Yokozuna, one of the greatest and most brutal champions in WWE history, is included in the game with the new WWE 2K22 DLC.
Although WWE and 2K Games have released a huge amount of content consisting of 168 new and old WWE stars in total, it shows us how WWE 2K22 can be enriched with post-launch DLC packs. A total of five packs are reportedly coming, which will launch with the Banzai Pack on April 26, with each pack adding between five and seven wrestlers.
The legend of the 90s comes with Yokozuna Banzai Pack
As the name of the new DLC pack for WWE 2K22 suggests, the most important addition to this pack is the legendary Yokozuna. 2K Games actually wants to show players what the legendary wrestling stars of the 90s would look like in the game.
WWE 2K22 is 2K Games’ ninth title as part of its long-standing partnership with WWE, and the last game to come out after the poorly-rated WWE 2K20 from fans. The Build is the game with the largest and largest (at launch) playable champion roster in WWE history.
It will have the largest staff with an all-star legendary content, today’s stars and wrestlers to be added with new DLCs. In addition, with MyGM joining the career mode renamed as MyRISE and the 2K Showcase options, the General Manager mode is now back again.
Prior to the Banzai Pack’s release, 2K Games shared a screenshot from the game’s official Twitter account and previewed Yokozuna. The image features Samoan wrestling icon Yokozuna in her famous checkered kimono for WrestleMania 9.
A 2-time WWE champion, he was considered one of the greatest in history by the wrestling community during his time in WWE from 1992 to 1994. Yokozuna was one of the biggest heels in WWE. He became famous by defeating the legends of that period such as Hulk Hogan, The Undertaker, Bret Hart and Lex Luger. However, he struggled for years to control the damage he caused to his body due to his increasing weight, but he passed away on October 23, 2000 at the age of 34.
Yokozuna is not the only Samoan star to be cast, the Banzai Pack will also include Rikishi and Umaga, members of the famous Anoa family like Yokozuna. Some names to be added to the game include Dwayne Johnson, Roman Reigns and The Usos.
