WWE 2K15 will be released on October 28 in North America, and as expected, more details are continuously surfacing online, increasing the excitement for the upcoming wrestling video game.

If you are eager to get your hands on these upcoming game, then you should make sure to pre-order WWE 2K15 as reports indicated that there will pre-order bonus again this year.

Just Push Start reported that 2K Games and Amazon are working together to facilitate reservations for the highly-anticipated game, suggesting that there will be freebies again this year.

Last year, 2K Games attracted customers to order the game in advance after announcing Ultimate Warrior as an incentive for gamers, who will order the game earlier than expected.

According to Examiner, 2K Games might use the same strategy again this year, but sources also indicated that they might be forced to offer a current active superstar as reward, considering the fact that several retired wrestlers, like Mick Foley, will not appear in the game due to low compensations.

"2K Games may be using a similar tactic when it comes to promoting "WWE 2K15." The company has a large pool of divas and wrestlers to choose from," Examiner noted. "However, some of the retired wrestlers such as King Kong Bundy and Mick Foley are apparently upset with the low-paying compensation. As a result, the pre-order bonus may be related to someone on the current active roster."

Meanwhile, previous reports indicated that WWE 2K15 might have a larger pool of playable characters, and those reports might be accurate based on recent ads promoting the video game.

According to Wrestle Zone, NXT talents might appear in the game after a big number of WWE 2K15 ads appeared on the recent episode of the show.

"With regards to WWE 2K15, there has been a rumor that NXT may be featured heavily in the game this October, with a new career mode allowing users to start off in NXT and advance up to WWE's main roster," Wrestle Zone noted. "Last night there was a very heavy dose of 2K15 advertising around the Full Sail facility and some adverts had "WWE 2K15" written in the NXT colors."

WWE 2K15 will be released for next-gen consoles PS4 and Xbox One, and also for PS3 and Xbox 360. There are rumors that a PC version will also come out, but 2K Sports have yet to talk about it.
