With the "next-gen" 2K25 continuing this trend, older console-gen gamers need not worry about missing out. Everything fans have known to love about the franchise will be available. This includes the single-player MyCAREER story mode, the management sim element of MyNBA, the competitive multiplayer, and the MyTEAM card-collecting mode.
This time around, the cover athletes for the game include:
- Jayson Tatum: Belonging to the Boston Celtics, the 26-year-old, five-time NBA All-Star champion is the shining jewel on the crown. He appears on the Standard and All-Star Editions.
- A'ja Wilson: The two-time WNBA champion has earned her place on the NBA 2K25 cover. She is featured on the WNBA and All-Star Editions of the game.
- Vince Carter: The Florida Sports Hall of Fame inductee has been a wild force on the playing field and got a spot on the aptly titled Hall of Fame Edition.
The game has been developed by Visual Concepts, the studio that is not just behind all past NBA 2K games, but also WWE 2K titles. As such, the upcoming rendition is bound to refine elements seen in previous entries in the NBA series. Will it surpass the mixed reception of its predecessor title? Only time will tell.
