I got to play an early build of NBA 2K27 at Community Day this year, and saw some of the changes and new additions that developer Visual Concepts has in store for this year’s game. From a gameplay perspective, 2K27 boasts some new shot types and movement changes, but it’s MyCareer Eras that brought me the most fun.

The NBA 2K27 Game Reveal dropped on Tuesday, and it showcased a host of new features, including ones coming to Gameplay, MyCareer, The City and MyPlayer Builder.

LOS ANGELES – As part of NBA 2K27’s Community Day and Game Reveal on Tuesday, I got to play an early version of the game in addition to seeing its unveiling live in person. Based on what I’ve already seen, I don’t think it’s a stretch to say that it has a chance to be the most promising sports game of the current generation.

NBA 2K27 unveils major updates across gameplay, MyTEAM, MyNBA, The City, MyCAREER, MyPLAYER and more ahead of its September 4 launch.

NBA 2K announced several major new features, animations and add-ons at NBA 2K27 Community Day at the Intuit Dome.

Players can invite a friend to play alongside them in MyCareer, or face off against legends like Michael Jordan and Magic Johnson.

K quietly moved Early Access up two days at the reveal. Nine days of head start now, and one platform question nobody is answering.

Brooklyn Nets rookie guard Mikel Brown Jr. is rated as the seventh-best rookie for the 2026-27 season in the upcoming NBA 2K27 video game.

The NBA 2K27 Gameplay Reveal showed off a completely revamped Takeover System and all of the abilities players can use on the court. This year, Takeover now revolves around five disciplines, with abilities you can equip for each one.
