BA 2K19 is more than just a basketball game – it’s a huge celebration for a series enjoying
its 20th anniversary. This year, the honour of the standard edition cover goes to Giannis Antetokounmpo, the Milwaukee Bucks’ star player, while the special Anniversay Edition highlights living legend LeBron James, who returns to the box art for the fi rst time since NBA 2K14. As for the game itself, NBA 2K19
refi nes the basketball experience that Visual Concepts have been working at since the very start of the series. So, if you’re looking for an incredibly realistic videogame recreation of this high octane, high-scoring sport, where better to turn than a team of developers that’s been honing their craft over two decades of dunks? MyCareer is the perfect place to start,
as you create your own player and begin your journey from small town obscurity to NBA greatness in a fully fl edged b-ball
narrative experience. Between games, meanwhile, you’ll be able to wander the Neighborhood, a beautifully realised slice of urban Americana that’s packed with activities and minigames to explore. So, instead of scrolling through menus between matches, you’ll be skating the streets or practicing dunks in the cages.
Nothing but net Another returning favourite is the
MyTeam mode, which gives you the chance to create your perfect on-court quintet. Collect cards to unlock past and present NBA greats, assemble your dream squad, and then dominate your opponents on the court. Where MyTeam really gets lifted is with its new Unlimited mode. This allows you to choose your absolute best team, with none of the usual restrictions, and play against others anywhere in the world. It’s just one more treat in a package that’s been 20 years in the making. If you’re yet to make your NBA debut, now’s the perfect time.
