WWE 2K25 Review: 11 Ups & 3 Downs
Ups...
11. The Ridiculously Stacked Roster
Daft. Daft, daft, daft.
That's probably the best way to describe the sheer vastness and variety of WWE 2K25's roster.
Seriously, with unlockables, the base game has well over 300 playable characters. When you take into account the already-announced DLC releases set for later this year, that number is closer to 400 playable characters - which, again, is just absolutely ridiculous.
In terms of new additions, the likes of Jacob Fatu, the Guerrillas of Destiny, Oba Femi, Ethan Page, Lola Vice, and Kelani Jordan make their series debuts, while Showcase brings names such as the Wild Samoans, Headshrinkers, and Peter Maivia into play for the first time. And on that front, there's a who's who of wrestling greats here, from Bruno Sammartino to 'Superstar' Billy Graham, to Bret Hart, to Steve Austin, and of course various versions of The Rock.
So, current top stars of this era? Check. The rising stars of tomorrow? Check. The all-time legends of yesteryear? Double-check. Pat McAfee? Err, yeah, he's here, too.
Whatever in-ring style you prefer, whatever time period you prefer, the ludicrously stacked WWE 2K25 roster means there's something for everyone.
