One feature that is a part of AEW Fight Forever but absent from WWE 2K video games is thumbtacks but WWE 2K developer Bryan Williams is hoping that can be changed in the future.

"The thumbtacks, we've been talking about that for a while now, and I think once we crack that nut, that's the perfect opportunity to then go into, as you, as you pointed out, getting scarring, bleeding on the back, the chest, the arms, even. I think introducing that as a new weapon. Obviously, just like peanut butter and jelly, it coincides with bleeding on the bodies, as opposed to just the face. So, it is something that we are hoping to eventually get to sooner rather than later. So, yeah, I would just say, we hear you, and it's something that we want to do as well, especially just having thumbtacks in the AEW game. I know I worked on it, but it, you know, it sticks in my craw that the AEW game has one over on us when it comes to the thumbtacks. I don't like that. We're going to make it right," Williams told The Pro Wrestling Shoot.

WWE 2K25 is set to be released on Friday, March 14 on PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X/S, Xbox One, and PC via Steam. Full details have been released for 2K Showcase: The Bloodline's Dynasty, the WWE 2K Showcase mode centred around the Anoa'i family.
