How to Pre-Order NBA 2K24: Bonus & Edition Differences
NBA 2K24 releases worldwide on September 8. In honor of the illustrious franchise's 24th iteration, 2K fittingly named Kobe Bryant as the game's cover star. And, for the first time in series history, NBA 2K24 will feature crossplay.
Unfortunately for some players that have yet to make the leap, cross-play will only be available on "next-gen" consoles. We also know that Seasons are set to make a return, but besides that, it's been rather radio silent on what fans can expect.
However, 2K did unveil the game's preorder details, so let's jump right into what you need to know.
