With WWE 2K23 set to release next month, 2K Sports and Visual Concepts have provided even more details regarding their signature Showcase game mode.
Not unlike WWE 2K15, players will be able to experience John Cena‘s now 20-year career over the course of several matches. However, unlike previous entries, players will get to experience this year’s mode — entitled “Never Give Up” — playing as some of his biggest rivals, including Batista, Brock Lesnar, and The Rock.
While Showcase mode can be traced back as far as WWE ’13, 2K15 is the first time the franchise introduced it through the lens of specific superstars rather than moments in time. In WWE 2K22, Rey Mysterio was given the spotlight.
But just because you won’t be playing through said career as Cena himself doesn’t mean the “Peacemaker” star won’t be involved.
