WWE 2K15 was built on a brand-new engine designed to take advantage of the increased horsepower of the then-new consoles. While the game was praised for its stunningly realistic character models and improved lighting, it faced criticism for a "stripped-back" feel, as many legacy features and match types were removed to accommodate the new technology.

For the legitimate community, "reloading" the game with DLC was the only way to achieve a complete experience. Because the base game lacked many "Attitude Era" legends and contemporary NXT stars, the DLC packs weren't just optional extras—they were essential components for fans who wanted a roster that felt truly representative of wrestling history.

It turned a "barebones" game into a sandbox where the Community Creations limit was theoretically non-existent.

It also added playable arenas from 2011, such as SmackDown, Extreme Rules, Over the Limit, and Capitol Punishment.

The RELOADED version includes all the content that was originally released as individual paid add-ons for consoles.
