It will be the twenty-first installment of the NBA 2K series.

The cover player for the Standard Edition is Anthony Davis, while Dwyane Wade will appear on the Legend Edition cover.

It will be the direct sequel to NBA 2K19, and will be followed by NBA 2K21.

It is also expected to retain additional content such as the historical squads and All-Time Teams.

Make no mistake, theres a reason why this is the best basketball game there is.

Parents hate it but the people that love it, know its everything.

Yes, its NBA 2K season and we have the newest edition to the series.

NBA 2K21.

If youre a hardcore player of NBA 2K you wont be disappointed and if youre a noob to the NBA 2K series then prepare to play with all of your favorite NBA players from your favorite teams in all the NBA arenas for hours and hours.

NBA 2K will always be very engaging to those that love the series.

The reality is, there isnt much that has changed cosmetically from 2K20, meaning the overall look.

The team at 2K made sure they paid close attention to detail so your favorite arenas and players look exactly as you see them on TV or very close to it.

NBA 2K21 is more about refinements to the gaming system and how youll play the game.

Thats whats new this time around and once you get into playing 2K21, you should see how much the changes make the game better in certain areas.

What was kind of a pain to use for some when it was first introduced is much more of a pleasure to use this time around, at least it was for me.

The shot stick this year places a little more focus on accuracy and timing by having the shot meter closer to the sweet spot when you pull down on the stick.

With this, you get much faster and accurate releases making it much easier when you attempt to shoot.

The shot stick also places a focus on character positioning, body movement and angles when youre shooting, so if youre poorly positioned your shot will be bad.

Unlike the button, which is press it, shoot it, the shot stick wants to give you that simulated feel of a shot, so if youre able to really practice with the shot stick youll be tough to beat and even tougher for defenders trying to stop your shot.

You can still use the button and play the more traditional way but if you want say youre good at this game then learn to master the shot stick.

Some will like it and some wont but 2K put some work into making it better.

With the loss of one of the greatest basketball players ever to touch a basketball in Kobe Bryant it was befitting that the team over at 2K games place a focus on Kobe and really make this game a piece of historic basketball nostalgia as opposed to just a game.

If youre a fan of playing the game in story form then MyCAREER has got you covered.

This year there is a focus on character progression and coming up through the ranks and paying your punk dues.

Youll come up from high school and hopefully become a high ranking prospect then you have your pick of 10 NCAA schools to go to build your career before the NBA draft.

Once you get to the NBA you can improve your player, make himher great and lead your team to the Finals.

An interesting story line, lots of dialogue and some basketball make it a complete experience.

Its still heavily reliant on micro-transactions which can be a big problem for those who dont have the extra money to shell out after buying the game, especially for those that bought the Mamba Forever edition.

You can grind it out if you have the time and if you do, great, but a lot of us dont so I think MyTEAM can be so much greater if the grind wasnt so punishing.

As a whole though despite my personal gripes, MyTEAM is a lot of fun to play.
