WWE 2K24 is set to honour the legacy of Bray Wyatt with a new alternate version of the beloved character. The game’s developers have teased the arrival of a unique Wyatt model based on his planned return look, as seen in the WWE documentary “Bray Wyatt: Becoming Immortal”.
The cryptic teaser shared by the WWE 2K24 team on social site X/Twitter, features eerie imagery and a glimpse of Wyatt’s new appearance, complete with a distinctive lantern.
The clip hints at an October 16th, 2024 release date, sparking speculation among fans about the nature of this addition to the game’s roster.
This new version, unofficially dubbed Bray Wyatt ’23 by community creators, represents a look that Wyatt was rumoured to debut before his untimely passing in August 2023.
The WWE has confirmed in the documentary that this version of Wyatt was being developed for his eventual in-ring return, marking a departure from his previous personas like “The Fiend” and his Firefly Funhouse character.
While Wyatt never had the chance to unveil this character on WWE programming, its inclusion in WWE 2K24 offers fans a unique opportunity to experience this unrealised vision.
The gaming community is rampant with multiple theories about how this new Wyatt model will be implemented.
Some speculate it could be a MyFaction exclusive character, while others suggest it might be part of a special game re-release, similar to WWE 2K23‘s Bad Bunny DLC Edition.
WhatsTheStatus, a prominent WWE 2K community creator, has delved into the game files and confirmed the existence of assets for the new Wyatt character, including the distinctive lantern seen in the teaser. However, even they are uncertain about the exact nature of this upcoming content.
This addition to WWE 2K24 is seen by many as a fitting tribute to Bray Wyatt’s creative legacy in WWE.
While the game already features multiple versions of the iconic wrestler, including NWO and Saturday Night’s Main Event iterations, this new model represents a what-might-have-been scenario that fans are eager to explore.
The potential arrival of Bray Wyatt ’23 comes amid rumours of other Wyatt-related content, including possible Uncle Howdy and Wyatt Sicks updates.
There has been no official confirmation from 2K regarding Uncle Howdy or Wyatt Sicks content as of now, though the Wyatt Sicks concept was reportedly in development for future storylines, according to WWE creative sources.
These additions would further enhance the game’s roster and provide fans with more ways to celebrate Wyatt’s impact on professional wrestling.
