The latest installment of the iconic NBA 2K game franchise will be released soon, and NBA fans are ecstatic. The late Hall of Fame Los Angeles Lakers shooting guard Kobe Bryant will grace the cover of the video game this year.

There will be two versions of the game: the standard Kobe Bryant version and the ultimate Black Mamba version. As is customary, 2K makes two versions of the game to sell, one of which includes additional bonus prizes and improvements.

Players will be able to play in what the game calls “Mamba Moments,” where they can replicate various iconic events from Bryant’s career.

2K did this with Michael Jordan a few years ago, and it was a huge hit with gaming enthusiasts. With Bryant, it should be even better.

“The Lakers legend famously idolized Jordan, so it seems fitting that the Mamba Moments mode in NBA 2K24 comes after the Michael Jordan Challenge in NBA 2K23.”

Bryant is still hugely beloved around the world, and his career was one for the ages. This feature should provide players with an excellent opportunity to delve deeper into his legacy.

Fans will remember Bryant better if he is thrown right into the action. He has some of the best moments in NBA history, paving the door for some amazing game features.
