Earlier this month, IGN reported that as the WWE continues to distance itself from Brock Lesnar, the wrestler had been removed from the cover art of the special edition of WWE 2K24. Lesnar was cut from the promo art of the Forty Years of WrestleMania edition of the game, with a larger version of John Cena where Lesnar used to be.

It's unclear if Lesnar will be removed from the game altogether when it releases on March 8. A source with knowledge of the situation told IGN that steps are being taken to update the game in accordance with recent developments surrounding Lesnar and his reported connection to a lawsuit against Vince McMahon and the WWE.
