As it is not the first time 2K sports honored the late Kobe Bryant because his departure, the box artwork for its current-gen version is a painting (instead of the usual in-person image for the other versions) that shows Bryant sporting his #8 jersey because he dunks. For the next-gen, the box artwork comes with a photo of Bryant wearing his #24 jersey as he waves to a crowd.

The closer we get to the unveiling of NBA 2K21 on next-gen, the more excited I am about what is ahead. The current-gen variant has fumbled around a bit, but I must believe a few of the issues are because of 2K dividing its sources together with all the next-gen iteration.

It appears obvious, 2K has firearms blazing on the PlayStation 5 and Xbox collection X models, and don't forget what they did to set the bar as we moved into the current-gen back in 2013. This time around, all indications point to 2K doing their best to deliver the type of visual experience that's unmatched across--at the least--all of the other titles set to launch in the first week of next-gen availability. Right now, the single most impressive looking game that I've seen on next-gen is Spider-Man: Miles Morales. If you have not seen it yet, here is a sneak peak and you tell me if you can easily differentiate when the action moves from Buy NBA 2K22 MT Coins cutscene to actual gameplay.
