The WWE’s young blood takes the spotlight in WWE 2K25’s New Wave DLC pack

Available now, WWE 2K25‘s New Wave DLC is packed with fresh stars the MCMG, Stephanie Vaquer, and Giulia.

It was a maaaaaaadhouse

It seems like ages since we’ve gotten some downloadable content for 2K and Visual Concepts’ WWE 2K25. But have no fear, as the next in the series of post-launch packs is finally here, and if you’re a fan of the WWE’s newer talent, you’re going to want to check it out.

Included in the pack and leading the way are the Motor City Machine Guns. A veteran tag team that’s just recently made their way to the WWE, Alex Shelley and Chris Sabin were fast stars, becoming tag team champs in no time. And even though they’ve since dropped those titles, they’ve become mainstays on the main roster.

If you’re more into women’s division action though, you’re also in luck, as two of the biggest global stars to be added to the NXT roster are included in today’s DLC drop as well. Both Stephanie Vaquer and Giulia are forces in the developmental brand, and ready to rock in WWE 2K25. Oh, and did we mention there’s a special celebrity guest star as well? He or she is still a mystery, so expect more on that down the line.

The New Wave Pack features four of the hottest names to join the WWE roster in recent history, all making their WWE 2K franchise debuts. Alex Shelley and Chris Sabin comprise the Motor City Machine Guns, who quickly captured the WWE Tag Team Championships shortly after their WWE debut, and held an array of titles and accolades in other promotions, establishing themselves as one of the world’s foremost tag teams. Stephanie Vaquer is the current NXT Women’s Champion, former NXT Women’s North American Champion, and the only woman to hold both titles simultaneously. Giulia arrived in WWE to much fanfare, winning the 2024 Women’s Iron Survivor Challenge within a few months of her NXT debut, and going on to capture the NXT Women’s Championship. The New Wave Pack includes MyFACTION cards for each new Superstar, as well as a total of more than 40 moves and taunts. The pack is available for individual purchase, or as part of the WWE 2K25 Season Pass, which is also included in both The Bloodline Edition and Deadman Edition.

Along with the New Wave pack, fans can expect an update to MyFACTION, with the return of the Demastered card series. There’s also a new weapon with the Urn, though that will only be made available to players with the Deadman Edition Bonus PackDeadman Edition or The Bloodline Edition of the game.

While we’re on the wrestling subject too, chapter two of The Island is on the way, and if you’ve been enjoying the current-gen console exclusive mode, it sounds like it’s set to offer a packed followup.

Chapter 2 of The Island will also be arriving soon, offering 11 new quests, 44 new matches, new unlockable content including Xavier Woods’ alter ego Zero and the ghost of Paul Bearer, plus new branded gear in the shops, a continuation of The Island storyline, and more, exclusively available for PS5 and Xbox Series X|S.
