Schwarzenegger will represent two playable T-800s - one from the original 1984 film, and another from 1991's Terminator 2: Judgement Day. Both will be available exclusively to those who pre-order WWE 2K16 from retailers such as Gamestop, Amazon, or any other major retailer accepting pre-orders.Here's what the superstar, former California governor, and future Celebrity Apprentice host had to tell us not only about WWE 2K16, but also some of his long-in-development movie sequels:Maybe the Austrian Oak, which is what people called me in bodybuilding. I think I would have been a good guy, not a heel. But I’ve loved playing both - I’m the only person on both the “Best Villains” and “Best Heroes” list as Terminator.Not mine, but a character I have fought: the Predator. Can you imagine the Predator jumping into the ring?Terminator versus anyone isn’t a fair battle, because it isn’t easy to fight a machine. But I like the idea of Terminator vs. Conan. A machine versus a barbarian might be as close to a fair fight as you can get. And it would be fun to see Conan swinging his sword at the Terminator and the metal on metal crashes.I love them all, The Rock, Stone Cold, but I really identify with Bruno Sammartino. He is a fellow immigrant, and he is truly a legend. He sold out Madison Square Garden 187 times! And he is so powerful. I remember the first time I saw him picking up someone over his head. Imagine the power. And he is the sweetest, most inspirational guy.I’ve stood next to Brock. He is a monster. I am not sure I would want to ever compete in a lifting tournament with someone that big.Dean did a great job as an actor in that scene, but let’s be clear – he doesn’t have a chance against the Terminator.I think the characters connect with people, and I’m so honored they want to see them again. People love the humor mixed in with the strength. It humanizes the action hero, which I think is so important.I’ve seen a script I really like, and every time I see fans, they demand a new Conan. The role means so much to me and I would love to do it again.Eddie is hilarious. We’ve met about it several times, and I think we all want to do it, but some things take time to get off the ground.I really enjoyed challenging myself with that role. I have always loved a challenge - stay hungry! I think it’s safe to say you’ll see more of that.WWE 2K16 comes out on PS3. PS4, Xbox 360, and Xbox One in North America on October 27, followed by its international release on October 30.
