Minor NBA 2K22 Update Balances Badges and More

NBA 2K22 received a minor badge balancing update today. The 2K22 update comes on the heels of the latest patch 1.5, and slightly reduces the effectiveness of Mismatch Expert and Blinders. Additionally, 2K22 tunes the Unpluckable badge with increased effectiveness. Today’s update applies to current and new-gen and no patch download is required.

NBA 2K22 has seen several patches since it launched on September 10, known to some as “2K day.” Patch 1.5 improved stability for the title on the whole and fixed online issues spanning across City/Rec/Pro-Am/W online games. Moreover, NBA 2K22 update patch 1.4 went live on September 17 and fixed issues where some users could not progress in MyCareer storylines.

NBA 2K22 received an official score of nine out of ten by Sports Gamers Online’s Chief Editor, Mike Straw. According to Straw, NBA 2K is the most fun release in years and earns high gameplay marks highlighted by improved defensive logic and more intelligent defensive rotations by AI defenders.

NBA 2K22 Review Verdict 

“Despite the rough year 2K had to navigate, I’m impressed with how well made of a game NBA 2K22 is. The gameplay is the best it’s been in years, and the flagship mode MyCareer took big steps this year in ultimately realizing its vision. 

Playing NBA 2K22 honestly reminds me of when I first fell in love with the series with 2K1 and I hope throughout the year that feeling remains. Saying there’s something here for everyone is cliche, but this is the first time it’s ever been this true. There’s enough to do that, no matter the type of player you are, you’ll find hours of entertainment. 

When’s the last time you could truly say that about a sports game?”
