2K Games Announces Online Cultural Basketball Event With 2KFest
2K Games announced this week they're holding a special online cultural basketball event totally online with 2KFest. Taking place on November 20th, the goal of the event is to hold a 24-hour global celebration of music, basketball, gaming, and culture, featuring NBA and WNBA All-Stars and legends. As well as musical talent and influencers from around the world. As you can see from the poster below, this is going to be a star-studded event with a number of players and musicians taking part. It's the kind of thing we could use in November as we start heading into the colder months and countdown until the next NBA season kicks off.
On the heels of the global launch of NBA 2K21 for next-gen consoles, the inaugural 24-hour livestream event is the first of its kind for 2K, and will bring an action-packed day of experiences and exclusive 2K content that you don't want to miss. Hosted by sports broadcaster, Ros Gold-Onwude, and FIFA World Cup Golden Glove winner and current Real Madrid goalkeeper, Thibaut Courtois, 2KFest features the NBA's biggest superstars and legends including cover athletes, Damian Lillard and Zion Williamson, along with Anthony Davis, Kevin Durant, Candace Parker, Ben Simmons, Jayson Tatum, Vince Carter, and Shaquille O'Neal, and will include performances from some of the hottest artists in the game including D.A.M.E. Dolla, Quavo, Saweetie, 88rising, Aitch, and more.
