Description

NBA 2K20 for PC is a sports simulation game featuring basketball from the NBA. It is produced under official licence from the NBA itself, so the sponsorship, game rules and many of the players’ detail, quirks and playing styles are as authentic as they can possibly be.

About the Game


As with other similar sports simulation games, there are various options available to the players. You can choose to play as one of the many real life players loaded into the game, ready to go with all their real life statistics and position preferences all filled in, or you can opt to build your own player, fleshing them out from a bare bones blank and giving them plenty of character, personality and a whole lot of ball-handling skill!

This incarnation of the game offers all the features that players have come to expect from high-end officially recognised simulation games, with superb, realistic graphics that could pass as video footage, gameplay that is smooth and flowing, alongside 3D scans and motion capture of real player’s movements and signature gestures to add authentic moves and quirks to the game.

New to This Edition


For the first time, the WNBA is represented in the game, and the inclusion is wide and profound. There are twelve world-class teams – all based on real life teams – with player’s hairstyles and faces accurately captured in the studios. But this diversity is not simply cosmetic: there are detailed playbooks and screeds of defensive tactics for each team, all based on real life coaching work and team play.

As always, there are plenty of microtransactions for the impatient to get to the top of the training and playing pool as fast as possible, but you can achieve exactly the same results by grinding away and earning the items you need or want instead, so there is no risk of play or winning becoming divided into ‘winners who can pay for victory’ and ‘losers who cannot or will not pay’. Grind your way to the top and know you have earned your victory!

This game features more of an open world than is usually experienced, so your characters can get out of the court and do some wider exploring, seeing what they can find and use, and enjoying some downtime in which they are not either playing or training.

The graphics and game coding has been tweaked so that ball handling and defensive plays are smoother, while are rewards richer. The AI has been upgraded to provide a more realistic interplay between player and computer.

Fun Facts


This game features three versions rather than the usual two.

  • Anthony Davis of the Lakers features on the standard version of the game, which offers a comprehensive stable of players, access to the courts and the open world. Any achievements must be earned or paid for

  • Anthony Davis also features on the Deluxe version which offers the same benefits of the standard game, with some in-game currency, a certain number of training points, and a clothing capsule, along with a bunch of other goodies that will see you get freebies sent to you each week

  • The Legends version is graced by Dwayne Wade. This pack gives you a lot of in-game currency, training packs, clothing and designer shoe capsules, an apparel collection and a positive wealth of weekly rewards, designed to help you make your team into the best that they can be

  • NBA 2K20 for PC is available for purchase on Instant Gaming for a fraction of its retail price. You will receive an official key and be able to play the game in seconds. Play smart. Pay less.

    The game is good overall despite some bugs ("simulate until my return" impossible in My Career, already cheaters in Park ...). This does not prevent me from having fun playing but the game could have been better finalized before its release.

    Gameplay is like a cotton picker with concrete boots. AI movement lightning speed compared to player character. Horrible game, should be moved to company who can actually make sports games. Career mode you are outranked by a mile. In actual life, player with a skill set like the career mode start would never made it to even college series.
    • stiff gameplay
    • rookie mode player outranked by everyone
    • unreal nba career with a player that cant run

    Great game! To be exact it is my first NBA 2K game for a console. I have been enjoying it ever since I bought it. I would recommend it! It is great to play with friends when they come over. And the game is a definite hour burner!
    • Great dynamics
    • Great atmosphere
    • Random moments

    It' s just a normal 2k game. Nothing special and also not bad. The gameplay is quite fun and you have a lot of freedom to experiment. Unfortunately the game isn' t well optimised for PC and i often get crashes.
    • Makes a lot of fun.
    • Looks pretty good.
    • Random crashes.
    • Things don't get explained enough.

    Terrible, buggy, online is boring since everyone is 99 when you are just begining, waiting one hour to play 2 games in my park, servers trash. Huge advantage for the players who buy items ingame (vc).
    • Career story is fun
    • All of Online
    • Bugs

    --- IT'S A TRAP ---

    Yeah, I don't really like Basketball elements in this Online Casino here, they better be removed entirely.

    If you haven't seen this on Reddit, YouTube or somewhere else:
    This game is a legit copy of NBA 2K19, there are even banners ingame that have 2k19 written all over them. How do people even get paid for making low/no-effort software like this?

    Don't buy this game at any given chance, they will backstab you later once all the money is flowing in for 2k.

    (The head of 2K is also a Chairman of ESRB [organization that makes age ratings for videogames], crazy, right? The game is rated for 3yo.)

    Better go outside and play actual Basketball.
    You might meet some people/spend time with friends and it keeps you more healthy.

    Just some friendly advice.
    • The more people play this game, the less I have to deal with IRL
    • Money and Time, wasted
    • Lootboxes/Microtransactions/CASINOS, they never learn, do they?
    • Everything else
