The upcoming instalment in the WWE video game franchise, WWE 2K24, is set to release on March 8 this year. The official trailer reveals multiple WWE legends including Cody Rhodes as the cover Superstar, Undertaker, Hulk Hogan, etc.

Over the last few years, players across the globe have enjoyed playing WWE games and while the game has not reached an esports level of popularity, it is fun to play nonetheless.

The game is developed by Visual Concepts and published by Take Two interactive. 2K, the parent company for Visual Concepts, is also a subsidiary for Take Two.

Speaking about his experience, Cody Rhodes said, “As an avid gamer, being named WWE 2K cover Superstar is very, very close to the top of that list, and I’m very happy to work with the teams at 2K and Visual Concepts to bring that dream to life”.

The game includes a huge roster of WWE stars along with new career mode and match types. These include Special Guest Referee, Ambulance Match, Casket Match, and Gauntlet Match.

This year, the game will feature three editions, Standard Edition, Deluxe Edition and 40 Years of WrestleMania Edition. Have a look at what these editions offer -
