According to 2K, the studio went to great lengths to ensure true-to-life realism by bringing in the WNBA rookie class to enter a high-tech scanning trailer with thousands of cameras to accurately capture their likeness, facial expressions, and more in NBA 2K25.
2K has already hit the court running and gunning, dropping the first courtside report, which discussed the MyGM game mode, NBA Commissioner’s Cup integration, and the new Steph Curry Era feature.
