There's a dark cloud over WWE at the moment, which is not what the company needs as it approaches WrestleMania 40. It's also the last thing 2K Games want with WWE 2K24 just weeks from release.

The recent sex trafficking lawsuit against Vince McMahon has mainly focused on those behind the curtain rather than current wrestlers, but there is one wrestler linked to the lawsuit, though not explicitly named, Brock Lesnar.

Is Brock Lesnar in WWE 2K24?

Under normal circumstances, Brock Lesnar would be one of the highest-rated wrestlers in WWE 2K24. However, these are not normal circumstances and Brock Lesnar isn't included in the WWE 2K24 roster.

It's worth noting that Lesnar was NOT included in a preview build of WWE 2K24 that RealSport played on 29 January, which already pointed to this end scenario.

Despite that, Lesnar is still present in two matches of this year's Showcase Mode, which is built around WrestleMania's greatest moments. However, apart from being able to play with him on the two Showcase Mode matches, fans can't play with "The Beast Incarnate".

As things stand, it seems WWE 2K23 will be the last entry of Brock Lesnar in the franchise.

From beating The Undertaker's streak at WrestleMania 30 to his wars against Roman Reigns, it was already expected that one of the Showcase chapters was focused on Lesnar. But many thought any reference to Lesnar would be removed from the game.

In WrestleMania XL, the name of Brock Lesnar was mentioned a handful of times, so there is a chance Lesnar will be back to the WWE shortly. However, that will only happen if Lesnar is cleared of all the accusations.

But just the fact WWE is once again comfortable with mentioning Lesnar's name, after removing him from the cover of WWE 2K24, is indicative that a return to WWE and WWE 2K24 is possible.
