WWE 2K doesn’t need a current wrestler for its next cover, and that’s the bottom line.

Publisher 2K revealed today that Stone Cold Steve Austin is the cover star of WWE 2K16, the next entry in the yearly wrestling franchise. Austin was prominent in the late ’90s and early 2000s of WWE, a period known as the Attitude Era for its violence and edgy stories. WWE 2K16 comes out on Oct. 27 for PlayStation 4, Xbox One, PlayStation 3, and Xbox 360.
