Two of WWE’s greatest Superstars have key roles within the new Road Fighter film releasing in theaters later this week. It is solely truthful that Paramount and Capcom give one thing again to WWE in return. That return present has now been revealed to be official Road Fighter DLC that can add new seems to be and even strikes from the enduring combating sequence to WWE 2K26.
WWE 2K26 Is Getting Road Fighter DLC
A primary have a look at the Road Fighter Elite Pack was proven off in a trailer throughout IGN Fan Fest. It featured motion figure-style variations of Dominik Mysterio and Rey Mysterio, just like the toy skins Superstars have had within the 2K video games for a couple of years now. The important thing distinction is Dominik’s new pores and skin has him wanting like Road Fighter’s Ken, whereas Rey is dressed as Ryu.
The DLC will go properly past simply letting sure wrestlers cosplay as Road Fighter characters. After Dominik and Rey enter the ring, we reduce to gameplay of the daddy and son combating dressed as Ryu and Ken. Combating is the precise phrase for it too, despite the fact that that is technically DLC for a wrestling recreation. The 2 of them largely throw punches and kicks, and we’re solely actually proven motion from a side-on perspective, similar to in Road Fighter and different traditional combating video games.
I’ve nonetheless not revealed the very best half. In direction of the tip of the primary have a look at the crossover DLC, we’re proven Dominik and Rey utilizing iconic strikes from the Road Fighter universe. Dom’s up first as he hits his outdated man with a Shoryuken. That is the uppercut that sends opponents flying up into the air. Oh, and the individual delivering the transfer’s fist is on hearth. Rey then replies by firing a Hadouken again at his son. Maybe probably the most well-known transfer in all of Road Fighter, the place Ryu fires a fireball at his opponent. That is proper, you’ll try this in WWE 2K26 quickly.
The Rock, Bianca Belair, And Final Warrior Are Additionally Getting Road Fighter Makeovers
The DLC can be accessible, presumably to purchase, from October 28, 2026, and you will naturally have to personal the bottom recreation to make use of it, and it’ll embody Road Fighter makeovers for extra than simply Rey and Dom. Different crossover characters will embody The Rock as Road Fighter’s closing boss, M. Bison, Final Warrior as Akuma, and Bianca Belair dressed as Cammy. An odd alternative contemplating Liv Morgan was reportedly thought-about for the function of Cammy within the Road Fighter film, however an damage meant she wasn’t accessible.
It is also odd that, so far as I can inform, Cody Rhodes and Roman Reigns will not be a part of this DLC. Rhodes is Guile within the film, and Reigns performs Akuma. You’d suppose, if something, the WWE 2K26 Road Fighter DLC would come with their film variations as playable characters, however seemingly not.
