The promotional campaign for WWE 2K19 recently kicked off when it was announced that current WWE Champion AJ Styles will be the Superstar on the cover this year.
Fans can expect some big announcements regarding WWE 2K19 in the months to come, and WWE has confirmed that Rey Mysterio will be one of two bonus characters that fans will have access to if they pre-order the game.
“Since my WWE debut in 2002, ‘Never Say Never’ – the WWE 2K19 campaign theme – has been a big part of my career,” said Mysterio. “It is an honor to join the likes of Kurt Angle, Goldberg, Sting, Ultimate Warrior and Arnold Schwarzenegger as one of two WWE 2K19 pre-order playable characters.”
“As one of the most popular WWE Superstars of all time, as well as one of the most frequently requested in the WWE 2K franchise, we’re thrilled to celebrate Rey Mysterio’s career by bringing him back as part of the WWE 2K19 pre-order offer,” said Chris Snyder, Vice President of Marketing at 2K. “His embodiment of ‘Never Say Never’ throughout his career also makes him an incredible fit to share his story as part of our global marketing campaign.”
The other pre-order bonus character is expected to be Ronda Rousey.
WWE 2K19 will be released on PS4, Xbox One and PC on October 9th, and you can check out the Rey Mysterio reveal video below.
