Have you ever been watching Rayman and Hellboy fight Finn the Human from Adventure Time and then The Rock shows up to throw them against the ropes? Well if you are like most people and haven’t seen that sequence of events, you can starting tomorrow because Brawlhalla is crossing over with the WWE to bring four superstar wrestlers into the game.

Beck Lynch, The Rock, John Cena, and Xavier Woods will all be joining the brawl on Aug. 8 with unique animations to beatdown your opponent with.

Along with their signature poses and iconic moves, there is even more to this crossover if you watch how Xavier Woods plays closely. When using certain moves, both Big E and Kofi Kingston, the other two members of The New Day tag-team make appearances to help out with some attacks. Little touches like this are featured in all of Brawlhalla’s guest characters, so expect similar detail for the other WWE stars too.

There is also a new mode called Brawldown that features a stage themed around the upcoming WWE SummerSlam event, including a wrestling ring layout with new rope physics added for some extra fun. It also includes several melee items based on things used in wrestling, such as chairs and planks of wood that can be found in the ring.

Each WWE wrestler being added to Brawlhalla will cost 300 Mammoth Coins in the game’s marketplace, bringing the total for all four to around 1,200 coins if there isn’t a bundle available.

Because it seems Brawlhalla has found success in the crossovers with various franchises, it isn’t unlikely that another strange yet awesome set of characters could be coming to the game in the future.
