WWE 2K26 The Island – Everything You Need to Know
The Island returns to WWE 2K26 with tons of new features. With Roman Reigns' departure from The Island, the balance of power has been split amongst three Orders, or Factions.
All the Orders and their leaders in WWE 2K26 The Island include:
- Order of Tradition – Cody Rhodes
- Order of Shadows – Rhea Ripley
- Order of Anarchy – CM Punk
Each Order can play through the main path of the story. However, each allegiance has their own unique location, viewpoints, and ideologies. Within each Order's location is a designated PvP arena for you to explore.
Speaking of locations, The Island is getting a brand new spot called The Scrapyard. Located at the center of the Island where Roman Reigns once… reigned, the Scrapyard has become an abandoned space that all Three Orders are fighting for control of.
