NBA 2K22 is undoubtedly the ultimate basketball game in the whole of the NBA series, and every basketball game ever made. The game is a treat for every basketball fan and there are reasons for it.
NBA features some of the best game modes you might have seen and let us just not talk about the graphics. Ok, let us talk about the graphics anyway. The developers 2K Sports have included the best of the graphical fidelity you have ever witnessed!
Okay, so what is the best part about this game NBA 2K22? When asked this question, a lot of players have mentioned the revamped Seasons system as the best. If you have no idea about what seasons are in NBA 2K22, here is everything you need to know –
WHAT ARE SEASONS IN NBA 2K22?
The developers 2K Sports introduced this seasons concept in NBA 2K21. According to them, they were fascinated with how other games used the idea of Battle Pass so well, so they implemented this same rough approach. At first, they introduced the seasons system exclusively in the MyTEAM mode in 2K21. But now the seasons are going wide and this feature will be available in MyCAREER, MyTEAM and The W modes in NBA 2K22.
Here is the best fact about the seasons. While most games require you to purchase the battle passes, NBA 2K22 offers the seasons absolutely free! This means that there will be a plethora of goodies up for grab, and everything for free! Just like you upgrade the levels in the battle passes available in games like PUBG, Apex Legends, Free Fire, etc., you will do the same in 2K22 as well!
You can earn XP by playing games in The City, Neighborhood, Rec, Pro-Am, Events, and by completing individual quests with specific challenges.
HOW LONG DO THE SEASONS LAST?
According to the developers 2K Sports, the seasons in NBA 2K22 will last roughly for about six weeks. This means that you will have six long weeks to reach the max level 40 and grab the rewards present!
