Brock Lesnar is the cover star for this year’s WWE video game.
2K Sports announced Monday that Lesnar will be on the cover for “WWE 2K17,” joining Bill Goldberg as the headline playable characters.
It marks the second consecutive year that a non-regular roster member has been on the cover, following “Stone Cold” Steve Austin for WWE 2K16.
According to 2K’s announcement on Monday, Lesnar will be part of a “worldwide marketing campaign” that will “invite fans to explore a new side of Lesnar’s inspired world while learning more about the video game.”
My career has been defined by dominating every opportunity presented to me,” Lesnar was quoted in a press release. “I am excited for my newest opportunity representing WWE 2K17 as the franchise’s ambassador and honored to serve as the WWE 2K17 cover Superstar.”
The video game is out out October 11 on the PlayStation 4 PlayStation 3 systems, as well as Xbox One and Xbox 360.
Pre-orders come with two playable Goldberg characters and two WCW arenas.
