NBA 2K23 to feature revamped gameplay, customizable dunking

Here’s how NBA 2K23 is tweaking the gameplay formula.

The makers of the popular video game NBA 2K announced a bevy of new features and upgrades to the highly-anticipated NBA 2K23, set to launch in September. Fans will be treated to new, more in-depth ways to customize their avatars, as well as a revamped system for dunking and handling the ball.

Gameplay Director at Visual Concepts Mike Wang explained some of these features in a press release today, stating, “From focusing on how players can attack the basket, to more realistic on-ball defense and a new tiered badge system, all the features we’ve brought to life in the game this year will create a more authentic gameplay experience that is enjoyable for everyone.”

This new list of gameplay options expands on some of the nuggets we learned last month at the official launch of NBA 2K23. Let’s explore some of these features a little further.
