'WWE 2K17' roster news: Third batch of superstars, The New Day entrance video revealed

(Official WWE 2K site)A total of 84 wrestling superstars are now confirmed to be part of the roster.

Another batch of WWE Superstars has been revealed. On Tuesday, the "WWE 2K17" roster unveiled a new set of names and it included Randy Savage, AJ Styles, Shawn Michaels and 33 more wrestling stars.

As is the case of previous roster reveals, a teaser photo featuring a certain area in the game's Suplex City was released. Last week, the photo was at a Suplex City park. This week, players are shown an image of a shopping district in the area. This photo contains hints on the identities of the characters that are part of week 3's roster, and given that there are more than 30 of them, the image is packed with clues, IGN reported.

Last week, the Demon King Finn Balor was featured in his entrance video. This time, 2K Games introduced the longest-reigning Tag Team champions of WWE, The New Day. Forbes reported that having The New Day in the game is predictable. The video (shown below) also includes an accurate depiction of how the members made their signature entrance.
