WWE and 2K Games revealed tonnes of information about the upcoming WWE 2K22 video game, including the cover star and release date.
Featured on the cover is former WWE Champion Rey Mysterio, who sat down with Byron Saxton and Sam Roberts at 2K press event to announce the cover reveal.
Rey discussed being on the game cover, as well as featuring in this year’s 2K Showcase mode, and what it means to him.
He said:
“Representing the culture of lucha libre as the cover Superstar for WWE 2K22 is a moment of great pride for me. I’m looking forward to sharing the stories behind the big moments of my career with a dedicated community of players and connecting with WWE fans in a whole new way as they play through my 2K Showcase. I think every moment, every accolade that I have throughout my career has had a different meaning. Just being able to share the ring with my son (for the first time) was a very special moment. And not only that, but we became tag team Champions — the first father and son in WWE history. It’s been an incredible ride. I’ve enjoyed every moment that I’ve had in the ring, you know, from my beginning, in ’89, up until now, 2022.”
