WWE 2K26 Nuketown Mod Lets Fans Rumble on a Classic Call of Duty Stage
A new fan-made mod for WWE 2K26 is taking players to Nuketown, one of the most recognizable stages from the Call of Duty franchise—complete with a recreated map layout and a classic-style match setup. The mod, made by creator Prince, is designed to let players stage WWE showdowns on Nuketown interiors and exteriors, including a street-level spot where a standard WWE ring can be placed.
What’s out now: WWE 2K26 mod + ongoing official DLC and pass
| Item | Details |
|---|---|
| Fan mod: Nuketown arena | Adds a Call of Duty Nuketown recreation to WWE 2K26, featuring both an in-map ring setup and a standard WWE ring placed in the street. |
| Official DLC (WrestleMania 42-themed) | Revealed in early July; includes arenas tied to WrestleMania 42 Night 1 and Night 2, plus three new variants for major stars. |
| Official Ringside Pass | Season 4 launched recently, adding playable Hardy Boyz characters, plus Jelly Roll and AAA superstar Lady Shani. |
The Nuketown mod is shown in a video announcement where Prince’s custom character fights Roman Reigns on an upper level of a Nuketown house, then lifts and drops him onto a table below. Teasers for the arena indicate that a sizable portion of the recreated map is accessible, showing both the exterior of Nuketown and interiors for the houses. Another piece of footage from Prince’s Patreon also demonstrates the mod’s street-level flexibility, with a standard WWE ring positioned in the middle of the Nuketown roadway for more “classic” matches against the backdrop.
Prince has built a track record of WWE 2K26 arena and content mods. Prior releases include making older arenas—such as the 2002 Raw and Smackdown stages—climbable, and adding the Modern Warfare 2 map Rust to WWE 2K26. The mod lineup also includes weapon changes, including swapping standard thumbtacks for bracelet tacks associated with CM Punk’s Showcase mode.
To download Prince’s WWE 2K26 mods, fans need a subscription to his Patreon. The source specifies the $10 per month tier is required for arenas.
Meanwhile, WWE 2K26 continues to expand with official arenas and new playable personas
While modders add unexpected locations, Visual Concepts has also teased and rolled out official content. In early July, WWE 2K26 revealed upcoming WrestleMania 42-themed DLC featuring arenas based on both Night 1 and Night 2 of the 2026 event. The DLC is also planned to include three new variants for major WrestleMania 42 stars: Cody Rhodes, Alexa Bliss, and Liv Morgan. Liv Morgan’s variant will include new entrance music titled “Trouble,” which debuted at the event.
On the ongoing modes side, WWE 2K26 recently launched Ringside Pass Season 4. The update brings the Hardy Boyz back as playable characters, alongside musician Jelly Roll and AAA superstar Lady Shani. Season 4 also adds separate personas for additional WWE superstars, including a 2025 John Cena persona reflecting his retirement tour, and Lita’s 2000 Team Xtreme persona.
