CM Punk speaks out on absence from WWE 2k24 game
As WWE 2K24 gears up for its impending release, it unveiled several new features to excite fans. However, CM Punk’s initial absence from the game, including any future DLC plans, prompted him to initiate an inquiry.
Taking to social media, CM Punk addressed the situation, acknowledging his exclusion from the game’s initial roster. He admitted to being aware of his late return to WWE, which consequently led to his omission.
Punk stated, “And I know this because the fans are going crazy, they’re asking where I’m at and asking how come I’m not in the video game. So, I decided to make it my thing to try to get to the bottom of this, because the fans are demanding that I be put in this video game. Now I’m not a video game guy, so I don’t know how fast they can do this, but like I said, we’re gonna try to get to the bottom of this, and I’m gonna tag them here just to put some pressure on. Let’s put some feet to fire today, ladies and gentlemen.”
With CM Punk’s addition to WWE 2K24’s latest DLC version, fans’ wishes are finally granted. WWE 2K24 will offer three editions: Deluxe, Forty Years of WrestleMania, and Standard. These editions are all set for global release on March 8, 2024.
