Its been a minute since WWE 2K20 received a fresh batch of superstars but threat not my rambunctious dudes, Southpaw Regional Wrestling is about to take us back to the golden era of wrestling: 1987. As part of the new 2K Originals, cult-classic vignette series Southpaw Regional Wrestling is about to be brought to life in WWE 2K20 in less than 24 hours.

Players will be able to get their grubby mitts on the likes of Big Bart Bartholomew, The Sea Creature and the menacing Mr. Mackelroy and throw down in the vibrant new arenas Summer Breakout and Max Headlock’s. We’ll be thrown right into the heyday of Southpaw as part of the new Showcase mode and Original Towers, giving us a taste of what was when the true titans of professional wrestling did battle. With brand new voice-overs, custom parts and themed weaponry available at our disposal, Southpaw is ready to give 2K20 a much needed face-lift.

The following features will be free to access for gamers who purchased the 2K20 season pass, or from midnight today:

New Showcase

Southpaw Regional Wrestling kicks off with its biggest show of the summer, but there’s just one problem. Evil banker Mr. Mackelroy (Tyler Breeze) has purchased the company and intends to destroy it!

Fortunately for the Southpaw crew, fine print in the contract includes a loophole allowing Southpaw to win back ownership. They must beat Mr. Mackelroy’s intimidating squad in a best-of-five series of matches. Can they do the impossible and beat the bully?

New Story Towers

  • “Cult of Rasslersize” – Misfit Molly (Becky Lynch) finds herself in the presence of hottest new workout trend, Rasslersize. These aerobics fitness freaks want Misfit Molly to join, and they’re not taking no for an answer.
  • “What Goes Around…” – Mr. Mackelroy (Tyler Breeze) finds himself on the wrong side of a business deal gone wrong, and a shadowy figure has sent a band of debt collectors disguised as a glam rock band to collect his debt.
  • “Tower of Prep” – The Perth Preppies (The IIconics) are bratty rich kids who believe they deserve a shot at Southpaw’s Women’s Tag Championship, but the rest of the women’s division has other plans.
  • “A Man and his Chickens” – Big Bartholomew (Rusev) lives a simple life. He wrestles and cares for his chickens. Mr. Mackelroy has kidnapped his chickens and plans to turn them into nuggets unless Big Bart can make it through his gauntlet of goons. At the end of it all, the terrible Sea Creature awaits.
  • “Street Ninja Showdown” – Ninjas have kidnapped Zack Ryder’s girlfriend, who also happens to be the President of the United States. Street Zack Ryder and Street Curt Hawkins hit the pavement to rescue her in a throwback to beat ‘em up games.

 New WWE Superstar Characters:

  • Georgia Washington (Charlotte Flair)
  • Dosvetanya (Lana)
  • Bad Hair Day (Ember Moon)
  • Misfit Molly (Becky Lynch)
  • Samantha Urai (Kairi Sane)
  • Sasha Memorybanks (Sasha Banks)
  • Bay Lee Billionaire (Bayley)

And More

Speaking of much needed new features, alongside this week’s new DLC instalment, all players will be privy to the latest patch 1.07. 2K are set to address the handful of glitches and bugs still wreaking havoc inside 2K20, hopefully we’ll finally be able to enjoy a seamless simulation of Southpaw’s greatest moments. Players who haven’t purchased the season pass, or opt out of installing the Southpaw 2K original will still be able to access patch 1.07, expect the update to drop around midnight today.
