Additionally, there is speculation regarding the possibility of a release on the anticipated Nintendo Switch 2. More information is expected in the upcoming weeks, so be sure to check back for updates.
Cover Star Revealed
The cover athlete for WWE 2K25 has been officially confirmed to be Roman Reigns. Following his significant victory over Solo Sikoa, he was spotted backstage alongside his Wise Man, Paul Heyman, teasing his prominent role in the upcoming game.

Following this revelation, the game’s Steam page leaked the cover image, prominently displaying Roman Reigns alongside Paul Heyman. This is expected to be featured on at least one version of the game, as 2K often releases multiple editions with various cover athletes, similar to the 40 Years of WrestleMania edition from 2K24.
While Reigns was featured on the cover of 2K20 alongside Becky Lynch, this time he is likely to claim the spotlight on his own or potentially share it with members of his Bloodline, or even Solo Sikoa.
