?My career has been about breaking barriers and doing what nobody else has done before. Being the first female Superstar on the cover of a WWE 2K video game is no exception,? said Becky Lynch.

?As a gamer myself, being on the cover of WWE 2K20 alongside ?The Man? Becky Lynch and joining the likes of Dwayne ?The Rock? Johnson and John Cena is a huge career and personal milestone for me,? said Roman Reigns.

WWE 2K20, in direct response to fan feedback, will include several franchise firsts alongside streamlined gameplay and a variety of popular modes. The story-driven, objective-based 2K Showcase: The Women?s Evolution will follow the careers of the Four Horsewomen ? Raw Women?s Champion Becky Lynch, SmackDown Women?s Champion Bayley?, Charlotte Flair? and Sasha Banks?. Controls will be streamlined to allow new players to jump into the game more easily, while experienced players will still enjoy a challenge.

In addition, WWE 2K20 players will be able to compete as both male and female Superstars in MyCAREER and Mixed Tag matches, while last year?s popular WWE Towers returns with exciting new challenges, including a story-driven Tower centered around the career of Roman Reigns.

The game will also introduce a new service model ? WWE 2K20 Originals ? set to deliver a wealth of 2K Showcase add-on content for player exploration beyond the game?s initial launch.

They asked for female-driven MyCAREER and 2K Showcase offerings, and we?re giving them just that, as well as streamlined controls and our brand new WWE 2K20 Originals.
