WWE 2K26 has expanded its playable roster options with the release of the new Persona Card Pack DLC, a $14.99 add-on centered on alternate versions of established WWE names from different points in their careers.

The pack includes three new Persona cards: Randy Orton ’09, Jade Cargill SNME ’25, and Trish Stratus ’00. Persona cards are designed to give players access to distinct versions of Superstars across the game’s modes, rather than functioning only as collectible MyFACTION items. That means the additions are intended to provide new ways to use Orton, Cargill and Stratus beyond card-collecting play.

Along with the three Persona cards, the DLC comes with five MyFACTION card packs spanning several of the mode’s available series. The release arrives alongside Patch 1.19, which adds several entrance-related updates and unique in-game voice material for Danhausen.

WWE 2K26 is currently available on PlayStation 5, Nintendo Switch 2, Xbox Series X|S and Microsoft Windows PC.

Three Persona versions headline the new WWE 2K26 DLC

The most prominent addition in the Persona Card Pack is Randy Orton ’09. The version is built around Orton’s early Apex Predator period, giving players a chance to use an alternate presentation of The Viper from that defining stage of his WWE run.

Persona content has become a notable part of the WWE 2K experience because it does more than simply change an attire. These versions are presented as separate playable character variations, allowing the game to represent a Superstar at a particular point in time. For fans who prefer era-specific rosters, that distinction can be especially meaningful when building exhibitions, custom Universe stories, factions or matches involving different generations.

Jade Cargill SNME ’25 is the second Persona card included in the pack. This version is tied to Cargill’s Saturday Night’s Main Event attire from 2025. The addition gives Cargill another distinct look within the game and reflects WWE 2K26’s continued use of event-based and career-specific character representations.

The third Persona card is Trish Stratus ’00, which takes players back to the Hall of Famer’s breakout year. Stratus has remained one of the most recognizable figures in WWE women’s wrestling history, and the 2000 version offers a much earlier portrayal than the later-career versions that are often associated with her Hall of Fame legacy.

Together, the selections cover different eras of WWE history and different forms of character presentation. Orton’s inclusion focuses on a well-established persona from the late 2000s, Cargill’s card emphasizes a modern event-specific appearance, and Stratus brings a turn-of-the-century version of a major WWE star into the mix.

MyFACTION players receive five additional packs

In addition to the Persona characters, purchasers receive five MyFACTION packs. The included packs are:

  • 1x Deluxe Certified Heat Series 2
  • 1x Deluxe Extreme Series 2
  • 1x Deluxe Alphabet All Stars
  • 1x Basic SummerSlam Vol. 1
  • 1x Basic Iconic Ink Series 2

The split between Deluxe and Basic packs gives the DLC an additional MyFACTION component beyond the playable Persona content. MyFACTION has served as WWE 2K26’s card-collection mode, with players assembling lineups and pursuing cards across multiple themed series. The new bundle draws from several different collections rather than concentrating all five packs in a single release line.

Certified Heat Series 2, Extreme Series 2, Alphabet All Stars, SummerSlam Vol. 1 and Iconic Ink Series 2 each carry their own branding within the MyFACTION ecosystem. The Persona Card Pack therefore offers a mixture of roster expansion and card-opening opportunities, with the three character versions providing the central gameplay additions and the packs adding further value for players who spend significant time in MyFACTION.

For players who do not focus on MyFACTION, the key consideration remains the three Persona versions and their availability across WWE 2K26’s game modes. For those who do regularly collect cards, the five packs make the release more than a straightforward alternate-attire bundle.

Patch 1.19 adds Danhausen voice work and throwback entrances

The DLC release has also been accompanied by Patch 1.19. Among the newly added content is Danhausen’s unique voice work, including his efforts and lines during gameplay. The update gives the character a more individualized audio presentation in the ring.

Patch 1.19 also includes new entrances connected to Matt Hardy and the Hardy Boyz’ turn-of-the-century presentation. Players now have access to a Matt Hardy circa 2000 entrance, a 2000 entrance for The Hardys and Lita as a trio, and a 2000 entrance for The Hardys as a tag team.

Those additions are particularly useful for players who want to recreate that era in exhibition matches or custom booking modes. Entrance updates can be a substantial part of a wrestling game’s presentation, especially when they help match a character version’s time period, partners or stable alignment. The separate trio and tag-team options also give players different presentation choices depending on whether Lita is part of the act.

The inclusion of Danhausen material and multiple Hardy-related entrances shows that Patch 1.19 is not limited to technical adjustments. It also expands the game’s presentation options, with a mix of current character-specific audio and legacy-focused entrance content.

What the Persona Card Pack means for WWE 2K26 players

At $14.99, the Persona Card Pack is positioned as a focused content release rather than a broad roster expansion. Its appeal will depend heavily on how players value the included eras and MyFACTION items.

Randy Orton ’09 may be the most immediately recognizable nostalgia addition for players interested in a late-2000s WWE lineup. Trish Stratus ’00 serves a similar role for those looking to add an earlier version of a Hall of Fame performer, while Jade Cargill SNME ’25 provides a more contemporary alternate representation. The variety means the DLC is not built around one single show, decade or faction.

The availability of Persona versions across all game modes is an important element of the release. Wrestling games have long had demand for alternate looks, retro identities and time-specific Superstar portrayals, but their usefulness can vary when they are restricted to a single mode. Making these versions broadly playable gives users more freedom to incorporate them into the way they already play WWE 2K26.

That flexibility applies whether a player is setting up a one-off dream match, constructing a themed card, developing a custom story or putting together an era-based roster. A 2009 Orton can occupy a different place in a user-created WWE landscape than a present-day version would, while a 2000 Stratus and the newly updated Hardy entrances offer additional options for recreating earlier periods.

The bundle’s MyFACTION component is also notable because it combines content from several series in one purchase. Rather than being tied solely to the three Persona cards, the add-on offers card packs from Certified Heat, Extreme, Alphabet All Stars, SummerSlam and Iconic Ink collections. That approach makes the pack relevant to both collectors and players primarily interested in playable roster additions.

WWE 2K26 continues adding playable and presentation options

The Persona Card Pack and Patch 1.19 continue WWE 2K26’s post-launch additions with an emphasis on variety. The DLC reaches across multiple WWE eras through Orton, Cargill and Stratus, while the update enhances presentation with Danhausen’s voice and several Hardy-related entrances.

For players considering the new release, the full package consists of the three Persona cards, five MyFACTION packs and the accompanying patch additions now available in the game. The Persona Card Pack is priced at $14.99, while Patch 1.19 brings its content updates to WWE 2K26 as part of the game’s ongoing support.

With the new material in place, players can now bring Randy Orton ’09, Jade Cargill SNME ’25 and Trish Stratus ’00 into their WWE 2K26 experience, while also accessing added MyFACTION packs and expanded entrance options for Danhausen, Matt Hardy, The Hardys and Lita.
