WWE 2K26 will receive the third season of the Ringside Pass tomorrow, June 3, continuing the new post-launch content system adopted by 2K this year.
The information was confirmed by Cornell Gunter, a designer involved with the Ringside Pass, although 2K itself has yet to make a more direct announcement about the date through its main channels.
Season 3 will feature four new playable names for players who purchase the Ringside Pass Premium: Matt Cardona, Torrie Wilson, Brian Pillman, and La Parka. The individual pack is listed at $9.99.
The most notable case is Cardona, who returns to WWE games after several years away from the company. La Parka also strengthens AAA’s presence in the game, something that had already been explored in the first season with names such as El Hijo del Vikingo, Flammer, Mr. Iguana, and Psycho Clown.
Cornell confirmed that Ringside Pass Season 3 is coming TOMORROW, June 3! 🗓️

Even though I’m still not sure why 2K hasn’t announced the date yet. Communication could be clearer.#WWE2K26 https://t.co/rf1UCiefYJ pic.twitter.com/qMZIFmQGew
It is important to note that, starting with Season 2, the four main characters from each season became available at the first tier for Premium Pass players, without the need to progress through the entire rewards track.
The Ringside Pass replaced WWE 2K26’s old model of traditional DLC packs. In total, the game will have six seasons, with free and paid rewards including characters, creation items, MyFACTION content, and bonuses for The Island.
It remains to be seen why 2K has yet to give Season 3 a wider promotional push, as its launch is now less than 24 hours away.
