Eight WWE superstars included in Clash of Clans as huge WrestleMania 41 announcement made

Clash of Clans have added eight WWE superstars to their game ahead of WrestleMania 41, with a huge announcement made.

WWE are pumping out a series of huge announcements ahead of WrestleMania 41 - including the confirmation that seven leading stars are now playable characters in Clash of Clans.

WWE 2K25, the go-to wrestling game, was released worldwide last month and sees former champion Roman Reigns grace the cover.

But a new partnership sees WWE team up with Clash of Clans, the mobile game with more than two billion downloads, to bring a number of wrestling legends into a completely different world.

WWE champion Cody Rhodes is the face of the company and such a good spokesperson that he has led to both The Rock and John Cena turning to the dark side prior to consecutive WrestleMania events.

But Rhodes, in the top 10 percent of Clash of Clans players worldwide, has been reimagined in the game - where he goes by 'Barbarian King' - a moustache-wearing villain who look similar but has very different intentions.

The American Nightmare is the star of the launch trailer which dropped earlier this week ahead of the new additions going live on Tuesday and stressed that he would be taking the same approach in the game as he is with upcoming opponent Cena in their mammoth WrestleMania main event.

Having promised that opposition will be "crushed under my command", Rhodes said: "Just like at WrestleMania 41, I’m stepping in with one goal – absolute victory. I’ve waited a long time for this moment, and now that I've arrived, there’s no stopping me.”

Who else has been added to Clash of Clans?

Rhodes is not alone though, as he has also been joined in the game by The Undertaker (Grand Warden), Kane (P.E.K.K.A), Rey Mysterio (Minion Prince) Rhea Ripley (Archer Queen), Becky Lynch (Valkyrie), Bianca Belair (Royal Champion) and 2025 Men's Royal Rumble winner Jey Uso (Thrower).

WrestleMania 41 at the Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas takes place live on Netflix over two nights on April 19 and April 20 and Clash of Clans will sponsor one of the matches in a huge move.

WrestleMania 41 matches so far

Last week it was confirmed that CM Punk would finally get a main event in his triple threat against bitter rivals Roman Reigns and Seth Rollins and that looks set to close out night one, with Rhodes defending the title against Cena in night two's main event in his final WrestleMania bout.

Other matches pencilled in include Gunther vs Jey Uso for the WWE world heavyweight championship, Randy Orton vs Kevin Owens, Tiffany Stratton vs Charlotte Flair for the WWE women's championship and AJ Styles vs Logan Paul, with plenty of announcements set to come in the near future.
