NBA 2K20: Pre-Order Bonuses, What's In The Legend Edition, And More
Pre-ordering NBA 2K20 comes with quite a few perks.
NBA 2K20, the latest in 2K's ongoing annual basketball franchise, will arrive on September 6 for PS4, Xbox One, Switch, and PC. It will also be available on Google Stadia when the tech giant's game streaming service launches later this year. Anthony Davis of the New Orleans Pelicans and Dwyane Wade of the Miami Heat will grace the cover of the game's standard, Digital Deluxe, and Legend editions. Davis was previously one of three cover athletes featured in NBA 2K16.
A demo for NBA 2K20 is available now on PS4 and Xbox One, but it's a bit of an odd one. The demo focuses on a character creator more than on-court gameplay, letting you adjust various badges and attributes before joining a rematch of last season's NBA Finals to test your custom character.
Notably, NBA 2K20 is integrating WNBA players into the game for the first time in the series. The game will feature all 12 WNBA teams, as well as some of the league's standout players. Those teams will be available in the Play Now and Season modes. NBA 2K20 also revealed its player ratings and released a new trailer featuring its MyCareer story mode, which you can watch below.
