WWE 2K16 is going to be hitting consoles in a few months as the results for the last financial year was revealed by Take Two Interactive. The parent company of 2K has finally announced that the official release date for the wrestling title will be on October 27, 2015, and that it will be playable in the Xbox One, Xbox 360, PS4 and PS3.
According to IGN, the said date only marks the domestic release. The international debut, on the other hand, will be on October 30th.
Unlike other games that are still in development, it appears that WWE 2K16 will still support older gen consoles, thereby allowing more gamers to partake in the fighting action it has to offer. It should be noted, however, that the release date last year for 2K15 was separate between new gen and old gen consoles. The latter came out a month ahead than the other. Earlier this month was the release for PC along with several DLC, as based in a recent game report.
While the release date is no longer a surprise, the gameplay and even the roster still are. Nonetheless, the wrestlers have their own way of teasing fans about who are actually in the video game, and who are not. For instance, when it comes to the Divas, Sasha Banks who was deemed the NXT Women's Champion has acknowledged her presence through social media. The same goes with Rosa Mendes.
On the other hand, a report also mentions that Paige will likely be included in the Divas Title match as she was the one to win the Battle Royal.
There have been several rumors about WWE 2K16, and some of these were already falsified. One would be the hearsays that the title will have the most number of wrestlers to fill the roster, which was eventually denied by Marcus Stephenson, who is the community manager.
WWE 2K16 is still several months away. Since there are still a lot of details to learn about the gameplay, fans should stay tuned for more announcements. In addition to this, Summer Slam should also be a good time to hear about the roster.
