00:32I mean, a lot of the WWE in general and a lot of things that are memorable are those rivalries,
00:41right?
00:41That's what we really wanted to capture this year, whether it's the rivalry between John Cena and CM Punk or
00:46Shawn Michaels and Triple H.
00:47Those were very heated rivalries, and those were very memorable.
00:50At its core, wrestling is all about two guys who have issues in the middle of the ring and going
00:56toe-to-toe and settling their beef.
00:58For us to capture that in a game, it's about two guys who have issues.
00:59Especially on Next Gen where you can really, really, really sort of push the envelope of how these rivalries are
01:07going to look digitally. It was exciting.
01:09So that was the inspiration for 2K Showcase this year is to really focus on the personal animosity and rivalries
01:15between some of the biggest superstars in the WWE's history.
01:19And now Ryback's got Cena!
01:20Looking for Shellshock here! Ryback marching around the ring, Shellshock with Cena!
01:26We have a new champion! We have a new champion!
01:28We have a new champion! We have a new champion!
01:30What is that?
01:31For John Cena and CM Punk, it was sort of a clashing point of two of the top guys in
01:36the WWE.
01:37And both of them were sort of at their peak.
01:39We really wanted to go that route for one of our rivalries.
01:42Just getting one in there that's fresh in people's minds.
01:45And then the second one, Shawn Michaels and Triple H, that's just a classic rivalry.
01:49You know, it spans so many different parts of their career and so many different angles of their career.
01:54And we wanted to capture that as well.
01:56How much more can either one take or deal?
01:59What is it going to take to win this thing?
02:12It's funny because when you first start a project like this, you're so passionate about it.
02:16And you have all these crazy ideas that you want to put in the game.
02:19And I think everyone that's a fan of the WWE can find a superstar that they can relate to.
02:24That's what we're trying to do with Showcase Mode is drive that home.
02:27You really get a sense that you're in kind of this bigger than life battle with the other opponent.
02:32And I think a lot of the hardcore fans are going to be really excited.
02:34That's why people are in the stadium.
02:36It's the angles, it's the rivalries, it's the emotion that the performers bring into their matches.
02:42There's lots of history.
02:43There's lots of cool moments that I think our fans are really, really going to dig.
02:47The most electrified man in all of sports entertainment.
02:55We have a really extensive DLC content we're going to be unleashing for this year.
03:00We have three Showcase add-ons.
03:03We've got a chapter that revolves around Christian and Randy Orton.
03:06We've got one dedicated to Mark Henry in his Hall of Pain.
03:09And another paying homage and respect to the Ultimate Warrior.
03:12We really upped the ante as far as what we're doing this year for DLC.
03:16And basically not giving any player reason to eject that disc from their machine this year.
03:20I think they're going to be blown away when they pick up 2K15 for the first time.
03:25Michaels is feeling it!
03:28Oh, look at this!
03:29Tune it on the band!
03:32Yeah!
03:32Sweet Tim Music!
03:42Any fan of the WWE like when they put the game up on November 18th and they play that first
03:47match or they step into, you know, my career or 2K Showcase and they see just the loving attention to
03:52detail and just, you know, the passion that went into this.
03:55They're going to say, yeah, this game was made by fans of the WWE.
