THQ, the publisher of the WWE series, has confirmed that players will not be able to play as Jacob Cass in the upcoming installment of the long-running professional wrestling simulation game series, WWE 13. In a tweet using his personal Twitter account, the series’ community spokesman/marketing maven, Cory Ledesma confirmed that Jacob Cass will not be appearing in the upcoming title. Here is Cory’s exact tweet: “I can confirm that @RealJacobCass will not be in #WWE13. We wish him the best in all future endeavors.”



This is of course little tongue in cheek as Jacob Cass was a created superstar from WWE ’12 – Road to WrestleMania. Stiil, this marks the second time Jacob Cass faced some disappointment from the WWE series. In the highly upgraded WWE 12, Cass failed to make the cut as a main roster character. Instead he was featured in that title’s Road to WrestleMania mode. As we reported earlier, WWE 12 marked quite a change in the development of the long running WWE series. That installment featured quite a range of changes that made for smoother gameplay. With that said, there has been speculation regarding whether the WWE brand and sizable fan base would be better served if the WWE game license was in the hands of a bigger developer like EA Sports. Talk about a slap in the face of THQ who has groomed the series and made quite a leap with WWE 12. You can’t please everybody-you just have to keep plugging along and keep improving your customers’ experience. That’s what the struggling THQ needs to do.

Jacob Cass= FAIL

I expected more from Cass RTWM. Glad he won't be in the next installment. Though I did like the rebirth of the WCW arc.

Well I am very pleased by this news as I didn't like how they handled the whole Jason Cass thing anyway. Tried using my Scott Steiner caw, got that warning message stating that everything was gonna be reset(or something to that effect), so I refused & chose & empty caw slot instead, & yet my Steiner caw still gets completely deleted for some reason. Talk about aggravating
