WWE 2K26 Season 3 new wrestlers, moves and patch notes
WWE 2K26 fans can download and install a big new update, as Ringside Pass Season 3 makes its debut on PS5, Xbox Series X|S and PC. The new update ushers in the season 3 content, which includes new wrestlers, new moves, new cutscenes and new outfits.
Of course, what you get out of Season 3 of the Ringside Pass very much depends on whether you purchase the Premium Track, which comes with all of the best content. This includes the addition of iconic wrestlers such as the Loose Cannon Brian Pillman and AAA luchador La Parka.
Tier one of the Premium Track also includes current WWE Superstar Matt Cardona, as well as WCW and WWE Diva Torrie Wilson.
Other Premium rewards include Kane '01 and Rey Mysterio '01 Persona Cards, as well as various items of clothing such as the WCW/nWo Revenge T-Shirt, the WCW vs nWo World Tour T-Shirt, the Chalkline nWo Wolfpac 4-Life Hockey Jersey, and La Parka's LWO Mask with shades.
New moves include the Springboard 720 DDT, the Wheelbarrow Dragon Sleeper and the impressive Diving Swanton 450 splash.
Needless to say, there are also a selection of free rewards, including Tyrese Haliburton, Brock Lesnar '03, Mutiny Asuka and Solo Sikoa '22.
Season 3 also introduces the second chapter of The Island game mode, which sees players form alliances to battle the Order of Malice faction led by Drew McIntyre, Seth Rollins and Becky Lynch.
