"With a solid new story mode, a greatly improved MyTeam mode and the same high quality of presentation that 2K now brings to the series on Switch, NBA 2K21 is now the new definitive basketball game on the system. The unwanted microtransaction ogre continues to loom over most of the package, ever encouraging you to fork out more cash to accelerate your progress, but as long as you're capable of ignoring this and have the patience to slowly improve your player and team organically, the results will be infinitely more satisfying."

About

NBA 2K21 is a basketball simulation game that lets you manage careers, build teams, and run leagues. The controls feel smooth with refined dribble mechanics and tighter shooting arcs. MyCareer mode follows a player’s journey through the draft to stardom while MyTeam lets you assemble rosters from real NBA players. Local and online multiplayer options include co-op and split-screen modes for passing the controller. The game shines with hyper-realistic player animations and AI that mimics actual on-court strategies. Over 10 million players joined MyTeam mode in the first week of 2K20, and 2K21 adds new challenges and cosmetics to keep the competitive scene fresh. Available across seven platforms, it balances deep simulation for hardcore fans with accessible arcade modes for quick pick-up games.
