DC 536 Posted May 18, 2015 Share Posted May 18, 2015 Credit to IGN. Not really much more to go on, but may as well get the thread started now and see what drops (if anything) at E3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Evil Gringo 279 Posted May 19, 2015 Share Posted May 19, 2015 Roster and move update on last year, its in the yearly release cycle now - maybe they'll tweak some of the glitches and maybe they'll be less freezing issues. I wonder if they are still going to support the 360 and PS3 this year as well? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shaun2J 127 Posted May 19, 2015 Share Posted May 19, 2015 It's supposed to be the biggest roster yet.... Like every year and with the same wrestlers getting more than one slot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DC 536 Posted May 19, 2015 Author Share Posted May 19, 2015 I can't see there being anything for the last-gen consoles this year (2K15 was barely a token gesture last year), but hopefully they'll take on board some of the criticisms, particularly with the lack of CAW options and the lack of match types.

DC 536 Posted June 22, 2015 Author Share Posted June 22, 2015 Here's the first dev-released pic relating (excluding roster reveal renders) and it shows Finn Bálor looking pleased as punch alongside the in-game model for his demon form. http://i187.photobucket.com/albums/x165/dravencage/11377310_10153163972428355_76510099561322321_n.jpg In the top-left it says "FinBalor_02", so I'm assuming this will be an alternate attire or something that he only uses at NXT specials or WWE PPV events when in Universe mode (exhibition mode will most likely have it available all the time).

Guest Jayfunk Posted June 23, 2015 Share Posted June 23, 2015 It's supposed to be the biggest roster yet.... Like every year and with the same wrestlers getting more than one slot. But barely anyone plays most people so numbers aren't impressive just more wrestlers not to play as Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DC 536 Posted June 23, 2015 Author Share Posted June 23, 2015 But barely anyone plays most people so numbers aren't impressive just more wrestlers not to play asEven if you don't play as those people, you still need a varied roster to fight against.

DC 536 Posted June 27, 2015 Author Share Posted June 27, 2015 The developers have been talking about how this game will have the largest roster ever (a claim made most years, truth be told), but a lot of concerns were being raised that there would be duplicates of superstars to pad it out (e.g. retro-HBK, etc). The developers are putting that issue to be early -: "For anyone doubting the ”largest roster ever” tag line for WWE 2k16, let us you assure you, that we are bringing over 120 unique playable Superstars and Divas to the game. Now when we say unique, we’re not counting the repeats like 5 John Cena models, or 8 Mark Henry models. As you can imagine, these models are keeping us crazy busy, but it is worth it. #wwe2k16largestrosterever" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DC 536 Posted June 30, 2015 Author Share Posted June 30, 2015 They've released another Tweet to say that the 120+ characters will all be available on the disc and not part of any DLC packages. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shaun2J 127 Posted July 6, 2015 Share Posted July 6, 2015 Hmmm, not so sure about Austin being on the cover but I guess they'll make a few more "Special" editions like they've done with Taker, Sting and Warrior. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest bigmatt Posted July 6, 2015 Share Posted July 6, 2015 I'm hoping this means Austin is headlining WrestleMania. I know that one doesn't follow the other but I'm still hoping. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Yodahew Posted July 7, 2015 Share Posted July 7, 2015 gamefaqs.com has it listed under X1, PS4, 360 and PS3 so it looks like it will be released on all consoles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest pheadley Posted July 27, 2015 Share Posted July 27, 2015 Blockbuster action film star, 38th Governor of California, former professional bodybuilder and WWE Hall of Famer featured as two playable characters in flagship WWE video game franchise "I've achieved many things in my life, but I've always said success means staying hungry and pushing the limits," said Schwarzenegger. "I was honored to join the WWE Hall of Fame earlier this year, and now I'll continue my WWE legacy with one of my biggest film roles immortalized in WWE 2K16. Match the Terminator against Stone Cold Steve Austin, Seth Rollins or Daniel Bryan, and there's only one possible outcome: Hasta la vista, baby!"
