Bad news for anyone who doesn't like 2K's "Slingshot Tech" that blends real-life footage from WWE's archives with in-game moments during Showcase. It's destined to make a return in the new "2K Showcase Of The Immortals" mode. That name is excellent, by the way.

Basically, the new Showcase covers 40 years of WrestleMania magic by letting gamers play through some of the biggest matches in the event's history. Some folks may remember that WWE 2K14 had a 30 years of 'Mania offering, so expect something similar (only boasting the aforementioned real-life splicing) here.

Matches confirmed so far include Hulk Hogan vs. Andre The Giant from 'Mania III and one of the cherished Shawn Michaels vs. The Undertaker bouts. Who knows if it'll be the XXV epic, or Shawn's retirement match at XXVI. Hell, both would be lovely, and they'd certainly fit the bill.

Hardly like Bret Hart vs. Vince McMahon from the same card could top the latter!
