On July 25, 2018, the game's Collector's Edition was announced for PS4 and Xbox One only, and is focused on WWE Hall of Famer Ric Flair. A trailer for her was also released which featured the voice of Roddy Piper, leading many to suspect that he would be included in the game. On July 9, for the first time ever, a second pre-order bonus was announced - Ronda Rousey, making her first appearance in the franchise since her debut match at WrestleMania 34. On June 25, 2018, Rey Mysterio was announced as the game's pre-order bonus, making his return to the series after his last appearance being in WWE 2K15. Deluxe Edition details were also announced, including the game's release date Octofor the Deluxe Edition, and October 9 for the Standard Edition. Those four will compete in a tournament and the winner faces the real life AJ Styles for the prize of a million dollars, something not seen in the series before. A new mode must be beaten and a promotional video must be uploaded in order to be one of the four semi-finalists.
Three days later, on June 18, a live press conference was held which revealed that AJ Styles will be the game's cover star, and that a brand new mode called the " Million Dollar Challenge" will be included. The game was officially announced by 2K on June 15, 2018. The game was leaked on Walmart's website in early June, but the cover of the game was not there at the time. Motion capture work for the game began in May. In April, Baron Corbin revealed that he was doing voice-over work for an upcoming video game, presumably WWE 2K19. In March 2018, Jonathan Coachman confirmed that he would not be included in the game as a commentator, as his return was just after the game's commentary lines had been recorded.
