NBA 2K24 Reveals Main Cover Art & Game Details
Check out the remaining main covers for NBA 2K24 as they reveal the primary cover and the WNBA version, along with the release date.
This morning, 2K Games revealed the remaining covers for NBA 2K24, as well as more details on the next installment of the series. Yesterday the company revealed the two special editions of the game as we got to see Kobe Bryant take the cover for both. Today, as you can see below, the main cover will celebrate the 25th Anniversary of the basketball series, while the WNBA Edition will feature Sabrina Ionescu as the cover athlete. While the finer details of what the game will have to offer was kind of shorthanded, we now know the game will drop on September 18th, as well as more info on all versions, which we have for you below.
To celebrate the return of Kobe on the NBA 2K cover, players will be able to channel their inner-Mamba mentality in the brand-new Mamba Moments mode. Recreate some of Kobe's most captivating performances and progress through his transcendent journey from a young phenom to one of the greatest players of all time. In addition, NBA 2K24 will introduce ProPLAY – a groundbreaking new technology that directly translates NBA footage into NBA 2K24 gameplay. ProPLAY delivers animations and movements via on-court NBA action for a generational leap in authenticity on PS5 and Xbox Series X|S. More details on Mamba Moments and ProPLAY will be released later this summer.
