Changes for an ever more present realism

If NBA 2K is a reference in the microcosm of sports games, it’s not for nothing! Thanks to realism and ever more innovative concepts, the license has built a solid reputation throughout its history, both among basketball players and neophytes alike. Thanks to polished gameplay and an abundance of game modes, everyone is likely to find something for themselves.

For this 2K23, the development teams have focused on penetrations and attacking the circle. The dunk freaks should therefore take great pleasure in destroying the hoop and posting their opponents. Thanks to the right stick, it will now be possible to choose the finishing movements more precisely: stick up for a two-handed dunk, stick down to stay hooked to the basket, etc…

The shot gauges are also getting a little makeover. Basically, five different shot gauges are offered, but the player can unlock up to fifteenenough to allow him to find the one that suits him best.

But the main change that will appeal to purists is related to this gauge. While previously a fluorescent green animation accompanied perfect timing and a shot from the start of the ball, indicating to everyone that the shot was going to go in, this animation now only occurs as soon as the ball touches the hoop or goes in. Ditto for the indications of defense and imperfect timing if you checked the option in the parameters. A way for Visual Concepts to encourage players to continue to fight for possession rather than going back to defense or counter-attacking directly.

As a reminder, pre-orders of the title from Visual Concepts and 2K Games are open. The Championship edition and its very nice package are at the crazy price of 150€ maximum.
