From what we’ve seen, the feature has been developed in a pretty impressive way too, and it will give players various options for a fine degree of control over how the match progresses. AI has apparently played a major role in the development of the new features, as the player simulation will work in a much more realistic way than what we’ve seen in other basketball simulation games.
All in all, this is shaping up to be an amazing entry into the series, and a game that every basketball fan should check out.
Even those who don’t enjoy directing their players around so much should still enjoy some features of the title, since as we said above, it’s developed with some strong management features in mind and aims to please people like them exactly.
It’s not hard to see why this title has managed to dominate the market for basketball games for so long, and if 2K Games keep putting so much effort and polish into the franchise in the future as well, we expect to see it remaining relevant for a very long time. It would be curious to see where this franchise ends up with the help of modern hardware in the next few years as well, but there is time for that.
