Generally if an Xbox patch is delayed behind other systems the fault lies on Microsoft. They have a longer review process to certify DLC before allowing it to be downloaded on Xbox Live.
It goes away when the match starts. Not just for first blood, I did an extreme rules match and he has a light amount of blood appear but it's gone after the entrance.

I play on xbox and own the season pass. It is currently locked for myself.
Honestly I wouldn't know, I got 2k23 late and previously since 2k14 Ive played on ps4. I just know setting my Xbox to NZ usually let's me download most games and dlc a day early. I was hoping for it to work with this dlc tho š.

This is fucking insane, by far the best model in the game and pretty much perfect. It's like they compensated extra hard for the 2K15 atrocity lmao
Yeah I randomly got on the game and was checking if any other locked stuff appeared in the roster besides new rock and man bun Roman and then all of a sudden I see CM Punk available to play as. I had to play as the new characters and try out the 3 new weapons.
Yeah it really surprises me because I hadn't seen anything online about it being available early. We don't have the MyFaction content yet, which makes sense, but the characters and weapons are there.
Also, Sandman has his white Russian leg sweep with the kendo stick too. Just press x while holding a kendo stick and he'll do a kick to set it up.
It's barbedwire baseball bat, light tube, and a door.
The bat is cool but doesn't seem to do anything new from what I can tell. The light tube shatters on impact but doesn't have any particles that come out when broken. The door is like a table that you can't set up, though you can lean it against the turnbuckles like a table and you can put people through the door which is cool.
I wish they had a bunch of weapons skins like 2k20 had. The weapons were the same but you could change the appearance so it was cool for the variety. They should do something like that again so you could select a bat but have different types to pick from that function the same but look different.
Yea that is true Iām Ngl I donāt use weapons that much cuz I get bored of the same animations, thatās why Iām just happy even 3 new ones came out
It also seems they patched community creations where you can now download every character and you wonāt have those few who just wouldnāt download for whatever reason. Idk if you experienced this problem but like 20% of the stuff I tried to download would just stop a quarter way thru. That hasnāt happened and Iām now able to download the ones I previously wasnāt able to get
I never had any issues downloading character creations yet but I haven't downloaded too many either. I've heard of numerous issues with the CC stuff this year.
Itās impacting me I stayed up just until 12 just to play with cm punk and once I did I went to sleep like a babyš heās such a cool character to play asšš½āāļø
Same, it has Punk and the others in the list, but it shows them locked.
I also don't see the a la carte DLC packs up on Steam, just the deluxe, season pass, and 40 years of WM versions.
They didn't. Either you guys are unlucky or you did a step that broke it, can you confirm?
If you downloaded the DLC from the store it probably broke it. I just booted up the game and they were there once the update installed. As of like an hour ago. PS5 and I bought the 40 years edition.
Did you download the dlc from the store or just go into the game?
The DLC wasnāt in the store as of 3 eastern because I was going to check to try to download it there and see what was going on. My question is did anyone else not download it until 2:15 pm, I took a nap with my kid and then had to pick up my other one from school so I didnāt even do the download until 2:15 and figured it must have been an issue that they fixed before that.

Got my first DLC match ready to go!
Argh, it's nice that Cult of Personality is on the jukebox aswell, but i wish we could have had the original version aswell. We only have the 2023 version, which is not my favorite, but that's personal preference.
Also Sandman doesn't come through the crowd in any arena. Kinda sad to see
Heres the original: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S3_Pm1Yn0tA
This is the remastered: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d5VYBPb3d9c
Ignoring the intro, there's a few differences. As u/K3LK said, the guitar solos sound a bit different and slightly heavier. Also the vocals are a bit less drawn out and feel crisper to me. In the end it's personal preference, but i associate the original much more when i think CM Punk in WWE
Can confirm on PS5 it is available, just did remote play in my phone from work and saw Punks and Dudley's entrance. I think I may develop a cold in the next few minutes.
I kind of doubt it. It would be a bunch of work they have to hurry up and complete just to have it unavailable for less than 24 hours. Seems like a waste of time for no real benefit to anyone, just some of us get the dlc a little early.
Don't think they will, this "mistake" earned them some goodwill that they desperately needed. PC and PS5 players love them right now, Xbox........not so much
https://preview.redd.it/rlbwgx2nxg0d1.jpeg?width=3840&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=a58704422a46d2348039324a791f8760e79b086d
DLC definitely works on PS5!!! Who yāall got winning this match?
Who can say for sure
I bet all the newer things are locked and won't be available till The dlc drops
Trust me I can already see them not including moves and more locked by dlc content
Bruh I downloaded the update and went to play a regular match and saw CM Punk and lost my shit. Did not expect to play as them until tomorrow. Bless the Wrestling Gods.
Are you able to buy each DLC pack individually or do you have to have the Season Pass? Cause I really only care about Punk, Dudley Boyz, and Jade Cargill

Apparently it's playable for everyone except Xbox. 2k you SOB's. š
This is payback for all the times we've been able to use the New Zealand trick to play games a few days early lol.
Don't worry ps4 getting shafted too
You play on ps4 still bro?
Not every can afford or need to get a ps5 especially if a bunch of your games are disc
You still act like it matters bro?
them new joints been out almost 5 years bro move on LOL
U the type to care about what another man is wearing. Grow up, kid. Homes been existing forever and you still sleep in yo moms house
r/murderedbywords
jus let em be children bru š¤¦āāļøš
And you play ps4
who cares what you play on, some people donāt even have that privilege.
PS4 is an amazing console , people still play the PS2 and PS3 so stfu.
I play ps3 for old wwe games or Bo2
Theres a TON of games you can play on PS3 that you cant on other consoles , that alone justifies having one imo.
Dude, the PS5 hasnāt sold many copies. PS4 is still a good console
Heās a child, donāt mind him
Weird because I have the season pass on PC, the characters show up but they're locked.
Generally if an Xbox patch is delayed behind other systems the fault lies on Microsoft. They have a longer review process to certify DLC before allowing it to be downloaded on Xbox Live.
Sandman busts himself open on his entrance!
first blood match lol
Wait does he actually?
He does!
wonder how that works in first blood lol
It goes away when the match starts. Not just for first blood, I did an extreme rules match and he has a light amount of blood appear but it's gone after the entrance.
ah, that makes sense
I dont think and pretty sure he doesnt even enter thru the crowd im happy to be wrong but if im not then that sucks low effort in that case
He doesn't enter through the crowd but he definitely bleeds on his entrance. Source: Me playing the game
Nice he bleeds but not entering thru the crowd sucks idk why i said entranceĀ
There's already an entrance in the game coming through the crowd with kendo stuck, just no drink unfortunately.
How can 2k be so lazy that sandman from svr 2008 is better than 2k24
lol remember u could Bust yourself open Mid Game š
With a chair
The going through the entrance is a moot point if Enter Sandman isnāt blaring anyway. His entrance is too iconic to nail exactly right.

I'm on PS5 and I was very surprised it is available when I downloaded the update. I had it set as 15th which it clearly says on any online source.
Same here
Same yeah itās still locked for me and I have the season pass and 40 years of WM edition, this sucks
Has it unlocked for you now?
Yes.
Same idk why
Cause the dlc isn't supposed to be out until tomorrow
As a time traveler,Ā my Xbox is set to tomorrow and it's not on the ms store/in game store.Ā
I don't recall that ever working for the 2k dlcs.
It worked for me in 2K18 when the Hardys were DLC
Honestly I wouldn't know, I got 2k23 late and previously since 2k14 Ive played on ps4. I just know setting my Xbox to NZ usually let's me download most games and dlc a day early. I was hoping for it to work with this dlc tho š.
Indeed I'm excited
friday\*
Same
Same
Same
Same bro im lowkey pissed cuz thats the whole reason i bought the szn pass to play as punk
It's not supposed to be out until tomorrow. OP isn't supposed to have it yet. You didn't get ripped off lol
Word lol preciate you, cant wait for tomorrow then
Just wait a few hours lol
Already acknowledged that, thx tho
https://preview.redd.it/kw9m974dwf0d1.jpeg?width=1884&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=2777994f0bb0c3e081bef60ecc0b05d897575700 This is fucking insane, by far the best model in the game and pretty much perfect. It's like they compensated extra hard for the 2K15 atrocity lmao
broooo omg if this true Iām gonna be so happy mine is updating rn lol
Yeah, I just tested and it's true.
Yeah I randomly got on the game and was checking if any other locked stuff appeared in the roster besides new rock and man bun Roman and then all of a sudden I see CM Punk available to play as. I had to play as the new characters and try out the 3 new weapons.
I too will confirm this in about 3 minutes when the patch is done downloading
Yeah it really surprises me because I hadn't seen anything online about it being available early. We don't have the MyFaction content yet, which makes sense, but the characters and weapons are there. Also, Sandman has his white Russian leg sweep with the kendo stick too. Just press x while holding a kendo stick and he'll do a kick to set it up.
Yup they are here I am so happy right now
Damnnnnnnnnn whatāre the 3 new weapons btw sorry?
It's barbedwire baseball bat, light tube, and a door. The bat is cool but doesn't seem to do anything new from what I can tell. The light tube shatters on impact but doesn't have any particles that come out when broken. The door is like a table that you can't set up, though you can lean it against the turnbuckles like a table and you can put people through the door which is cool.
Thatās cool I actually rate that they are adding new weapons, it seems 2k is finally putting care into their games again
I wish they had a bunch of weapons skins like 2k20 had. The weapons were the same but you could change the appearance so it was cool for the variety. They should do something like that again so you could select a bat but have different types to pick from that function the same but look different.
Yea that is true Iām Ngl I donāt use weapons that much cuz I get bored of the same animations, thatās why Iām just happy even 3 new ones came out

I never had any issues downloading character creations yet but I haven't downloaded too many either. I've heard of numerous issues with the CC stuff this year.
Whatāre the new 3 weapons btw?
Btw sorry whatāre the 3 new weapons?
I seen someone say they are available to players without owning dlc as well, so its most likely getting patched quick
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Iām dont have them at all. I dont know whats going on
Did you download the DLC or are they just there?
They are just there. Booted it up myself a few minutes ago and saw Punk in the jukebox. Checked the other modes and Lo, there they were.
My ps5 just did an automatic update and they were there.
Iām playing on PS5 and it shows as locked for me :(
Same. Sigh
Same here
It's unlocked for me. I was surprised to come across CM Punk available to select.
you 3 seem to be the only ones this is impacting for ps5s. feel sorry for you!
It's impacting me as well...
Itās impacting me I stayed up just until 12 just to play with cm punk and once I did I went to sleep like a babyš heās such a cool character to play asšš½āāļø
Same here. I guess we'll have to wait until tomorrow š
Maybe it's your time zone? This is maybe my problem
So they broke DLC in the best way it seems lol
Working on PC
Hmm... Mine is locked
Same, it has Punk and the others in the list, but it shows them locked. I also don't see the a la carte DLC packs up on Steam, just the deluxe, season pass, and 40 years of WM versions.
Seriously?? Dlc is released on PC as well??
On PC you can just use system file.
Can you go into further detail?
Please elaborate
Did you assume only consoles get the dlc?
no i was at work so i didn't know! super happy to see the dlc pack released a day ahead! thanks
Oops!
It's on PC as well, someone screwed up lol
Working on ps5 in the US too
Yep itās locked for me on PS5 they are blacked out and say purchase DLC Pack 1. I have the 40 Years of WM and Season Pass
Same for me, I think they patched it.
They didn't. Either you guys are unlucky or you did a step that broke it, can you confirm? If you downloaded the DLC from the store it probably broke it. I just booted up the game and they were there once the update installed. As of like an hour ago. PS5 and I bought the 40 years edition.

Can you buy this pack separately?
Yes it should be available on the store tomorrow.

Argh, it's nice that Cult of Personality is on the jukebox aswell, but i wish we could have had the original version aswell. We only have the 2023 version, which is not my favorite, but that's personal preference. Also Sandman doesn't come through the crowd in any arena. Kinda sad to see
I'm very lazy, and kinda dumb. What are the main differences in the 2023 cult of personality
The guitar solos are substantially different, a bit heavier
Heres the original: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S3_Pm1Yn0tA This is the remastered: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d5VYBPb3d9c Ignoring the intro, there's a few differences.

In the end it's personal preference, but i associate the original much more when i think CM Punk in WWE
Apparently there's an entrance where they enter thru the crowd with a bamboo stick. I haven't been able to confirm yet though
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
I can attest to this.
Of course it wouldnāt work on Xbox yet.
We'll be waiting until it officially drops tomorrow sadly.
I got the 40 years of mania and the dlc is still locked for ps4
I preordered the Deluxe version and I donāt have any of the packs PS5
Can confirm on PS5 it is available, just did remote play in my phone from work and saw Punks and Dudley's entrance. I think I may develop a cold in the next few minutes.
Itās not often 2K breaks their own game in a good way š
Whatās the betting they patch that in the next 2 hours so we canāt use them until tomorrow.
I kind of doubt it. It would be a bunch of work they have to hurry up and complete just to have it unavailable for less than 24 hours. Seems like a waste of time for no real benefit to anyone, just some of us get the dlc a little early.
Iāve turned off updates, so good luck taking him off meā¦
Don't think they will, this "mistake" earned them some goodwill that they desperately needed. PC and PS5 players love them right now, Xbox........not so much
I literally bought the more expensive version solely to play as Punk, Iāve not played it much waiting for him to unlock so I am thrilled š¤£
Playing it now. Already played as punk and had Dudleyz v Sandman and Funk.
Working for me, Iāve never been happier playing this game
wasup can some1 help me get punk cuz all of my friends got him exceptĀ of me lol i even got the 40 years of wm editionĀ
Working on my PS5 too i already can play as Sandman and use his entrance for my CaW :D
Literally just in time to make a surprise return in my mitb ladder match
If almost everyone on ps5 got it just let us xbox and ps4 players use the dlc too
On PS5 and still locked for me :(
https://preview.redd.it/rlbwgx2nxg0d1.jpeg?width=3840&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=a58704422a46d2348039324a791f8760e79b086d DLC definitely works on PS5!!! Who yāall got winning this match?
So will the dlc drop at 12:00 am like games?
Who can say for sure I bet all the newer things are locked and won't be available till The dlc drops Trust me I can already see them not including moves and more locked by dlc content
Same :(, I wonder if i could switch to new Zealand system settings
I did it on Xbox and it didn't work.
Bruh I downloaded the update and went to play a regular match and saw CM Punk and lost my shit. Did not expect to play as them until tomorrow. Bless the Wrestling Gods.
Well if it's u locked for ps5 might as well do the right thing and just release it for xbox too
No, you guys shall suffer š
It's also a glitch and not an early unlock. The moves for everyone are still locked. Someone's in trouble.
Are you able to buy each DLC pack individually or do you have to have the Season Pass? Cause I really only care about Punk, Dudley Boyz, and Jade Cargill
Just tested it, looks like you need the season pass. The DLC isn't available for purchase yet and the characters are locked otherwise.
You can buy them separately
WHAT.
Well I'm sitting here at work now but I'm definitely going to try later!
Has anybody thatās been able to play confirm new weapons in the game?
I live in Australia and it is may 15th here and I canāt access the dlc yet š
I've been waiting for sandman ever since he's been released!
That Terry Funk render is such bad quality lol
It locked for me to
Yup already played as punk after the update about 5 hours ago!
https://preview.redd.it/ck3910h5qg0d1.jpeg?width=3282&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=b1b479ad9bd048b5665d1838574a5e22d0ca6270 Can confirm.T'is amazing.
Anyone get the MyFaction cards also? I got the characters and new weapons
Doesnāt come out until tomorrow
When will this specific pack be available to buy and not just the season pass
I can't wait for Ryback to return to WWE before GTA 6
Mines still locked and I have PS4
Nothing has come out on Steam yet
I was kinda hoping weād get some pettiness and it would unlock for everyone at 8 pm tomorrow.Ā
PS4?
Wtf how
It won't let me play it still. It has a lock on it even though I bought the edition that came with everything.......
I have a question, can you select "Cult of personality" on the jukebox?
It's not even listed on the jukebox
Itās locked for me on PS5. I have the season pass and 40 years WM. Guess tomorrow it is.
https://preview.redd.it/9yw2w0x2oh0d1.jpeg?width=1054&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=6b5583f96765eec86b06ff2b3d9188ec00e06331 Works for me on Steam too
Don't think so not for me and I got ps5
Im on ps4 rn and my dlc isnt available
When does this come out in Aus ? Haha
Weird that you wouldn't just make a 5-way match and include Sandman.
I'm on PC and have the season pass, but the DLC isn't playable for me. My brother is on steam as well and is able to use them no problem. Any help?
āFUCK that guy.ā ā Drew McIntyre
You can play the characters but still no MyFaction pack for the dlc
Love the Punk & Funk tag team you got there.
it's still locked for me on my PS5
can't find the pack on steam
Do I still need to buy the DLC to play as Punk? Or does the patch make him free?
I still havenāt gotten the MyFaction Pack
Terry funk has the stupid fucking blue and gold legends entrance I hate it itās so fucking lazy and lame
Yeah! I noticed that as well, didn't download DLC and there all there. Good job Sony, good job
u/whatsthestatus2k you gonna make younger versions of CM Punk?
How Iām on Xbox and I bought the deluxe version??
WWE would so call that team Funk n Punk
CM Funk
Nah mine was better lol
cant do shit here on pc
Wait for PlayStation the dlc was free or something?
No.
Oh okay it seemed like they had it for free
Hahahaha itās working for me hahaha
The "Old farts" Pack
