The much-awaited WWE 2K25, developed by 2K and Visual Concepts, is promising to take the franchise to heights never seen before. Known for its immersive gameplay and lifelike graphics, this year’s edition promises a lot of exciting updates to its rosters, including fan favourites and rising stars. While there is fresh energy in the rosters, absences have many fans yearning for more.
Confirmed WWE Superstars
The WWE 2K25 roster has some really famous names in it. Iconic names like Roman Reigns, Cody Rhodes, Bayley and CM Punk are back in the game to let players relive their unforgettable rivalries. Newcomers to the scene include Ethan Page, the reigning NXT Champion, and Kelani Jordan, bringing in new talent into the game.
Tag team fanatics will find themselves gleeing at The Motor City Machine Guns- Alex Shelley and Chris Sabin- welcoming them to the division with their unorthodox synergy. Talented newcomers like Bron Breakker, Tiffany Stratton and Oba Femi inject fresh life into the lineup, hinting at what might be coming up in WWE next. Last but not least, icons such as Paul Heyman take managerial jobs, further simulating reality to the fullest potential.
Notable Absences: Who Missed the Cut?
While the roster is incredibly strong, some of the biggest superstars are absent this year. Bobby Lashley, a staple in WWE games, is absent after his contract expired in August 2024. MVP also moves to AEW, leaving a managerial gameplay void.
Longtime favourites like Baron Corbin, Ricochet and Jinder Mahal are also missing. Baron Corbin’s exclusion ends an eight-game streak, while Ricochet’s absence leaves fans without his signature high-flying manoeuvres. Other absentees, including Indi Hartwell, Xia Li and Beth Phoenix, reflect recent shifts in WWE’s roster.
What Fans Can Expect
While some omissions are disappointing, WWE 2K25 keeps the franchise alive with a dynamic mix of old and new stars. Enhanced gameplay, detailed graphics, and diverse gaming modes will ensure an electrifying experience. The inclusion of fresh talent signals the evolving landscape of WWE, which keeps the series relevant and exciting.
