WWE 2K19 arrives as the latest entry to the flagship WWE video game franchise and features cover Superstar AJ Styles. WWE 2K19 will showcase a massive roster of popular WWE Superstars, Legends and Hall of Famers, as well as NXT favourites. Experience authentic WWE gameplay, extensive creation options, engaging match types and fan-favourite modes.
2K Showcase is a story-driven, single-player campaign mode that traditionally covers a particular era or rivalry of a WWE Superstar
The mode features historic WWE footage that gives context and backstory to the objective-based matches the user plays through
Achieving objectives often triggers mid-match cinematic cutscenes that allow the user to recreate historic moments on their way to victory. Completing objectives also unlocks special arenas, Superstars, attires and championship belts.
The goal of finishing a Showcase is to complete as many objectives as possible to earn all unlockable content, and of course, relive some awesome WWE history along the way!
WHAT PROMPTED THE 2K SHOWCASE RETURN IN THE WWE2K FRANCHISE?
The first factor in making this decision was listening to the fans
2k has received a lot of requests asking us to bring back the mode. Internally, the team also wanted to bring 2K Showcase back because it adds a different gameplay dimension, as players are attempting to recreate historic moments.
It’s a great way for players to learn about different WWE Superstars and experience matches they may not have witnessed when they originally occurred on WWE programming.
WHY DANIEL BRYAN?
Daniel Bryan is one of the most popular WWE Superstars in the last decade, with nearly universal support from the WWE Universe.
His story resonates with everyone, as he worked incredibly hard to get to the top of his craft – only to deal with setbacks that seemingly would keep him from fulfilling his dreams.
He persevered, fought for what he wanted and is now back doing what he was meant to do.
His story is both relatable and inspiring for anyone trying to achieve their goals in life.
