HHH commented on the matter but even hinted that there may be a way around it. Here's what you'll get with the WWE 2K17 NXT Collector's Edition (via IGN).Įven though the brand split is happening on July 19, it probably won't take place. Included in the game will presumably be a Brock Lesnar-themed mode, as most years have a big theme that has something to do with the man on the cover.ĭespite all of that excitement about the pre-order bonus and potential Lesnar-themed game mode, 2K Sports and the WWE dropped huge information on a pre-order collector's edition that will have the WWE NXT fans talking. Brock Lesnar was announced as the cover man for the game, and for the first time, the WWE is partnering up with former WWE star Goldberg as a pre-order bonus. It's 2016, and WWE 2K17 is set to come out on October 11 for the PS3, PS4, Xbox 360 and Xbox One. Nothing may top WWE Smackdown! Here Comes the Pain, but 2K is getting closer by the year. Of course, there were complaints, but with the huge roster and the addition of NXT, fans had nearly everything they've wanted in a WWE video game. NXT was a focal point of the game for the first time, and 2K knocked it out of the park. Last year, the WWE had its first non-active wrestler don the cover of WWE 2K16: Stone Cold Steve Austin. That was also the first time it transitioned to PS4 and Xbox One. Then, WWE 2K15 was arguably the best version in its first two years when John Cena graced the cover. There were bugs to fix, but overall, the game was adequate for 2K's first attempt. It was 2K's first time creating the popular wrestling franchise, and it was a success.

It began with WWE 2K14 when the Rock was on the cover. The WWE 2K series is only getting better with age, quite like a fine wine.
