The release of NBA 2K 19 later this Fall will mark the 20th Anniversary of the basketball sports game and 2K and its fans are already dubbing it the G.0.A.T. edition. Of course, the majority of NBA 2k's fan base are only concerned with whether the game's servers have been improved.
Nevertheless, check out the reveal trailer, which features 2 Chainz, Rapsody and Jerreau. In 16 seasons, this marks just the second time James has appeared on a 2K cover.
This year marks the 30th anniversary for the development team at Visual Concepts and the 20th for the NBA 2K series, so it was important to commemorate this milestone by partnering with the most iconic athlete of this generation in LeBron James,” said Alfie Brody, VP of Marketing for NBA 2K [via press release]. “LeBron’s carefully crafted wording on the NBA 2K19 20th Anniversary Edition cover encapsulate the passion and drive that have elevated him to all-time greatness making him the perfect cover star.”
Legends aren’t born, they’re made. We’re honored to have LeBron James as the cover athlete for our 20th Anniversary Edition of #NBA2K19
