WWE and 2K Games have revealed new details about the MyRISE story mode in WWE 2K24.
Career modes can be one of the most important parts of a wrestling video game. Whether it's the branching storylines in WWE No Mercy, the rise of Jacob Cass in WWE '12, or the free-roam ability in WWE SmackDown!: Shut Your Mouth, career modes can provide a lot of replayability for those purchasing a WWE video game.
In recent years, MyRISE mode has allowed players to create their custom male or female wrestlers and take them to the top of the WWE while playing through unique storylines.
WWE 2K24 will be no exception and 2K Games have now released new information on MyRISE: Unleashed and MYRISE: Undisputed coming to WWE 2k24.
In the new Ringside Report on the mode, 2K Games has revealed that William Regal will be a part of the mode as the general manager of Monday Night Raw and given some insight into the unlockables that fans can expect.
In 2K24, MyRISE introduces two all-new unique storylines: Unleashed and Undisputed.
Forge your career path with 80 rewards to be unlocked, including arenas, Paybacks, entrances, MyFACTION cards, and championship belts. Between the two stories, there are over 6 hours of dialogue, with voiceover for the first time from Roman Reigns, Cody Rhodes, “Dirty” Dominik Mysterio, Mick Foley, Shotzi, and more.
In Unleashed, the women’s division storyline, players get the chance to express themselves as a wrestler who lives by her own rules. The wrestling company she built from the ground up is the hottest promotion on the indie scene. But when given the opportunity to share her talents on the larger stage of WWE, will she “Unleash” her full potential, or hesitate and hold back?
In both stories, William Regal is back in MyRISE as the General Manager of Raw, helping players navigate backstage shenanigans and rivalries with other Superstars. And in Unleashed, players may just need him as a sounding board. The MyRISE team saw this story as the perfect opportunity to explore the larger-than-life characters that make the storytelling in WWE “can’t miss” - and gave ourselves the same directive that William Regal gives players in Unleashed - to “take big swings” and “live the fantasy.”
Players will have significant choices to make in their Undisputed journey, including whether to align with SmackDown GM The Miz, which unlocks a section of stories where they can show off their more villainous side. This is a meaningful choice that leads to unique stories, cutscenes, alliances, and rewards whether players decide to work with Miz, or tell him he’s not so “awesome.” It also gives players who want to try both paths the ability to replay Undisputed with an alternate experience.
In addition to original arenas and championship belts, for the first time ever, players will be able to unlock MyRISE-specific MyFACTION cards from both Undisputed and Unleashed. In Undisputed, this includes cards for fan-favorite characters such as Cole Quinn, Chosen, Slade, Tavish, and Xavier Woods’ alter ego, Zero.
