Every New Match Type in WWE 2K25

Bloodline Rules: With the Bloodline dominating the wrestling scene throughout 2024, *WWE 2K25* puts them front and center. Roman Reigns graces the game's cover, and the Bloodline features prominently in the Dynasty mode. In Bloodline Rules matches, there are no disqualifications, making it an anything-goes brawl. Victory is achieved by pin or submission, but these matches are notorious for interference, use of props and weapons, and referees who might not stay conscious for long.

Intergender Matches: A long-awaited feature, Intergender Matches allow superstars from both the men’s and women’s divisions to compete against each other, adding a fresh and thrilling dimension to the game's dynamics.

Underground Matches: Blending the worlds of professional wrestling and MMA, Underground Matches remove the ropes from the ring and have other WWE superstars surrounding it to keep the action inside. Originally debuted on Raw, these matches have found a new home in NXT.
