2K today unveiled the WWE 2K14 cover art featuring WWE Superstar Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson.

The official reveal, which took place during last night’s episode of Monday Night Raw, showcased cover artwork. The cover art reflects The Rock’s physicality and signature in-ring pose.

Xonsidered one of the greatest WWE Superstars of all time, The Rock – a third-generation competitor who followed in the footsteps of his father and grandfather – rose to mainstream fame in both tag team and singles action during the late 1990s as part of the company’s Attitude Era. His impressive resume currently boasts eight reigns as WWE Champion, in addition to several reigns as WCW Champion, Intercontinental Champion and WWE Tag Team Champion.

2K also recently announced an original cover artwork contest, where one lucky consumer will have his or her artwork appear as an alternate cover distributed inside WWE 2K14 retail copies. To submit contest entries, consumers will use Twitter to promote their images, with the hashtag #WWE2K14Cover included in their tweets.

Developed by Yukes for the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3, WWE 2K14 is currently scheduled for release on October 29, 2013 in North America and November 1, 2013 internationally.
