Hyan Says Doing Mo-cap For WWE 2K23 Was “Super Cool”

Speaking recently with In The Weeds, Hyan shared her experience as one of the individuals responsible for the motion capture elements in WWE 2K23 (per Fightful). Although initially surprised by the opportunity, Hyan stated she enjoyed the gig and was able to demonstrate her versatility in portraying other wrestlers. You can find a highlight and watch the full interview below.

On how she got the shot to work on the video game: “It was super cool. It’s so random. Wrestling and all of these things, sometimes these opportunities come out of the blue and when they come, you have to go all in and take it. That was the same situation where, I actually got a text message, and I thought it was a scam. That’s my natural reaction [laughs], ‘this isn’t real,’ to everything I get. I did end up talking to people and they were like, ‘No, this is legit.’ You go to a studio, they hook you up, you have these nods all over you. There was a a lot of COVID testing. You come in, masked up, millions tests during the day. We did stuff for MyRISE, entrances, little cut scenes in the game. It’s fun because you get to be a character that is not you. They’re like, ‘Go be Roxanne Perez.’ ‘Got it. Easy.’ It’s a lot of fun, especially when you’re there with some really talented girls and you can just chill and talk and get to know each other and when it’s your turn, you go and kill it.”
