Finish Your Story with WWE 2K24’s MyRISE Experiences

Unleashed and Undisputed storylines offer unique women’s and men’s division career-driven experiences and over six hours of original WWE Superstar voiceovers

Today, 2K revealed the WWE® 2K24 MyRISE trailer, offering a taste of two new storylines: the women’s division Unleashed experience and the men’s division Undisputed experience. Players are tasked with creating an original Superstar to forge their career path and leave an unforgettable legacy, with 80 rewards to be unlocked, including arenas, Paybacks, entrances, MyFACTION cards, and championship belts. Between the two experiences, there are over six hours of original dialogue, featuring franchise-first voiceover performances from Roman Reigns, Cody Rhodes, “Dirty” Dominik Mysterio, Mick Foley, Shotzi, and more.

In Unleashed, the women’s division experience, players step into the boots of a wrestler who founded the hottest promotion on the indie scene. But when given the opportunity to share her talents on the larger stage of WWE, will she “Unleash” her full potential, or hesitate and hold back?

In Undisputed, Roman Reigns follows in the footsteps of The Rock and heads to Hollywood, vacating his championship and leaving big boots to fill for our protagonist. But the “Tribal Chief” won’t stay gone for long and doesn’t appreciate a pretender to his throne.

Both experiences offer players multiple choices to make that will impact how their careers unfold, including whether to embody the archetype of a Hollywood star, supernatural character, or villainous, brutal heel, and whether to align with authority figures William Regal and The Miz. In addition to original arenas and championship belts, for the first time ever, players will be able to unlock MyRISE-specific MyFACTION* cards from both Undisputed and Unleashed experiences. In Undisputed, this includes cards for fan-favourite characters such as Cole Quinn, Chosen, Slade, Tavish, and Xavier Woods’ alter ego, Zero.

Three editions of WWE 2K24 will be available:

  • The Deluxe Edition will be available digitally worldwide and physically in Australia and New Zealand on Tuesday, March 5, 2024**, and physically for the rest of the world on Friday, March 8, 2024;
  • The Forty Years of WrestleMania Edition will be available – in digital format only – worldwide on Tuesday, March 5, 2024;
  • The Standard Edition and Standard Cross-Gen Digital Edition will be available worldwide on Friday, March 8, 2024.

Visual Concepts is a 2K studio. 2K is a wholly owned publishing label of Take-Two Interactive Software, Inc. (NASDAQ: TTWO).

FINAL FANTASY VII REBIRTH AVAILABLE NOW ON PLAYSTATION 5

Critics Proclaim FINAL FANTASY VII REBIRTH “An Absolute Must-Play,” a “Masterpiece,” “One of the Best RPGs Ever Made”

SYDNEY (1st March, 2024) The groundbreaking fantasy is reborn. FINAL FANTASY VII REBIRTH, the new chapter in the epic FINAL FANTASY VII remake project, is now available worldwide for the PlayStation®5 (PS5®) console. Having earned a Metacritic “Must-Play” award, FINAL FANTASY VII REBIRTH has garnered over 50 perfect review scores from global gaming critics and has been heralded as an “Utterly massive RPG pushed to its limits” by VGC, “a rich lavish remake” by Eurogamer and “a RPG masterpiece” by GAMINGbible.

A celebratory Launch Trailer for the title was also released today and can be viewed below:

In FINAL FANTASY VII REBIRTH, players take on the role of mercenary Cloud Strife and his comrades as they pursue legendary swordsman Sephiroth, a haunting figure from Cloud’s past bent on ruling the planet, across a vast and vibrant world rife with danger, adventure, joy and uncertainty. These unlikely heroes, including beloved, iconic characters Tifa, Barret, Aerith and Red XIII, join forces with new companions like the spirited ninja operative Yuffie and the wisecracking, feline-shaped robot Cait Sith. FINAL FANTASY VII REBIRTH delivers an unforgettable experience to players filled with unexpected twists, memorable characters, and jaw-dropping set pieces that longtime fans and newcomers can both enjoy.

“As the director of the original FINAL FANTASY VII, I feel very proud that we were able to introduce a whole new generation to role-playing games and show so many newcomers a wider world of storytelling. Today, I’m filled with the same sense of pride when I look at what our development team has accomplished with FINAL FANTASY VII REBIRTH. This adventure offers rich rewards to longtime fans while welcoming in newcomers to begin their FINAL FANTASY adventure here and experience a similar sense of wonder as they would have felt in 1997. I hope that both fans and those who have never played FINAL FANTASY before will enjoy this game.” Yoshinori Kitase, Producer

FINAL FANTASY VII REBIRTH is a labor of love and our tribute to adventure – a massive world of compelling stories and our most ambitious game to date. Like those who first brought us the original FINAL FANTASY VII, we’ve reached for something that was never possible before today’s technology: a deeper portrayal of our main cast of friends, comrades and people of the Planet. By combining their powers in battle and strengthening their bonds through your choices, we hope you feel a powerful, connection with these characters and the world they inhabit.” Naoki Hamaguchi, Director

“For many years, I wondered what a remake of FINAL FANTASY VII could look like. Above all else, I felt we would need to do justice to the characters and story that had become so beloved by fans around the world. FINAL FANTASY VII REBIRTH delivers on this vision and vastly expands upon the original title not only in the size of its world, but in the quiet moments shared by party members, where warmth, joy, sorrow and tenderness can be found. As they press on and forge deeper bonds en route to their ultimate fate, I hope you will open your heart to feel these feelings alongside them. As the second title in a trilogy, we’ve enjoyed hearing our fans’ feedback from the previous title and incorporating elements into FINAL FANTASY VII REBIRTH for a truly breathtaking follow-up. Thank you for playing our vision for a remake, in which the past is honored by the possibilities of the present to reimagine a story for future generations.” -Tetsuya Nomura, Creative Director

Set in the diverse and vibrant landscapes of a fictionalised Honolulu, Hawaii, Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth offers a fresh environment for players, characterised by a mix of sunny beaches and bustling city life.

Like a Dragon has always pushed the boundaries of real-world and virtual collaborations, and this collection with Anti Social Social Club is an authentic expression of innovation and creativity in both spheres,” says SEGA of America.

The collaboration also represents a significant investment in the Japanese fashion market for Anti Social Social Club. With this partnership, Anti Social Social Club inks a capsule collection tailor-made for its dedicated fanbases globally.

“Anti Social Social Club and Like a Dragon share a common customer and community, and we’re proud to bring them a first-of-its-kind fashion collaboration with SEGA and RGG Studio,” says the brand. “Like all games in the Like a Dragon series, Infinite Wealth is bursting with energy and character. The pace and rhythm of life in Like a Dragon’s fictional urban environments evokes the spirit and vitality of what it means to live in a city. So much of the game’s ethos resonates with what Anti Social Social Club—and the streetwear community—stand for. Our collection with Infinite Wealth isn’t merch: It’s a must-have extension of the iconic game and characters into our world.”

The collection will feature hoodies, t-shirts and button-downs, as well as accessories like bandanas and co-branded hats.
