‘WWE 2K15’ Announced For PC, Comes With Free DLC

2K Games has announced that last years wrestlefest, “WWE 2K 15” is headed to PC on April 28. While PC gamers have had to wait longer than they would have liked, the PC version comes chock full of content, as 2K have packed in every piece of DLC released for the game thus far.

The news comes via the official WWE website, and follows the announcement that WWE 2K is now available for download on mobile devices.

“I grew up playing games on my PC, Texas Instruments, Commodore 64, I was a huge PC gamer growing up, so this is big. Not only for our fans, but for me personally as well, fans may not know this, but I was such a huge PC gamer that I bought a living room entertainment system just to play PC games back in the day,” he said.
