"WWE 2K15" just dodged the possibility of its fans yawning while playing with its original offerings by releasing new updates, including new characters and wrestling maneuvers.
"Wrestling games, like wrestling itself, can get a little stale unless new blood is brought in every now and then to inject a little energy and excitement into the proceedings," said Game N Guide.
"...[T]oday is your lucky day," announced Tech Times, explaining on Dec. 16, around 12:30 p.m., that the updates are already live for both PlayStation and XBox.
Contents from the WCW of yore as well as two versions of Hulk Hogan can be had for a little below $11 — at $7.99 and $2.99, respectively.
According to the Game N Guide report, five fighters from the former formidable competitor of the WWE will be on the "WWE 2K15" lineup. They are Bam Bam Bigelow, Diamond Dallas Page, Fit Finlay, Lord Steven Regal and Lex Lugar. For $2.99, you can add two versions of the wrestling legend Hulk Hogan — in classic and Hollywood styles.
The offer comes for those who missed the characters as pre-order incentives and want a throwback 13 years since the WCW folded, said Shack News. Also for $2.99, there's also an option to buy two playable Sting characters, the classic and modern "Crow."
All the downloadable content is available as a $24.99 season pass, and comes with Paige, the 22-year-old WWE Divas champion who, the Game N Guide report said, is 2014's great success story.
