The WWE Games development team took to their Twitter account prior to the weekend to answer questions from fans regarding the game and the next-gen release.
Highlights of the questions asked are below:
1.) Is the paint tool feature removed from WWE 2K15 on PS4/XB1?
Yes, the Paint Tool is removed, but we’ll be announcing a new feature that goes far beyond the Paint Tool in PS3/X360.
2.) Can you be in a tag team for MyCareer mode?
MyCareer focuses on an individual’s own journey and attributes. Unfortunately, you can’t go through this mode as part of a tag team.
3.) Will the Universe mode have online multiplayer?
No, Universe Mode will not have online multiplayer, but players on all consoles will be able to share the same experience.
4.) Is the Main Menu of WWE 2K15 different on the PS4/XB1 or are they the same as on PS3/X360?
PS4/XB1 players will see a brand new main menu this year
5.) When is Paige coming out?
Paige’s in-game character is being finalized now; we hope to announce her release date very soon.
6.) Why is the roster so weak compared to recent games?
WWE 2K14 included 30 Years of WrestleMania, which added many roster members. WWE 2K15 is focusing on the future of WWE, including NXT, but also has many legendary characters, like the debut of Sting.
7.) Can we expect any videos of gameplay or more entrances on YouTube anytime soon?
Yes, you can expect to see new entrances sooner than you may think.
8.) Will Dean Ambrose and Seth Rollins have their new attires?
Ambrose and Rollins will not have their new attires, but you can create alternate ones for them in our Creation Suite.
9.) Does WWE 2K15 on next-gen PS4/XB1 still have Superstar Threads even though Visual Concepts is in the game?
We have more than Superstar Threads for WWE 2K15 on next-gen. More information to come soon.
10.) How many WWE Superstars got face-scanned for the game?
Over 90% of the WWE Superstars participate in facial scanning for WWE 2K15.
11.) Will we be able to use custom music for our entrance like on last-gen with next-gen since PS4’s can now use USB’s for music?
Being that it’s a new release for PS4, it’s something that we’ll look at for the future.
12.) Will we be able to execute finishers at any moment like past games or will it require a set up or the new charged finishers?
Players need to build up momentum in order to execute both signature and finishing moves.
13.) How long does the MyCareer mode run. Will it just run one show season?
MyCareer can span up to roughly 15 years, especially if you play through as both a fan favorite or rule breaker.
14.) This new way of keeping attires updated on PS4/XB1, will this include the Divas too?
You can edit Divas with the same tools that we offer for the Superstars.
15.) Can we get an option to remove gamertags over the Superstars when they’re fighting?
Gamertags are part of our requirements for meeting compliance with our first-party partners.
16.) Are you going to ban people who download hacked movesets and use them to win matches online this year?
We have an aggressive moderation progra in place for WWE 2K15 and will continue improving this every year. We banned more people for WWE 2K14 versus any previous year and take community response very seriously.
17.) Are there more than 100 CAW save slots this year?
PS3/X360 players will have 100 CAW slots, for PS4/XB1 players, there will be 25 slots, which pushes first-party limits given the visual fidelity of the Superstars. We are working hard to increase this number in the future.
18.) Any WCW arenas in the game this year?
There are no WCW arenas available this year.
19.) Can we have 8 Superstars in the ring on next-gen?
No, players will be able to compete with 6 Superstars in the ring.
20.) Will there ever be a feature online that allows for us to have leagues as a lot are part of e-Feds?
We don’t have this feature in WWE 2K15, but this is a great idea that we’d love to possibly support in the future.
21.) Will you be showing gameplay before launch? Everyone really wants to see how it differs from the PS3/X360 version
We’ve been showing cool gameplay in our trailer, making of series, TV spots and weekly entrance/moves features. More information will be released very soon.
22.) Does the commentary on the PS3/X360 versions differ from PS4/XB1 versions?
All games will share the same commentary, but players may notice a more polished delivery on the PS4/XB1 versions.
23.) Will we see the new WWE World Heavyweight Championship on next-gen?
Unfortunately, no. The new Championship design was released in August, after the team’s deadline to make changes.
24.) Is Sid Justice playable or is he just a manager?
Sid Justice will appear as a referee and is therefore not playable in the game.
25.) Can we set entrances with managers for any Superstar? Example, Kofi escorted by Zeb Colter.
With the exception of Lana with Rusev, all other managers can be paired with any Superstar.
