Every year, 2K Games and Visual Concepts Studio make sure to deliver the latest addition to their beloved NBA 2K franchise. This time around, they’ve honored the legacy of the incredible Kobe Bryant by featuring him on the cover—an extraordinary tribute for a true basketball legend who sadly passed away in January 2020 during a tragic helicopter crash that also took the life of his young daughter Gianna. The game offers fans a chance to experience some of Kobe’s most memorable moments and celebrate his incredible career.But NBA 2K24 isn’t just about nostalgia; it’s also packed with exciting new features designed to enhance gameplay for everyone, from seasoned pros to beginners. Whether it’s improving shooting timing, refining dribbling techniques, perfecting lay-ups, or adding a more intuitive Takeover gauge, the developers are aiming to make the game accessible and enjoyable for all players. One of the most notable changes is the simplification of shooting timing, making it easier for new players to score without needing to memorize complex player-specific mechanics. So whether you’re an NBA enthusiast or just starting out, there’s never been a better time to dive into the world of NBA 2K24!
When it comes to timing, lay-ups have received a makeover with more flexibility, especially when finishing near the basket. Dunk enthusiasts can still show off their skills, now with even more exciting options depending on the moment. Plus, there’s great news for shot takers: “Shot Timing Release” has been replaced by “Shot Timing Visual Cue,” allowing you to customize your timing without worrying about button pressure. This means you can play consistently no matter which team you pick! And don’t forget that the Takeover gauge has gotten a fantastic upgrade this year, giving you the choice to enhance specific categories like shooting, defense, rebounding, or physicality.
Get ready for the big drop on September 8th—NBA 2K24 is heading your way for all platforms including PC, PS5, Xbox Series X|S, PS4, Xbox One, and even Nintendo Switch!
