Penguin Posted July 14, 2016 Share Posted July 14, 2016 (edited) A copy of the WWE 2K17 video game;Exclusive premium packaging;NXT Enhancement Pack:Playable NXT Superstars: Shinsuke Nakamura, Nia Jax and Apollo Crews;50 percent more points at NXT in MyCareer;Exclusive Canvas 2 Canvas lithograph designed by WWE artist Rob Schamberger and autographed by NXT Superstar Shinsuke Nakamura;Exclusive eight-inch “Demon” Finn Bálor collectible figurine;Exclusive Topps NXT TakeOver: London Mat Relics Card:2K Sports informed us that the NXT superstars will be available on launch day for those who purchase the NXT Edition for PlayStation 4 and Xbox One.The NXT Enhancement Pack--which includes the three stars--will be available for purchase later this year as downloadable content. PS3 and Xbox 360 players can purchase the NXT stars as DLC on launch day.Source: GamespotI also asked about the Digital Deluxe and whether it would include the NXT pack like the Hulkamania Pack was included in the Digital Deluxe for WWE 2K15, and was told “the Digital Deluxe Edition WILL NOT include the NXT Enhancement Pack.” I was not given a timetable for when the pack would be available to purchase or whether it would be a part of the season pass.I’m not a fan of holding active superstars behind a paywall like this. When it was the Hogan pack, Warrior pre-order bonus or even Goldberg this year as a pre-order bonus, they are all at least legends who weren’t on WWE programming on a weekly basis. In this case, fans of these three superstars have to buy the $100 NXT Edition to be able to play them on PS4/XB1 on launch. Especially for gamers who are digital only, you have no other recourse than to wait for the pack to be available on the respective digital storefronts.Source: Operation Sportshttps://wwe.2k.com/#preorder/wwe-2k17/wwe-2k17-collector-s-edition Edited July 14, 2016 by Penguin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tidal Posted July 14, 2016 Share Posted July 14, 2016 (edited) I haven't bought a physical version of a game since the ones that came with my PS4, but I have to say this is pretty tempting. I hope the digital deluxe version includes Shinsuke though. Edited July 14, 2016 by Tidal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So, let's do the math on this shall we?Collector's Edition with NXT Enhancement and Goldberg DLCs: $100+Season Pass: $25Grand Total: $125 Digital Deluxe Edition with Season Pass: $90NXT Enhancement DLC: ~$6 to $8Sub-Total: ~$96 to $98+Goldberg DLC if you don't pre-order: ~$5Grand Total: ~$101 to $103 Base Game: $60Season Pass: $25NXT Enhancement DLC: ~$6 to $8Sub-Total: ~$91 to $93+Goldberg DLC if you don't pre-order: ~$5Grand Total: ~$96 to $98 If you're going to be paying $100 on the game anyway, I guess you could pretend you bought the statue for $25. The downside is that it won't be digital and you can't split the price with a friend.Anywho, good show on predicting Nakamura's inclusion Joseph. Not only that, but with this announcement, he'll technically be Day One DLC for those purchasing the collector's item.But, pretty bullish that they're monetizing things further seeing that those who won't purchase the collector's edition will need to spend extra for Nakamura, Uhaa, and Nia. It's only going to get worse each year. Before the entrepreneur cavalry hops in to defend the business model, in perspective of the consumer, it's like a turd served on a platter except you're not only paying for the turd, but the plate, the napkins, the utensils, and the condiments on the table along with a mandatory tip all coupled together with tax.

Kopmeister Posted July 14, 2016 Share Posted July 14, 2016 Looks great, so I'm going to presume that some more NXT talent will be on the disc, strange that they pick Apollo (no longer NXT), Nia Jax (not a 'top' tier, but then again theres two top tier women in NXT) and Nak (shame that he is behind a paywall). So will we see Asuka, Bayley, American Alpha, Revival, Aries on the game? From this pack the only thing I'd really want is the ring relic since I was at that event but that stuff can bee got through the card packs. On top of all that its not even going to be on PC (the NXT edition) because we get the game 4 or 5 months late, by then we will get the NXT DLC for free. If I was playing on a console and had the money to throw down for this I would, but I don't play console and neither do I have the money. At least we can sort of guess that NXT will take larger presence in the game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrJoeyMagnum Posted July 14, 2016 Share Posted July 14, 2016 (edited) I'd say Aries won't be in the game, dlc would be a big maybeActually I keep forgetting he debuted on NXT before Shinsuke, he should be in the game if Nakamura's in it BTW from the box 16 people have been confirmed Aiden EnglishApollo CrewsAsukaBayleyBig CassBlakeDana BrookeDashDawsonEnzo AmoreFinn BalorMurphyNia JaxSamoa JoeShinsuke NakamuraSimon Gotch Edited July 14, 2016 by DrJoeyMagnumRyan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HiryuMK Posted July 14, 2016 Share Posted July 14, 2016 Is the NXT Edition only available on online stores or I should be able to pre-order it on Gamestop/EB Games? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the King Lives Posted July 14, 2016 Share Posted July 14, 2016 it does not come with the season pass so you're basically paying for Nakamura.. basically.i'm not that much into nxt. but i'll wait for them to release them like they did for Hogan/sting and Terminator/Terminator lolI already got the DDE preordered 89$ is money well spent. the only thing I guess I wouldn't be getting is the statue stuff. it's cool but i'm a grown man so it would just sit on a table getting dust.anyway I would have thought 2k would have just bundled the season pass with all bundles after the uproar 2k15 caused. we'll see how this pans out This should confirm American Alpha, Austin Aries, and Tye Dillinger as well.I wouldn't try to just go by pictures.. or anything like that unless confirmed by 2k.. we all know how that went last year with the 4HW Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
