Dubbed to hold the biggest roster of wrestling champions and fighters in the franchise, the list of playable fighters in 2K Games' "WWE 2K16" keeps on growing. This time, five new names have been added to the list via a new leak.
The leak reportedly comes from GameStop Italy, which adds Hulk Hogan, The Rock, Triple H, Andre the Giant and Alexa Bliss playable characters, SEScoops reported. 2K Games has not yet commented on the leaks, though the report does highlight the fact that Alexa Bliss is a surprisingly pleasant addition as a NXT representative.
So far, a total of 120 playable fighter are coming to "WWE 2K16." Considering how the likes of Alexa Bliss appears to be part of the roster, there may be more well-known NXT members who will be part of the roster.
Other confirmed fighters include Eva Marie, Finn Balor, Bad News Barrett, Daniel Bryan and Dean Ambrose, to name a few.
Just recently, 2K Sports also released a short video featuring WWE World Heavyweight Champion Seth Rollins, seen below. Here, Rollins challenges superstar cover "Stone Cold" Steve Austin, saying that despite being on the cover, Austin won't come out on top when he and Rollins clash.
Both Austin and Rollins are part of the massive roster. As per Rollins' message, he is currently the most desired playable fighter for "WWE 2K16." He mentioned that his win is dictated by the future. Interestingly, the franchise is now in the cusp of transition, as pointed out by Bleacher Report. And Rollins' latest message to the legend may be one of the factors that contribute to this.
"WWE 2K16" is set for release in October on the PS4, PS3, Xbox One and Xbox 360.
