Brock Lesnar has seemingly been removed from the cover of the upcoming WWE 2K24 video game as of today, February 6, 2024.

The official gameplay trailer for the game was released today, which at the end showed all three covers for the game – the regular edition, premium edition, and 40 Years of WrestleMania edition.
As you can see in the comparison images below, Brock Lesnar was not present on the cover for the 40 Years of WrestleMania version as he had been previously: 

WWE has actually taken the WWE 2K24 gameplay trailer video down from its YouTube page and made it private.
On January 25, a lawsuit was filed hitting Vince McMahon with allegations of sexual trafficking, abuse and more – you can read the full lawsuit below.
Throughout the lawsuit, there were also several unnamed parties, including one who was referred to as “WWE Superstar” who was involved in the alleged situation.

WWE Superstar was described as someone who was a former UFC Heavyweight Champion and was negotiating with WWE at the time that alleged events occurred.
While it’s very important to express that Brock Lesnar was at no point named in the lawsuit, the Wall Street Journal reported that the person being referred to as WWE Superstar was Lesnar.

This reportedly led to WWE pulling Lesnar from creative plans, including the Royal Rumble match on January 27, and WrestleMania at the start of April.
There have been reports since the lawsuit that attempts have been made to remove both Lesnar and McMahon from WWE 2K24.
As of this writing on Feburary 6, Lesnar is still listed as a current ‘Superstar’ on WWE.com’s official roster page – Vince McMahon’s profile on the same page was removed from public viewing on January 26.
