2K Games has released the demo for the current gen version for NBA 2K21, with it being available on PS4, Xbox One, and Switch. The demo contains four teams in total to play as including Milwaukee Bucks, Los Angeles Clippers, the All-Time Lakers featuring Kobe Bryant, and the All-Time Celtics featuring Bill Russell. The MyPlayer builder is also included so you can create your player who can be transferred to the main release of NBA 2K21 when it comes out. You can also try out the new shooting system and Pro Stick. The download links are below.
NBA 2K21 will be releasing on September 4th for current gen, and at launch of the PS5 and Xbox Series X. However, players will not be getting a free upgrade from the current gen version of NBA 2K21 to the PS5 or Xbox Series X editions. 2K is charging for the upgrade through the Mamba Forever edition of NBA 2K21 which will cost £84.99, and that will grant access to current-gen and next-gen versions of the game. While there is a cost to access both versions all progression will be shared across platform families, so you will not need to start again should start NBA 2K21 on PS4/Xbox One and then migrate to PS5/Xbox Series X.
The cover stars will be Damian Lillard for the PS4 and Xbox One versions, while Zion Williamson will be the cover star for the PS5 and Xbox Series X. The Mamba Forever will have Kobe Bryant who passed away in a helicopter crash earlier this year along with his daughter and seven others.
