NBA 2K24 Introduces Cross-Play for the First Time, Arriving on September 8th

NBA 2K24 is revolutionizing the gaming landscape by introducing cross-play functionality between the current-gen PS5 and Xbox Series S/X versions. This groundbreaking feature allows players from different platforms to join forces and compete against each other, a first for the highly acclaimed basketball simulation franchise. Unfortunately, PC gamers will not have the opportunity to experience this feature and will also miss out on ProPlay, an innovative animation system that brings NBA footage to life in the game.

The game pays tribute to the legendary Kobe Bryant, who tragically passed away in 2020, by featuring him on the cover. In addition, NBA 2K24 introduces a captivating mode called ‘Mamba Moments,’ enabling players to relive some of Kobe Bryant’s greatest performances. It is set to be a nostalgic and awe-inspiring experience for fans of the late Hall of Famer. Mark your calendars for September 8th, as NBA 2K24 will be available on all major gaming platforms.

The game’s website entices players with the opportunity to embody one of the greatest basketball players of all time in the Mamba Moments mode. This mode allows players to recreate Kobe Bryant’s most dominant and memorable moments throughout his 20-year career with the Los Angeles Lakers, akin to the popular ‘Jordan Challenge’ from NBA 2K23. Additionally, ProPlay promises to elevate the gaming experience by seamlessly translating real-world NBA footage into the game engine, although further details are yet to be revealed.

It is perplexing to see PC players excluded from the cross-play and ProPlay features, especially considering the platform’s compatibility. With the release of the new-gen PS5 and Xbox Series S/X consoles, PC players have consistently received last-gen versions of the game, following a trend that started with EA Sports’ NFL Madden. However, this year, even the PC community will be able to enjoy the full range of features in NBA 2K24, including ProPlay. Regrettably, cross-play functionality will still be absent.

NBA 2K24 brings back several familiar game modes that have captivated fans in the past. MyTeam, the game’s equivalent of Ultimate Team, allows players to construct their dream team through pack openings and online player card transfers, competing in various thrilling competitions. Alternatively, players can take on the role of an NBA manager in MyNBA and lead their team to victory in offline-based game modes.

To add to the excitement, NBA 2K24 introduces Victor Wembanyama, the highly anticipated seven-foot-tall prospect making his Summer League debut with the San Antonio Spurs. Players who pre-order NBA 2K24’s 25th Anniversary Edition between July 7th and 14th will have access to this exciting addition to their MyTeam lineup. The 25th Anniversary Edition also includes a 90-rated card, a Wembanyama jersey for MyPlayer customization, and a Ruby Devin Booker Card.

NBA 2K24 offers three editions for players to choose from. The standard Kobe Bryant Edition, priced at Rs. 3,999/ $59.99 on PC and Rs. 4,399/ $59.99 on PS4, Xbox One, and the Nintendo Switch, caters to fans seeking the core gaming experience. The Black Mamba Edition, available at Rs. 5,599 (PC) and Rs. 7,499/ $99.99 on other platforms, offers additional perks such as virtual currency, a Kobe Bryant Sapphire card, and exclusive shirts for My Player. Finally, the limited-time 25th Anniversary Edition priced at Rs. 8,500 on PC and Rs 9,800/ $150 on PlayStation and Xbox platforms, combines all the bonuses from the Black Mamba Edition with a 12-month subscription to NBA League Pass.

Mark the date – NBA 2K24 will be released on September 8th for PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series S/X, and Nintendo Switch, offering an immersive and thrilling basketball experience that fans won’t want to miss.
