Summer may have just arrived, however, fans of NBA 2K are already eagerly awaiting fall! With all the player changes expected to take place before the 2019-2020 season, the hype behind the upcoming release of NBA 2K20 is already building.
There will be three different versions of the popular NBA 2K game, and here is what we know so far.
Deluxe Edition
The NBA 2K20 Digital Deluxe Edition will feature new Lakers star, Anthony Davis! Yes, the Lakers are obviously making a run at an NBA title, and acquiring the former Pelicans star is a great first move. Teaming Davis with LeBron James and possibly another star or two has Lakers fans dreaming of the title years.

While NBA 2K20 will officially be released on September 6, 2019, pre-ordering the game will get you a lot more bang for your buck.
For example, if you pre-order the Deluxe Edition, you will receive the following perks that will not be available if you purchase the game after its Septemeber 6 release.
- 35,000 Virtual Currency
- 10,000 MyTEAM Points
- 10 MyCAREER Skill Boosts
- MyPLAYER Clothing Capsule
- 10 MyTEAM League packs (delivered one a week)
- 5 Heat Check packs (delivered one a week beginning at the start of the NBA season)
- 1 Sapphire MyTEAM Cover Athlete Card
Legend Edition
What better way to roll out the new NBA 2K20 Legend Edition than with a living legend? The recently retired Dwayne Wade will grace the Legend Edition cover this fall.
Wade, who looks like he could still play at a high-level today, has been the heart and soul of the Miami Heat since 2003. Now that he is on his way to other adventures, it doesn’t mean he can’t dominate the video game world!
