as the next installment in the main WWE games series. The release of WWE 2K25 is scheduled for Q4 Fiscal 2025, so we can expect it to be released in March 2025, aligning with the release pattern of its predecessors WWE 2K24, WWE 2K23, and WWE 2K22.
As of now, no Superstars have been officially confirmed for the WWE 2K25 roster, but we're already speculating about who will make the cut. From iconic WWE legends to rising NXT talents, the possibilities are endless for this new chapter of the franchise!
The inclusion of debuting NXT Superstars and the return of fan-favorite legends could offer a thrilling lineup for players, adding an element of excitement and unpredictability to the WWE 2K25 roster.
Here you can find our speculations and predictions on the WWE 2K25 Roster with the possible new additions from the legends, debuting NXT superstars, and more!
The WWE 2K24 Roster will certainly feature the most updated current roster possible, including Superstars such as Cody Rhodes, Roman Reigns, CM Punk, Liv Morgan, Bianca Belair, Rhea Ripley, Seth Rollins, and many more. But who could be the new additions to the game?
Which Raw and SmackDown Superstars could be the new additions to WWE 2K25? Which NXT Superstars will make their debut in the series?
Here you can find our speculations and predictions on the WWE 2K25 Roster with the possible new additions from the legends, debuting NXT superstars, and more!
Here are the Superstars who returned to WWE in 2024, or debuted in the main Roster, that will probably be featured in the WWE 2K25 Roster.
The new Bloodline 2.0 will debut in the series with Tama Tonga, Tonga Loa, and Jacob Fatu, we can definitely expect them to be in the base roster of WWE 2K25.
While the Motor City Machine Guns, Alex Shelley and Chris Sabin, who debuted in WWE in October capturing the Tag Team Championships, could headline the WWE 2K25's DLC Season Pass offering.
The WWE 2K25 will also likely include some returns from WWE 2K20, including Andrade, Erick Rowan, and the Authors of Pain.
Here is the list of possible legends for WWE 2K25, including Legends who appeared in WWE SuperCard or recent WWE Action Figures, or signed a WWE Legends Contract.
Season 11 of WWE SuperCard has just been released adding 5 new Tiers of cards to the game, these new Tiers include Superstars that are not featured in WWE 2K24, and this could be a hint to who we can possibly see in the WWE 2K25 Roster. 2K was granted the rights to include these Superstars in WWE SuperCard, so the same could happen with WWE 2K25.
Here's a list of legends who could be new additions in WWE 2K25 compared to WWE 2K24:
The news of Victoria signing a recent WWE legends contract was met with excitement, particularly because, despite being one of the most iconic female legends in WWE history, she has only appeared in 3 games from the main series, with her last appearance being SVR 2009.
As for Bull Nakano, she has never appeared in a WWE game, but her inclusion in this year's Hall of Fame is encouraging. There's hope she might be added to the game as a surprise, much like The Great Muta was after the 2023 Hall of Fame.
Brian Pillman is another name whose family signed a new WWE legend contract, and he has also returned in WWE SuperCard. We can definitely expect him back in WWE 2K25. This time, he might even appear alongside his son, Lexis King!
Lastly, for the legends, here are additional WWE legends who have recently appeared on WWE TV. However, their current status or contract with the company remains unclear, making it difficult to predict their inclusion in the WWE 2K25 roster. They all have a chance, but we'll see!
Here's the list of Superstars from NXT that have been included in Season 11 and Season 10 of WWE SuperCard and that could join the WWE 2K25 Roster.
Not all of them will end up being in WWE 2K25, but we think they have promising chances for inclusion, some in the base WWE 2K25 roster and some will be added later as DLC.
For all of them, this would mark their debut in the main WWE games series, except for Shawn Spears who appeared as Tye Dillinger in WWE 2K17, 2K18, and 2K19.
The Superstars listed below were featured in WWE 2K24, but it's unlikely to see them in WWE 2K25 due to being recently released from WWE or decided to leave the company in the past months.
Among these, wrestlers such as Bobby Lashley, MVP, or Ricochet who signed and debuted in AEW surely will be removed and won't make it to the WWE 2K25 roster.
Beth Phoenix is no longer under contract with WWE, and there is growing speculation about a possible AEW move to join her husband, Edge.
Baron Corbin has been a regular in the series since WWE 2K16, but following his recent release, his streak of appearances is likely to be broken with WWE 2K25.
WWE 2K25 is the upcoming installment in the long-running series of professional WWE wrestling video games. Developed by 2K Games, it will feature an extensive roster of wrestlers from current WWE and legends, as well as a wide variety of match types and game modes.
