NBA 2K20 gets its cover stars and a release date

2K have announced that NBA 2K20 is coming this year and will once again feature two athletes on the cover of the game, with one star gracing the cover of two editions of the game and the other on the Legend Edition. If that were not enough for you, we also got a teaser trailer for the game, or at least the cover arts, check it out.

Six-time NBA All-Star, three-time All-NBA First Team, three-time NBA All-Defensive Team and 2012 Olympic gold medallist Anthony Davis returns as cover star for the Standard and Deluxe Editions.

“I’m honoured to be back representing NBA 2K,” said Davis. “Being picked as the face of NBA 2K20 means the world to me, and I’m excited for the fans to experience the best sports simulation in the world this spring.”

Three-time NBA Champion, 13-time NBA All-Star, 2008 Olympic gold medallist and 2006 NBA Finals MVP Dwyane Wade will grace the cover of the Legend Edition.

Legend Edition cover star Dwyane Wade added, “I’ve been blessed to spend 16 years of my life playing the game I love at the highest-level, and to culminate my career by joining NBA greats as an NBA 2K Legend Edition cover star makes me incredibly proud. My family and I love NBA 2K, and I’m truly grateful to all of the fans who have watched me, and played as me, throughout the years.”

“The NBA 2K franchise has the distinct honour of selecting the league’s best talent to grace the cover of the game,” said Alfie Brody, Vice President of Marketing for NBA 2K. “Anthony and Dwyane represent everything that makes basketball such a global phenomenon – whether it’s the thunderous dunks, transcendent talent or era-defining legacies – and serve as a true inspiration for the next generation of NBA superstars coming up in the league.”

The game is coming to Xbox One, PlayStation 4, Switch and PC, on September 6.
