• 2K Showcase: The Bloodline's Dynasty: The all-new 2K Showcase, hosted by the "Wise Man" Paul Heyman, celebrates one of the most iconic wrestling family dynasties – The Bloodline, and the Anoa'i, Fatu, and Maivia families. Players are invited to relive, change, and create the history of The Bloodline through iconic historical moments. Relive key victories, including Yokozuna vs. Hulk Hogan at King of the Ring '93, and Rocky Maivia vs. Hunter Hearst Helmsley at RAW in '97.

Create history with fantasy match-ups, including the Wild Samoans vs the Dudley Boyz. Wrestling Junkie, USA TODAY Sports called 2K Showcase: The Bloodline's Dynasty "a fantastic trip down memory lane."
