Wrestling fans take note: The next WWE title from 2K Games is going to feature Brock Lesnar on the cover. 2K Games has also confirmed the release date for the latest iteration of this annual game series that’s based on the professional wrestling franchise. For those who are unaware, Brock Lesnar is one of the largest stars in the WWE so his presence on the cover is justified.
Lesnar is best known for his sheer strength and his unorthodox wrestling style. He has previously been the UFC Heavyweight Champion and has even seen success in mixed martial arts tournaments.
He has been World Heavyweight Champion four times in the WWE and was the one who ended The Undertaker’s undefeated streak at WrestleMania. He joins the list of great WWE stars who have graced the cover of previous games, past cover athletes include John Cena, The Rock, and the one and only Stone Cold Steve Austin.
“I am excited for my newest opportunity representing WWE 2K17 as the franchise’s ambassador and honored to serve as the WWE 2K17 cover superstar,” Brock Lesnar was quoted as saying in the press release.
WWE 2K17 is going to be released on October 11th for PlayStation 4, PlayStation 3, Xbox One, and Xbox 360.
