2K have announced the final installment of their roster reveal for the upcoming WWE 2K19 video game.

Over 50 character models were named on a list of Legends that will be included on-disc, and they include series favourites such as Steve Austin, The Rock, André The Giant, Bret Hart and 'Macho Man' Randy Savage. Other, newer names include The Rock N' Roll Express and Bret's old tag partner Jim 'Anvil' Neidhart, who recently passed away.

Of note on the female side of things, Trish Stratus, Lita, Ivory, Jacqueline, Alundra Blayze, Beth Phoenix and Stephanie McMahon (yes, she's on the Legends list this year) are all represented.

It's unclear whether or not 2K will announce further Legends from the past for future DLC packs, or if this is the lot for this year. Even if it is, they've been generous with the amount given out of the box.

Those who purchased the Ric Flair special edition will also get some exclusive models, like 80s-inspired versions of 'Rowdy' Roddy Piper, Dusty Rhodes and Ricky 'The Dragon' Steamboat. Randy Savage's WrestleMania VIII attire will be exclusive to that edition too.
