Summary
- WWE 2K24's Global Superstars DLC pack released two days earlier than announced on September 18, 2024
- Characters like Carlito, Kairi Sane, Michelle McCool make a return, with new additions like Jade Cargill.
WWE 2K24's Global Superstars DLC pack will come out two days earlier than previously announced. Some of the most awaited WWE 2K24 characters are included in this set. While the returning Nia Jax was only missing in WWE 2K23, many Superstars in this pack are either returning from a long absence or appearing in-game for the first time.
Besides Nia Jax, WWE 2K24's Global Superstars pack includes the likes of Carlito, Kairi Sane, and Michelle McCool, who have not appeared in games in recent years. However, three brand-new Superstars will also be included in this pack. Lyra Valkyria, Dragon Lee, and Jade Cargill, who was also part of AEW Fight Forever's roster, will be making their WWE 2K games debut. What's even more good news is that it's been reported that the DLC will be launching earlier than expected.
WWE 2K Players Are Adding Marvel Characters Like Deadpool and Wolverine to Their Games
WWE 2K players expand their fantasy roster by adding famous Marvel Superheroes such as Deadpool and Wolverine to their game.
According to WWE 2K24's Twitter post, the Global Superstars pack will come out on September 18, 2024. The original press release had the date marked September 20, 2024. While no reason has been given out regarding the change, many fans speculated that the previous schedule was an error since September 20 is a Friday, and DLC normally become available on Wednesdays. The Twitter announcement also included a preview of Jade Cargill's entrance motion, which sees her taking off her jacket under her special spotlight. While WWE's Jade Cargill is known to dress up, her WWE 2K24 attire looks to be inspired by her WrestleMania 40 appearance.

Many praised the accuracy of Cargill's appearance in the game. And although Cargill was missing the paint she donned during WrestleMania 40, a lot of players were happy that she didn't have the designs on her WWE 2K24 model. This meant that fans who enjoy using the Creation Suite could easily add her face and body paint or change her attire. The non-painted look also makes it easier for her to blend in, should players wish to pair her up with real-life tag team partner Bianca Belair using WWE 2K24's Edit Teams function.
With two more DLC packs remaining, and 2K Games regularly adding new character models to WWE 2K24, the game is shaping up to be the WWE 2K game with the biggest roster. While some would argue that the many duplicates would negate that point, the amount of variety available from both current and legendary Superstars is still amazing. Rumored upcoming additions like "Big Poppa Pump" Scott Steiner, and multiple versions of CM Punk will give fans from all decades a great experience.
