WWE 2K26 Season 3 Update: Take-Two Boss Strauss Zelnick Joins the Roster for Free
In brief
WWE 2K26 Season 3 has a major surprise in store with the free addition of Strauss Zelnick, CEO of Take-Two Interactive, directly in patch 1.12. Rated 77 Overall and classified as a Cruiserweight, the studio boss arrives with a complete moveset and his exclusive entrance to Frank Sinatra's "My Way", offering players the wacky opportunity to pit the publisher's boss against the roster's greatest legends.
Season 3 of WWE 2K26 features a surprising but nonetheless appetizing quirk: Strauss Zelnick, CEO of Take-Two Interactive, has been added for free in patch 1.12, with no purchase or Season Pass required.
Rated 77 Overall and classified as Cruiserweight, Zelnick has an open moveset with five moves to his name: a signature move like the Crowning Glory, the Visionary Forearm, finishers such as the Dudebuster or a brutal Package Piledriver. But his entrance is just as memorable, as he comes out to the iconic "My Way" theme by Frank Sinatra, though access to it is exclusively locked to his character and remains unavailable for CAWs.
This free DLC, or rather this hidden bonus of season 3, gives us a nod to the 2K sphere, and already fuels the workings of wacky scenario creations in Universe mode, with the publisher's CEO pitted against the roster's greatest legends.
