Bad Bunny is officially making his big crossover into video games: The hugely popular Latin music artist is featured in a new edition of 2K’s best-selling WWE 2K23 wrestling title.

Take-Two Interactive’s 2K division announced the WWE 2K23 Bad Bunny Edition, available as of Friday. Bad Bunny is a well-known WWE fan, having participated in the San Juan Street Fight at WWE’s Backlash 2023 premium live event — where defeated Damian Priest. The playable Bad Bunny character in WWE 2K23 wears the Adidas Men’s Tech Fall 2.0 Wrestling Shoe and clothing he wore at Backlash 2023.

The news comes after Bad Bunny just announced dates for his Most Wanted Tour across North America.
