It is the sequel to ''[[WWE 2K14]]'', and was succeeded by ''[[WWE 2K16]]''. It was released on October 28, 2014, in North America and on October 31, 2014, in Europe for [[History of video game consoles (seventh generation)\|last generation consoles]] and released on November 18, 2014, in North America and on November 21, 2014, in Europe for [[History of video game consoles (eighth generation)\|current generation consoles]]. It was released for [[Microsoft Windows]] on April 28, 2015, and was the first WWE game to be released on the platform since ''[[WWE Raw (video game)\|WWE Raw]]'', which was released in 2002.<ref name="PC" /><ref name="PCrls" /> Online server play was shut down on May 31, 2016.<ref>{{Cite web \|last=SimoneSDH \|date=2016-05-02 \|title=WWE 2K15 Servers To Be Discontinued On May 31, 2016 {{!}} WWE 2K15 News \|url=https://www.thesmackdownhotel.com/news/wwe2k15/wwe-2k15-servers-to-be-discontinued-on-may-31-2016 \|access-date=2024-04-30 \|website=The SmackDown Hotel \|language=en-gb}}</ref> It is the first game in the series to use the new [[WWE]] logo since it was introduced earlier in 2014, which was originally used as the logo of the [[WWE Network]]. The game is based on the [[professional wrestling promotion]] WWE and ''WWE 2K15'' serves as the first game in the series to signify the "new generation", placing a heavy emphasis on traditional and more relaxed gameplay, unlike the arcade-like combat prominent in previous installments. It also adds several new features to complement the main theme based around naturalism, adding a new chain grapple system at the beginning of matches, slowing the pacing of the matches and adding a new stamina bar to reflect and portray the quality of matches produced on WWE television. Line 37: The first rivalry "Hustle, Loyalty, Disrespect" is between [[John Cena]] and [[CM Punk]] from 2011 to 2013. The rivalry started with Punk beginning to rebel against the chairman of the WWE, [[Vince McMahon\|Mr. McMahon]], and the way he ran the company and later when he claimed he did not earn the respect he deserved, leading into a matchup at [[Money in the Bank (2011)\|Money in the Bank 2011]] against Cena for the [[WWE Championship]], as his WWE contract set to expire after the event. The rivalry ends with Punk's defeat by Cena at [[Raw (WWE brand)\|Raw]]. The second rivalry "Best Friends, Bitter Enemies" chronicles the feud between [[~~Triple H\|"The Game"~~ Triple H]], [[~~Shawn Michaels\|"The Heartbreak Kid"~~ Shawn Michaels]] and the wrestling stable [[Evolution (professional wrestling)\|Evolution]]. The showcase begins at [[SummerSlam (2002)\|SummerSlam 2002]] between Triple H and Michaels and covers various matches from Raw and PPV's ending with Triple H defeating Michaels at [[Bad Blood 2004]] in a [[Hell in a Cell match]]. The 2K Showcase also allows players to unlock various arenas, wrestlers and attires from each rivalry period, including Triple H's 2003 and 2004 attire and the stable Evolution from 2004. Line 44: ''WWE 2K15'' has three additional Showcases, which were available as [[Downloadable content\|DLCs]]. "One More Match" features the rivalry between [[Christian Cage\|Christian]] and [[~~Randy Orton\|"The Apex Predator"~~ Randy Orton]] during 2011, focusing in on Christian's quest for the [[World Heavyweight Championship (WWE, 2002–2013)\|World Heavyweight Championship]], from Christian's [[ladder match]] against [[Alberto del Rio]] at [[Extreme Rules (2011)\|Extreme Rules 2011]] to their matchup at [[SummerSlam (2011)\|SummerSlam 2011]]. "Hall of Pain" features [[~~Mark Henry\|"The World's Strongest Man"~~ Mark Henry]]'s domination through 2011 and early 2012 and his path towards winning the World Heavyweight Championship and his brief resurgence challenging for the [[WWE Championship]] in early 2013, from his [[Money in the Bank 2011]] matchup against [[Big Show\|The Big Show]] to his [[Wrestlemania XXIX]] matchup against [[Ryback]]. "Path of Warrior" focuses on the career of [[The Ultimate Warrior]], chronicling in on the rise of The Ultimate Warrior during the 1980s, commenting on the passing of the torch that [[Hulk Hogan]] demonstrated at [[WrestleMania VI]] and detailing Warrior's legacy within the [[WWE]], from his [[SummerSlam (1988)\|SummerSlam 1988]] matchup against [[The Honky Tonk Man\|Honky Tonk Man]], with [[Jimmy Hart]] by his side, to his [[Wrestlemania XII]] matchup with Hunter Hearst Helmsley. Line 56: ==== Who Got NXT? ==== Replacing MyCareer on PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 is a mode called "Who Got NXT?" which is a story mode focusing on up-and-comers from NXT: [[Adrian Neville]], [[Bo Dallas]], [[Corey Graves]], [[Rusev (wrestler)\|Rusev]], and [[Sami Zayn]], the 5 playable NXT Superstars in the game.<ref>{{cite web\|url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gm8aETUsPNc&a\|title=Who Got NXT? mode debuts in WWE 2K15\|publisher=WWE\|date=October 21, 2014\|access-date=October 21, 2014\|archive-date=March 8, 2021\|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210308194226/https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gm8aETUsPNc&a\|url-status=live}}</ref> The [[NXT Arrival\|NXT ArRival]] arena was also exclusive to the PS3/360 version of the game. ==== Proving Ground ==== Line 67: == Visuals and audio == The PlayStation 4, Xbox One and Microsoft Windows versions of the game feature the same face and body scanning tech that was used for ''[[NBA 2K14]]'' to ensure that the models look as close to their real-life counterparts as possible.<ref name="Tech">{{cite web\|url=http://www.gamespot.com/articles/e3-2014-wwe-2k15-showcases-the-power-of-nba-2k-tech/1100-6420396/\|title=E3 2014: WWE 2K15 Showcases the Power of NBA 2K Tech\|work=GameSpot\|access-date=October 7, 2015\|archive-date=November 9, 2015\|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20151109222707/http://www.gamespot.com/articles/e3-2014-wwe-2k15-showcases-the-power-of-nba-2k-tech/1100-6420396/\|url-status=live}}</ref> Textures for clothing, beards & long hair have been updated, with 2K creating an entirely new development tool to more realistically portray beards.<ref>{{cite web\|url=http://www.designntrend.com/articles/18660/20140829/wwe-2k15-producer-explains-new-beard-tech-adjusting-current-gen.htm\|title='WWE 2K15' Producer Explains New 'Beard Tech' And Adjusting To Current-Gen Consoles\|work=Design & Trend\|access-date=October 7, 2015\|archive-date=October 9, 2014\|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20141009011955/http://www.designntrend.com/articles/18660/20140829/wwe-2k15-producer-explains-new-beard-tech-adjusting-current-gen.htm\|url-status=live}}</ref> However, the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 versions have similar graphics to its predecessor, but with improved clothing textures and a new lighting system that lessens the shine from the superstar models.<ref>{{cite web\|url=http://attackofthefanboy.com/news/2k-gives-insight-wwe-2k15s-graphics-ps3-xbox-360/\|title=2K Gives Insight On WWE 2K15's Graphics For PS3 And Xbox 360 – Attack of the Fanboy\|author=Damian Seeto\|work=Attack of the Fanboy\|date=July 11, 2014\|access-date=October 7, 2015\|archive-date=November 18, 2015\|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20151118011759/http://attackofthefanboy.com/news/2k-gives-insight-wwe-2k15s-graphics-ps3-xbox-360/\|url-status=live}}</ref> The PlayStation 4 and Xbox One versions are displayed in [[1080p]] resolution and have an improved [[frame rate]].<ref>{{cite web\|url=http://www.cinemablend.com/games/WWE-2K15-Confirmed-1080p-PS4-Xbox-One-68041.html\|title=WWE 2K15 Confirmed 1080p On PS4 And Xbox One\|work=cinemablend.com\|date=October 25, 2014\|access-date=October 7, 2015\|archive-date=September 10, 2015\|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150910124537/http://www.cinemablend.com/games/WWE-2K15-Confirmed-1080p-PS4-Xbox-One-68041.html\|url-status=live}}</ref> Visual Concepts motion captured wrestlers performing their moves in an actual WWE ring over the course of forty days with the sound of each bump being recorded to ensure that it sounds like the actual move rather than using generic sounds of someone hitting the mat.<ref name="stc" /><ref>{{cite web\|url=http://www.polygon.com/2014/9/3/6100801/see-the-wrestlers-of-wwe-2k15-grappling-with-motion-capture\|title=See the wrestlers of WWE 2K15 grappling with motion capture\|author=Colin Campbell\|work=Polygon\|date=September 3, 2014\|access-date=October 7, 2015\|archive-date=March 4, 2016\|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160304114554/http://www.polygon.com/2014/9/3/6100801/see-the-wrestlers-of-wwe-2k15-grappling-with-motion-capture\|url-status=live}}</ref> The game has five times the amount of animation data than the previous game.<ref name="stc" /> [[Michael Cole (wrestling)\|Michael Cole]] and [[Jerry ~~Lawler\|Jerry "The King"~~ Lawler]] recorded new commentary, with approximately 30 hours of new commentary per commentator.
