WWE 2K16 DLC Includes Rowdy Roddy Piper And Other Legends

2K announced today that they've got an extensive DLC schedule planned for WWE 2K16. The game's downloadable content will introduce loads of characters to the game's already sizable roster.

While there are a few NXT stars in the mix, the DLC is definitely slanted toward Hall of Famers. You can get Rowdy Roddy Piper, Dusty Rhodes, Big Boss Man and many other past superstars. The Hall of Famer Pack also lets you relive many classic showdowns from through WWE history.

The developers are also throwing in some shortcuts. The MyPlayer KickStart gives PS4 and Xbox One owners extra bonuses for their custom superstars. The Accelerator will let you immediately access all unlockable content in the game.
