This weekend, NBA 2K22 is coming to our PCs and consoles, once again in a cross-generation version. In addition to its MyCAREER mode which seems to be gaining new features, 2K Games remains timid with 2K23 which does not seem to differ greatly from NBA 2K22. But we can also remember the arrival of the Jordan Challenge mode in game to be able to relive the greatest moments of the GOAT So much information that we dissect you in length, width and across, just below.
The GOAT is back. The NBA 2K23 Michael Jordan Edition will honor the biggest star in basketball history, a tribute to the essential number 23, legend of the Chicago Bulls. If gameplay images are rare in this one-minute sequence, the sense of spectacle is not lacking and manages to tickle the excitement of game fans despite the quality of previous NBA 2K iterations. Indeed, the memory of a glorious NBA 2K11 floats in the memory, the last game from 2K Games to have honored the legendary guard of the Chicago Bulls. Moreover, the 10 Jordan challenges should be back in this edition since 2K Games has been announced to have updated and modernized them for the occasion. If pre-orders for the game start on July 7, we will have to wait a little longer to find out more about its content.

These ten missions introduced in NBA 2K11 invite you to relive the most important moments of the career of the six-time NBA champion.
