WWE 2K24: 10 Best Looking Characters

6. Vader

WWE 2K24 Umaga

Seeing Vader back in a WCW setting just feels right. Even more so, Halloween Havoc was the scene of Vader and Cactus Jack's brutal Texas Death Match back in 1993. There's no 'spin the wheel, make the deal' element in play this time out, but the inclusion of Cactus Jack in WWE 2K24 means this is a match you can somewhat recreate.

Regardless, Vader looks and plays brilliantly in WWE 2K24, with he another who benefits from the chunky, meaty offense that the bigger characters can dish out.

Clearly more modeled on the Vader who rocked up in the then-WWF at the turn of 1996, those more creative sorts amongst you shouldn't find it too hard to make an alternative attire that's more in tune with the powerhouse's Big Van Vader days. And if you are indeed someone who's a whizz with the Creation Suite, you could do far worse than get to work on a Surfer Sting for Vader to go to war against. 

Then again, the inclusion of Faarooq in WWE 2K24 means you might even be able to rework the APA man into the classic Ron Simmons who beat Vader for the WCW World Heavyweight Title back in December '92.
