With the 2023 edition of its NBA simulation, developer and publisher 2K has a lot to make up for. The press has already attested NBA 2K20 Casino and Pay2Win elements, while many Steam players also accuse the current 2022 variant of being an exact copy of the predecessor NBA 2K21. Furthermore, the lack of a next-gen upgrade is criticized, which the users of the Valve platform around the release period punished with the overall rating “Mostly negative”. As of July 2022, NBA 2K22 does have that “Balanced” rating achieved, but the more recent reviews often repeat shortcomings from the year of publication. In addition, the players want an improved server infrastructure and improved matchmaking.
