Bloodline Rules: Following a standout year in 2024, the Bloodline takes center stage in WWE 2K25, with Roman Reigns gracing the cover and the faction heavily featured in the Dynasty mode. Bloodline Rules matches are no-holds-barred, no-disqualification affairs, where victory can only be achieved by pinfall or submission. These matches often see interference from other WWE superstars, the use of various props and weapons, and referees who are out of commission.

Intergender Matches: As the name suggests, Intergender Matches bring together superstars from both the men's and women's divisions. After years of fan demand, these matches add an exciting new dimension to the game.

Underground Matches: Blending wrestling with combat sports like MMA, Underground Matches remove the ring ropes and have other WWE superstars surrounding the ring to keep the action inside. Originally debuted on Raw, these matches have found a home in NXT.
