During a conversation with WrestleZone’s Matt Black, WWE 2K25 developer Bryan Williams discussed the upcoming downloadable content plans for the game. His comments followed the recent announcement of the game’s base roster featuring over 300 playable characters.
The DLC will be announced soon. So you know, fans won’t have to wait too much longer to find out what we are offering this year. Secondly, I will say that I am super stoked about this year’s DLC.
Williams elaborated on the unprecedented nature of the planned content additions, highlighting the unexpected roster inclusions that await players.
We’ve got some surprises, a lot of surprises. Characters that I think, if anybody thinks about it, they’re like, ‘Oh, probably this character, this superstar.’ But we have some genuine surprises, some shocking characters that I think I was shocked that we were able to do what we’re doing.
The developer underscored the ambitious scope of the post-launch content.
So, yeah, I’m excited, and I think the fans will be genuinely very excited about this year’s DLC offering.[There are] some wrestlers and superstars that I’m sure it feels like, ‘Oh my god, I never thought I’d have this person in this game.’ It’s a brand new world. We’re pushing the envelope. We’re trying to move mountains, to really know make our DLC as exciting and as worthwhile post launch as it possibly can be.
These announcements come after TNA Wrestling World Champion Joe Hendry publicly expressed interest in TNA representation within WWE 2K25’s DLC, citing the recently established partnership between WWE and TNA.
