WWE 2K23 may have more unannounced content to be found, as two new John Cena variants were recently discovered by fans. Some gamers are already playing WWE 2K23 via early access which has led to a lot of new findings and feedback. The game is currently available via early access as stated, but the standard edition will officially be playable on March 17, 2023.
During the weeks leading up to its release WWE 2K23 has been announcing surprise characters and other features present in the game. Names such as Mighty Molly, Jean-Paul Levesque, and Tyler Breeze were just some of the superstars revealed that were not part of the official roster announcement. With the title heavily focusing on the roster, fans have expected that some versions of popular characters may be present or may appear in the game, but they have not been officially declared. However, two unexpected variants are joining WWE 2K23's lineup as found by various gamers.
Two more surprising versions of John Cena have been spotted in-game. The first additional character is Super Cena, a tongue-in-cheek reference to Cena's "You Can't See Me" one-liner. This variant is literally invisible which makes for a crazy visual, and can be seen during one of the bonus matches in Showcase mode. The second one is the Action Figure John Cena, which is literally a toy version of the cover star. At the moment, the Action Figure version seems to be exclusive to WWE 2K23's MyFaction. As with the previous years, it might stay locked to that mode, but some fans were able to find a way to export them in last year's game.
With 2K really trying to improve WWE 2K23's MyFaction, it's great to find surprises such as the Action Figure John Cena. The model's graphics literally look like a toy figure inserted into the game. Hopefully, they can use this variant on other superstars as well. This might be a good template to start on should 2K consider doing a follow-up to WWE Battlegrounds. While the surprise was highly unexpected and came out of nowhere, for an extra mode like MyFaction, it feels like it blends in well.
This year's game really feels like a celebration of John Cena's career. Many versions of Cena populate the game's roster. WWE 2K23 did well by including The Prototype, the Doctor of Thuganomics, and now two new additional alternates of Cena. Fans of the cover star will really enjoy this year's entry into the series. Hopefully, more new variants for other characters are also discovered in the future to keep the gameplay fresh.
WWE 2K23 releases on March 17 on PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
