NBA 2K27 is a basketball simulation where you play games using NBA and WNBA teams or create a player of your own. On court, you use shooting, dribbling, passing, and defense to compete in basketball matchups.
In MyCAREER, create a MyPLAYER and follow a career story as you work toward NBA stardom. The City offers courts such as The REC and Park, where you can play with friends and form a Crew; career co-op is also available.
MyTEAM lets you collect NBA and WNBA players and build a fantasy lineup for single-player or multiplayer games. MyNBA focuses on managing a team, while Play Now and The W provide additional ways to play; those three modes are available offline.
The supplied reviews are largely critical, with repeated complaints about slow progression and microtransactions, MyCAREER’s story requirements and forced teammate, inconsistent AI and shooting, and limited changes from the previous game. Some players still enjoy the on-court play, citing smoother gameplay, animations, or a more demanding AI, while others call out career co-op and offline MyNBA or The W as appealing features. A few reviews also report that PC players cannot crossplay with consoles.
The hustle doesn’t stop and the run never ends in NBA 2K27. Chase greatness around the clock in MyCAREER, MyTEAM, and MyNBA, and make your hoop dreams a reality.
Put The City on your back and lead a new era of MyPLAYERs fueled by basketball. Let your passion power your unique style on and off the court, team up with friends to form a Crew, and dominate the courts at The REC, Park, and beyond.
Create a MyPLAYER and experience a legacy-defining story in MyCAREER, where you’ll be tested on your path to becoming the greatest player of all time. Shatter expectations, compete against legends of the sport, and leave your mark on NBA history.
Master your skills with lifelike gameplay animations directly translated from real NBA action. Use an array of ProPLAY® features to cook defenders with ankle-breaking crossovers, show off your range with enhanced shooting mechanics, and become a matchup nightmare every time you step on the court.
Collect your favorite NBA and WNBA stars with ease and build a fantasy squad for the ages. Grow your collection and assemble endless lineup combinations; take control of your MyTEAM and put it to the test in single-player and multiplayer modes.
Play Now, MyNBA, and The W are available offline. All other game modes and features require Internet connection, may require online account registration and may not be available to all users at all times.
