WWE 2K25 roster: Confirmed and rumoured wrestlers revealed
All the wrestlers that you'll be able to square off as in the ring.
WWE games are known for their extensive rosters, and WWE 2K25 is expected to be no different.
Now that we know the next iteration is on the way, it's time to turn our attention to who will make the cut.
Not taking into account downloadable content, the previous WWE featured over 250 playable characters. That's an impressive number, one not even the likes of Super Smash Bros, Marvel Rivals or Overwatch can compete with.
So the next step for publisher 2K is no doubt to go even bigger? Will this be the time to cross the 300 mark?
Well, we won't have long to wait, with more news surrounding WWE 2K25 confirmed to arrive in January and a release date not that far behind.
In the meantime, here are all the confirmed wrestlers and some speculation as to who else could feature.
Who is the WWE 2K25 cover star?
2K has all but confirmed that Roman Reigns will be the cover star for WWE 2K25.
The first tease of the game was revealed in a clip during Netflix's Monday Night Raw in January 2025, which starred the Samoan wrestler. As a result, it's fair to assume he will be the main star.
Reigns follows in the footsteps of Cody Rhodes, John Cena, Bianca Belair and Rey Mysterio, to name a few – all of whom have acted as cover stars for previous WWE titles.
