More Details Revealed Regarding WWE 2K18 DLC Packs And Pricing

As previously reported, 2K Games revealed on Twitter on Monday and Tuesday that The Hardy Boyz, Elias, Ruby Riot, Lars Sullivan, Drew McIntyre, The Rock 'n' Roll Express, Beth Phoenix, and Aleister Black will all be included as this year's downloadable content character offerings for the upcoming WWE 2K18 video game.

As previously announced, those who pre-order the game will also receive Kurt Angle as a playable character, and those who pre-order either the Deluxe Edition or the "Cena (Nuff)" Collector's Edition of the game will receive Angle, Batista, two versions of John Cena, and Rob Van Dam as playable characters as well. Though not yet officially announced, it is expected that this content will become separate DLC at some point later on, similar to how Goldberg was with last year's WWE 2K17, in which he was the pre-order bonus.

Today, 2K Games has revealed more details regarding all of the DLC packs, as well as pricing for each pack. Details are below:

It’s time to pull back the curtain on WWE 2K18’s DLC content! Featuring fan-favorites The Hardy Boys, WWE Hall of Famers, current WWE Superstars, and some of the brightest NXT talent, in addition to new moves, and in-game bonuses, WWE 2K18’s DLC has something for everyone.
