NBA 2K27 is an upcoming 2026 basketball game developed by Visual Concepts, set to release for the Nintendo Switch 2, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, and Windows on September 4, 2026. Announced on July 28, 2026, it features three cover editions: Victor Wembanyama (Standard), Caitlin Clark (Deluxe – the first WNBA player to headline a global premium edition), and Derrick Rose (Ultra Edition). Gameplay introduces over 7,000 new ProPLAY animations, a redesigned Dynamic Dunk Meter, improved defensive AI, and a dynamic layup engine, alongside a new nighttime aesthetic for MyCAREER and The City, including the new Rucker Park location. MyTEAM adds a unified Auction House across current-gen platforms, while MyNBA introduces modern rules like No-Trade Clauses. Notably, this is the first entry in the series to skip last-generation consoles, with early access beginning August 26, 2026, exclusively for the Deluxe and Ultra editions.
