WWE 2K26 will expand its roster throughout the year with several familiar names confirmed for the game’s Ringside Pass downloadable content.
2K announced that Matt Hardy and Jeff Hardy will be included in Ringside Pass Season 4, bringing the legendary tag team to the game as part of the ongoing DLC schedule. Their addition allows players to use one of the most recognizable teams in wrestling history.
Another returning name will be Kelly Kelly, who is scheduled to arrive during Ringside Pass Season 2. The former WWE Divas Champion will join the roster ahead of WrestleMania 42 as part of the game’s second wave of downloadable content.
Classic tag team The Natural Disasters, featuring Typhoon and Earthquake, will also be included in the lineup. The duo is set to appear in Ringside Pass Season 3.
The Ringside Pass system introduces a tier-based progression feature for WWE 2K26. Players earn Ringside Experience Points by competing in matches across various game modes while connected online. Winning matches and completing challenges can increase the amount of progress earned.
Each season of the pass offers rewards across multiple tiers. The free track offers 60 rewards across 40 levels, including in-game currency, MyFACTION packs, and customization options.
Players who purchase the Ringside Premium Pass unlock additional rewards, bringing the total number of available items to 120. Premium content includes new DLC superstars, character creation parts, taunts, personas, and other extras.
Both free and premium rewards unlock simultaneously as players advance through the tiers, meaning progress in one track applies to the other.
The rollout begins with the launch of Ringside Pass Season 1 on March 6, with early access. Season 2 is scheduled for April ahead of WrestleMania 42, followed by Season 3 in June and Season 4 in July. Additional seasons are planned for September and October.
