The NBA 2K series has consistently been one of the best-selling games every single year and it’s not showing any signs of slowing down with the release of NBA 2K22. After a less than stellar last-gen release last year, 2K Sports and Visual Concepts bounced back with the next-gen exclusive version that came alongside the

As it does every year, the latest installment in the NBA 2K series is set to arrive in a little under a month. To start building up anticipation towards launch day 2K Games today unveiled the first gameplay of this year’s edition on current-gen platforms.

Take-Two Interactive made waves a few weeks back when it became the first publisher to announce a $10 price increase for games on next-gen consoles. Rather than the accustomed fare of $60 that has been commonplace for years, Take-Two revealed that NBA 2K21 on PS5 and Xbox Series X would retail for $70 instead. Now, it

NBA 2K21 was formerly announced at today’s PS5 event. Of course, they didn’t show much outside of presumed coverboy Zion Williamson sweating a whole lot. But listen, that sweat looks great. It looks like they threw virtual Zion into a sauna before he hit the court. Give the whole teaser a watch below. Literal buckets
Announced last week, PGA Tour 2K21 is the upcoming golf simulator from 2K Sports. After working closely with HB Studios on The Golf Club 2019 Featuring the PGA Tour, 2K Sports decided to throw their putter onto the virtual green for their own version. And now, the team has pulled back the curtain even more,
Ever since EA stopped its annual golf series following 2015’s Rory McIlroy PGA Tour, the video game world has been starved for AAA golfing experiences. While games like The Golf Club and Golf Story are fun, they lack that big name behind them. That began to change in 2018 when 2K Sports published The Golf
Whether it was intended to happen or not, Tiger King: Murder, Mayhem and Madness has become not only a huge hit for Netflix, but has also happened to take the internet by storm. While the documentary series, which covers the life and crimes of zoo operator and showman Joe Exotic, has been out for just under
In the past few week alone, the outbreak of the coronavirus across the world has fundamentally shifted most of our day-to-day lives, from cancelling and postponing major events like E3 and SXSW to restricting and banning travel. This especially has been felt in the sports industry with the suspension of the NBA’s season this year
It was a somber day in the basketball world (both real and digitally in NBA 2K20) as the sport lost one of its greatest stars. Kobe Bryant and his daughter Gianna Bryant, 13, were among several people who died in a helicopter crash Sunday morning in Calabasas, California. Bryant was 41. The news sent a
Every year, Japanese developer Yuke’s works with Visual Concepts and 2K Sports in order to create new WWE 2K games. While they are fun, it has become clear that things have stagnated recently with games like WWE 2K19. Yuke’s has apparently noticed this stagnation as well, according to Video Games Chronicle, and to combat it
NBA 2K Playgrounds 2, which released back in October of last year, has been getting some new content updates. The added features in the latest round of DLC include a new Mars Playground court, new outfits, and court editor items. However, the biggest takeaway from the update is cross-play support, as revealed by the official
There are two things you’ll notice upon starting NBA 2K Playgrounds 2, the new arcade basketball title from developer Saber Interactive and publisher 2K Sports. First, you’ll see a user agreement that, for some reason, feels like reading Tolstoy’s War and Peace. Second, immediately after agreeing to the game’s terms of service, you’ll notice the
Last year’s installment of NBA 2K18 was the most divided I had been on the series in years. Even though the basketball itself continued to improve–like it usually does–I felt gross at times while playing it. Microtransactions became even more prominent throughout the game than they already were to the point that it felt like 2K Sports
Earlier this year, Saber Interactive announced that NBA Playgrounds 2 had been delayed merely a week before it was scheduled to release. In the moment, the delay was highly odd but it made more sense eventually. A few months later, Saber Interactive re-emerged and announced that they had joined forces with 2K Sports to re-brand the franchise
2K, a publisher known within sports gaming circles for their NBA 2K and WWE 2K series, has been expanding its sports title lineup recently.

2K Sports released a new trailer today for the upcoming release of NBA 2K19 that announced longtime sports analyst Bill Simmons will be joining the broadcast crew this year.

At this point, we are less than a month away from NBA 2K19’s official release but developer Visual Concepts and 2K Sports doesn’t seem like they are stopping with news about the title anytime soon. Today, they announced that hip-hop/rap artist Travis Scott would be curating soundtrack for the game, using some of his own tracks and
NBA 2K19 is due out in just about one month so it seems that 2K Sports and Visual Concepts have decided that today is the perfect time to unveil the basketball sim’s first gameplay footage. This new video for NBA 2K19 is only about a minute long and it, well, probably looks about like you’d expect. Along with
2K Sports announced this morning that last year’s installment of NBA 2K18 in the long-running NBA 2K franchise is now the best-selling in the history of the series. After surpassing 10 million copies sold, NBA 2K18 has also pushed the franchise’s lifetime sale past 80 million.

Today, 2K Sports and Visual Concepts revealed that this year’s cover athlete for NBA 2K19 will be none other than Milwaukee Bucks forward Giannis Antetokounmpo. Joining the NBA back in 2013 at the age of 18, Antetokounmpo has quickly risen through the ranks to become one of the league’s most athletic and versatile players. The past two seasons have seen Antetokounmpo
The holiday season is coming to a close and while most of the presents have been unwrapped and gifts have been given, there’s still time to lock in the post-holiday sales with plenty of cheap games, with Best Buy offering some for the sports fans.

Recently, 2K Sports, the publisher of the popular NBA 2K basketball series, utilized the newest game in the franchise, NBA 2K18, to predict the results of the upcoming season. Using the MyLEAGUE mode within NBA 2K18, 2K Sports simulated
NBA 2K18 is one of the most difficult games I have reviewed in quite some time. I don’t mean that from the standpoint of the game being hard to play, but instead I mean it has been difficult for me to gather my feelings on the product as a whole. On one hand, NBA 2K18 continues to improve
If you haven’t considered buying extended memory options for your Nintendo Switch and you are a basketball fan, you may want to consider it — NBA 2K18 will reportedly use up to 107% of the handheld system’s default memory.

While coming with the usual updates and changes that we expect from sports titles each year, the upcoming NBA 2K18 will seek to provide a more social experience when it comes to its basketball simulations thanks to its new Neighborhood feature, with a new trailer (and free demo) coming later this week to show off the
Earlier this week at the NBA 2K18 event dubbed “Run the Neighborhood,” games press, YouTubers, and “influencers” got a first-ever look at the star-studded basketball title running on a Nintendo Switch. Of course, developer 2K wasn’t simply going to let us play on the Switch; the catch was they held the demo at a barbershop in
