NBA 2K23 for Nintendo Switch

Product Information

MyCareer, MyTeam, and MyLeague are still your main ways to play, with the new 'Mamba Moments' subbing into the slot occupied by last year's brilliant 'Jordan Challenge'. 2K24's next-gen release brought a whole batch of new features to the table (Crossplay, ProPlay, The W, MyNBA), but with none of them making the cut on Switch, this version feels more watered-down than usual.

Ball without limits as you collect and assemble a bevy of legendary talent from any era in MyTEAM. Dominate the hardwood each Season, and bring your vision to life with a broad set of customization tools to create the perfect look for your perfect starting five. Similarly disappointing is the MyCareer mode — which is usually one of our favourites. Much like NBA 2K23, the Switch misses out on the next-gen consoles' new expansive hub world, 'The City' — where players can buy new gear, play streetball or simply strut their stuff — and instead has to settle for the much smaller 'The Neighborhood'. The mode is still very much built on a pay-to-win structure, with player upgrades and gear dependent on 2K's in-game currency (VC), which otherwise relies on a silly amount of grinding to catch up with others that walk the courts. The option of a two-player provides an abundance of freedom and customization. When competing against a friend, there is an option to challenge one to five NBA players simultaneously. This game mode is incredibly fast-paced, resembling Park, as there are no timeouts or substitutions. In a two-player game, the Joy-Con controllers can be held sideways and used, or one player can opt to use the Pro Controller while the other chooses to utilize the Joy-Con controller.

Even with how smoothly this one plays on the console, with some clean animations and a sprinkling of improvements to MyTeam being the real MVPs, all of this is overshadowed by just how watered-down this year's entry feels. With none of the new game modes making the jump to Switch apart from the disappointing Mamba Moments, a severely lessened MyCareer and a model that continues to be plagued by microtransactions and long load times, the 2K franchise on Switch has never needed more of a boost. If you are after a basketball game on the go, last year's offering is a much better option.
