Earlier today, WWE 2K14 announced a new game mode for the upcoming release, which is drawing ever nearer, scheduled for Tues., Oct. 29, 2013. It's called "The Streak" and focuses on Undertaker's historic run at WrestleMania.
With "Defend The Streak," players will take the reins as The Undertaker himself and battle wave after wave of opponents at The Show of Shows. Also available in Exhibition Mode as "The Slobberknocker," this gauntlet match-like mode challenges players to see how many opponents they can take out, one after another.
In "Defeat The Streak," players will be faced with the daunting task of challenging The Undertaker in his domain upon The Grandest Stage of Them All, a stage The Deadman has dominated for more than two decades. According to Ledesma, pinning The Deadman will be no easy task, as 2K's developers have cranked it up to an off-the-charts fifth difficulty level that will incorporate supernatural elements to mirror The Undertaker's near-mythic WrestleMania aura.
For the more hardcore gamers, this sounds positively delicious. Defending the streak against waves of opponents is an awesome challenge but a cranked up difficulty to defeat it sounds even better.
This is in addition to the "30 Years of WrestleMania" mode that was previously announced. Click here for all the details on that. Click here for the full roster for the game.
