Building on last year’s foundation, WWE 2K16’s Creation Suite deepens the player’s arsenal with new and returning features, including Create a Diva, Create a Championship, Create an Arena, and Create a Show. Key improvements have also been made to existing fan-favorite offerings, including Create a Superstar, Create an Entrance, Moveset, Superstar Studio and Community Creations.

WWE 2K16’s core wrestling gameplay is smoother and more responsive than ever, with thousands of new animations, enhancements in Chain Wrestling, new pin and submission systems, improved AI, dynamic entrances, new working holds and a revised reversals system to deliver the most fun and authentic WWE experience to date.

Overall enhancements in WWE 2K16 improve upon authenticity across the board, including a new cloth system and better hair physics, realistic broadcast presentation and flow, and for the first time ever a 3-man commentary featuring Michael Cole, John ‘Bradshaw’ Layfield and Jerry ‘The King’ Lawler, with thousands of additional commentary lines.

Define your legacy in MyCAREER competing in epic matches and making critical choices while rising through the ranks from NXT to WWE, to earn a spot in the WWE Hall of Fame. Train, compete against others, and now define your character in personality-driven interviews and through the forging of alliances and rivalries.

Completely overhauled based on fan feedback, WWE 2K16 provides users with multiple ways to play online with the WWE Games community, including an improved matchmaking system: WWE Live, 2K Tonight and Team Up are the new multiplayer modes you can participate in for PS4 & Xbox One.

2K Showcase presents a match-by-match exposition of the famed career of WWE Legend Stone Cold Steve Austin.  Packed with hard-hitting cinematics, historic WWE video packages, authentic WWE Superstar voiceovers, and loads of unlockables, there’s no shortage of content to explore.

Build your own WWE Universe

WWE Universe has been improved drastically with new core systems to have a richer and more dynamic WWE.

WWE 2K16 makes core improvements to stories, rivals, and match card selections. In addition, for the first time, Superstars can be assigned to multiple shows, enabling players to have a broader experience.

WWE Universe mode offers the ultimate WWE sandbox experience in WWE 2K16. Book matches, assign Superstars and Divas to shows and pay-per-views, create rivalries and alliances or watch them transpire on their own. For the first time, characters now have personality traits that can affect their decisions in gameplay and storylines.  And with the new status effect system, the outcomes of these matches and stories can result in temporary boosts or penalties for those involved. The choices are yours to influence and control in this mode of near-endless possibilities.
