WWE 2K24 pre-order customers are counting down to the release of this year’s entry. While the Standard Edition of the game has a March 8 release date, certain versions will be available to access three days early. If you’ve pre-ordered the Deluxe Edition or the 40 Years of Wrestlemania version, then WWE 2K24 will be playable at midnight local time on March 5. If you’ve pre-ordered the Standard Edition but can’t wait until March 8 to start playing, then you can also upgrade to the Deluxe and 40 Years of Wrestlemania Editions by visiting the PlayStation, Xbox or PC storefronts.
In addition to early access, the Deluxe Edition and 40 Years of Wrestlemania Edition also include the Season Pass, as well as the Nightmare Family Pack.
The Nightmare Family Pack contains the Dusty Rhodes (’76) + MyFACTION Card and Pharaoh Manager MyFACTION Card, as well as Stardust, Undashing Cody Rhodes, “Superstar” Billy Graham and Mattel Cody Rhodes (Bruised) Playable Characters.
That’s on top of additional bonus content, such as the MyRISE Mega-Boost, SuperCharger, Rhea Ripley MyFACTION Gold Card, Bianca Belair MyFACTION Gold Card, Rhea Ripley Alt Attire and Bianca Belair Alt Attire.
The 40 Years of Wrestlemania Edition contains even more bonuses, including the Showcase Superstars Roster Unlock and WrestleMania 40 Arena, plus the “Macho King” Randy Savage WrestleMania 6 costume, Rey Mysterio’s WrestleMania 22 attire, the Wrestlemania 30 version of Triple H, Charlotte Flair’s WrestleMania 33 outfit, and Rhea Ripley’s attire from WrestleMania 36.
The Season Pass, meanwhile, adds 25 wrestlers to the game as part of five different DLC packs.
It all starts with the ECW Punk Pack, which adds CM Punk to the game, as well as other wrestlers from Extreme Championship Wrestling such as Bubba Ray and D-Von Dudley, Sandman and the legendary Terry Funk.
The Post Malone Pack is up next, adding legends like Sensational Sherri, Honky Tonk Man, Jimmy Hart and The Headbangers (Mosh and Thrasher).
Pat McAfee headlines the third DLC pack in July, while former AEW talent Jade Cargill will be part of the Global Superstars Pack in August.
The Season Pass content concludes with the release of the WCW Pack in November 2024.
The WCW Pack contains Diamond Dallas Page, Iron Sheik, Mr. Perfect, Great Muta and Lex Luger, not to mention new MyFACTION content.
