The worlds of basketball and wrestling collide in the new Dunk and Destruction Pack for WWE 2K25. This second DLC drop adds five playable characters, wild new weapons, over 30 moves and taunts, and a wave of content updates across the game.
Leading the lineup is Shaquille O’Neal, the NBA Hall of Famer and four-time champion, making his full debut in WWE 2K. A longtime wrestling fan, Shaq’s presence adds size and spectacle to the ring. He’s joined by two current NBA stars, Tyrese Haliburton, the Indiana Pacers’ All-Star and assists leader, and Jalen Brunson, captain of the New York Knicks. Both have made recent appearances on WWE SmackDown, bringing their on-court rivalry to a new arena.
On the wrestling side, the pack features the long-awaited arrival of Abyss, the masked monster known for brutal matches and his infamous spiked 2×4, Janice. Also joining the roster is The Great Khali, the towering former World Heavyweight Champion and WWE Hall of Famer, known for his massive chops and unstoppable strength.
For the first time in franchise history, players can use a basketball as a weapon. Whether thrown at opponents or worked into combos, it adds a fun new twist to in-ring action. The DLC also includes more than 30 new moves and taunts, including Abyss’s Black Hole Slam and Khali’s Vise Grip.
Each of the five new characters comes with a matching MyFACTION card for use in the game’s team-building mode. In addition, new MyFACTION updates roll out alongside the pack, including the Amethyst Token Market, which opened June 23, and the Bloodline card pack arriving June 26.
