"While the introduction of microtransactions is hardly surprising considering the history of its new publisher, they don't hit NBA 2K Playgrounds 2 as hard as might expect. It will take you a while to grind out every player (unless you just buy them all from the off), but it helps that the core arcade gameplay remains as fun and enjoyable as ever. It doesn't quite capture the blissful mayhem of NBA Jam, but if the main NBA 2K series has always felt a little too realistic for you, this larger-than-life spin-off offers a bright and empowering way to defy gravity like Air Jordan himself."

About

NFL 2K Playmakers lets you build and upgrade NFL rosters using collectible player cards. Construct teams for offense, defense, and special teams, then use play cards to execute strategies in turn-based matchups. Progress by leveling cards through battles and equipping them with gear that boosts stats. Each match requires balancing your lineup with situational play cards to outmaneuver opponents. The game stands out with its deep roster-building mechanics and the ability to enhance players with equipment and leveled-up skills. With hundreds of collectible cards and strategic play options, it offers a portable but detailed sports strategy experience. Early reviews note its addictive progression loops, though some players wish for multiplayer modes to expand the competition beyond single-player challenges.
