WWE 2K22 has been a success so far, with the game earning enough praise to convince WWE to continue working with 2K Sports on future entries in the long-running franchise. Now Visual Concepts and 2K Sports are expanding the WWE 2K22 experience with the game's first major DLC drop. Starting today, season pass owners can download the WWE 2K22 Banzai Pack DLC, with it also available as a separate, standalone purchase.
The WWE 2K22 Banzai Pack DLC is themed after legendary wrestler Yokozuna, who held the WWE Championship on two occasions and was featured in the main event of multiple WrestleManias. Yokozuna is joined in the Banzai Pack by his cousins Umaga and Rikishi, both legendary wrestlers in their own right who made an impact in WWE. Umaga feuded with John Cena and had a high profile match at WrestleMania 23 against Bobby Lashley, with Mr. McMahon in Umaga's corner and Donald Trump in Lashley's. Rikishi, meanwhile, held multiple championships in WWE and was part of the popular stable Too Cool.
Yokozuna, Umaga, and Rikishi aren't the only new wrestlers added to WWE 2K22 through the Banzai Pack DLC. They are joined by relative rookies Omos and Kacy Catanzaro. All five wrestlers are available to download now through the WWE 2K22 Banzai Pack DLC starting today.

The WWE 2K22 Banzai Pack is just the first DLC planned for the game, with more expansions scheduled to release in the months ahead. The next expansion for the game will drop on May 17 in the form of the Most Wanted Pack, which features Catcus Jack, The Boogeyman, Vader, Ilja Dragonuv, and Indi Hartwell. Then on June 7, WWE 2K22 players can look forward to the Stand Back Pack, which features Hurricane Helms, Stacy Keibler, and A-Kid. Wes Lee and Nash Carter were announced to be a part of that DLC as well, but since WWE fired Nash Carter, it's possible that plans have changed.
On June 28, WWE 2K22 will release the Clowning Around Pack with Doink the Clown, Ronda Rousey, The British Bulldog, Mr. T, Doudrop, and Rick Boogs. And finally, the Whole Dam Pack will launch on July 19 to cap off WWE 2K22's DLC offerings, with that pack including the likes of Rob Van Dam, Logan Paul, Machine Gun Kelly, LA Knight, Xia Li, Commander Azeez, and Sarray.
WWE 2K22 is out now for PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X.
