If you thought that 2K were all about the 2025 games what with Civilization VII, Borderlands 4 and Mafia: The Old Country all getting shown off recently, but there is still more to come this year. Case in point NBA 2K25 is getting more details revealed as the September release draws closer.

The full breakdown of changes and updates can found here, but here are the highlights. These were provided by 2K, so they are still somewhat detailed.

MyTEAM introduces new modes and live events in NBA 2K25 including:

Triple Threat Park: NBA 2K25 features one of the biggest upgrades in MyTEAM history: Triple Threat Park on PlayStation®5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC. Triple Threat Park is a next gen recreation of the NBA 2K16 Rivet City Championship MyPARK. Accessible from within the MyTEAM menus or from The City, this acts as the new home for Triple Threat Online and Triple Threat Online: Co-Op multiplayer games, where players can meet new players face-to-face to befriend or battle. Like the original Rivet City rooftop, there are a total of nine courts - four dedicated to 2-player 3v3 games and five courts for 6-player 3v3 Co-Op games. For the first time in NBA 2K25, players can take the court in Park gameplay with NBA players while their MyPLAYERs watch from the sidelines.
Breakout: Breakout is the new single player experience in NBA 2K25 MyTEAM. As players try to break out of the game board and earn their reward, they will compete in quick Triple Threat 3v3, Clutch Time 5v5, or shortened 13-card Full Lineup games based on their own personal preference. As players explore each board, they'll play against a range of opponents, including current NBA teams, historic teams in Era-themed games, All-Time teams, and other theme teams composed of new collections released throughout the year. Once players reach the outer edge, they will face off against a final gatekeeper team. These gatekeepers are the final run-ending opponents that stand between them and the reward they selected.

Showdown: Showdown is a new win-based multiplayer mode in NBA 2K25 that draws inspiration from competitive modes from past MyTEAM years and is the evolution of Unlimited. Showdown is for the best players and offers the best rewards. Games are played with 13-card Full Lineups in 4-minute quarters. The core of this mode is a progression system across 15 tiers, where the primary goal is to win and get promoted. Win streaks earn extra progression up the ladder. Players who earn a few wins the week prior will be able to choose a reward group based on tier every Friday at 8 AM Pacific Time. After players get a target amount of Showdown wins each week, they will qualify for our new competitive mode, King of the Court.

King of the Court: King of the Court is where the best of the best come to compete each week. The exclusive event is held every Saturday from 10 AM to 2 PM PT, starting on September 14. To qualify, players must meet certain qualification thresholds in either the new Showdown or Triple Threat Park modes during the preceding week, or earn automatic qualification by rising up the MyTEAM REP tiers. After each King of the Court game, players will earn a Game Score based on their performance. If players lose 3 games, their time in that Saturday's King of the Court will be over. Final Game Score each Saturday will be ranked amongst all competitors to crown the ultimate No. 1 King of the Court.
