This will be the first time that this incarnation of McIntyre will appear in a 2K videogame. WWE 13 was published by THQ and not 2K Sports.<\/p>\n<p>Fans are excited about McIntyre\u2019s iconic \u201cBroken Dreams\u201d theme song being included in the game. McIntyre has not walked out to the theme in over a decade. However, it was used in an entrance package to rile up the Cardiff crowd at Clash at the Castle in 2022.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Broken Dreams Is BACK!

Both Kane and Styles had retro versions of themselves added to the MyFaction mode recently as persona cards.<\/p>\n<p>Drew McIntyre 10\u2019 will be added to MyFaction soon; however, the nature in which to acquire him is unknown. For reference, Retro AJ Styles can be acquired through winning a sequence of Live Event challenges. On the other hand, Kane 03 is a collection set reward for the Hellfire pack series.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_131981\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-131981\" style=\"width: 640px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-131981 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/prowrestling\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2025\/03\/WCCFwwe2k258-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"WWE 2K25: 10 People Who Could Fill The Mystery Celebrity DLC Slots\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" srcset=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/prowrestling\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2025\/03\/WCCFwwe2k258-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/prowrestling\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2025\/03\/WCCFwwe2k258-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/prowrestling\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2025\/03\/WCCFwwe2k258-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/prowrestling\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2025\/03\/WCCFwwe2k258-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/prowrestling\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2025\/03\/WCCFwwe2k258.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-131981\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Photo Credit: WWE\/2K Games<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>MyFaction is a pay-to-win\/loot box-heavy game mode similar to Madden and EAFC\u2019s Ultimate Team.
