For the first time in franchise history, players can collect and play with both current and legendary WNBA stars, pairing them alongside NBA icons to create dream rosters.

Imagine teaming up Paige Bueckers and Shai Gilgeous-Alexander or running a pick-and-roll with Angel Reese and Carmelo Anthony. The addition of WNBA cards also includes a dedicated Domination tier, WNBA uniforms, full league court floors, and updated commentary featuring Kevin Harlan, Greg Anthony, and Stan Van Gundy.

All-New Game Changer Cards

These new consumable cards give players the power to manipulate their MyTEAM experience in real-time. From boosting REP multipliers to recovering win streaks in Showdown or auto-evolving Player Cards, the Game Changer Cards introduce an entirely new level of strategy to the mode.

Triple Threat Park at Night

Fans of NBA 2K15 will remember Sunset Beach, but this fan-favorite location gets a neon-soaked makeover in NBA 2K26. Now called Triple Threat Park, the new environment features courts for 3v3 and 2v2 games, win-streak rewards, and even Streak Buster incentives for teams that end another’s streak. It’s all about high-stakes competition under the night lights.

Competitive players, take note, MyTEAM is raising the stakes in King of the Court mode with weekly $10,000 grand prizes for PlayStation®5 and Xbox Series X|S players. Starting September 12, 2025, participants will battle to be the top finisher every weekend, with the competition continuing through August 2026.

Breakout: Gauntlet

This new game mode will push players to their limits by testing their entire collection of Player Cards in games of increasing difficulty. Here’s the twist: each Player Card can only be used once per run. The further you climb, the better the rewards, with an ever-changing final prize awaiting at the end.

All-Star Team-Up

For Gen 9 players, All-Star Team-Up introduces fast-paced 5v5 co-op matches where each player controls their favorite NBA or WNBA card. Teams that stick together and win five games in a row will earn bonus rewards alongside season progress, adding extra incentive to work as a unit.
