Game developer GAMEVIL today unveiled a new mobile game called NBA NOW, just in time for the upcoming NBA season.

NBA NOW

GAMEVIL has partnered with the NBA to bring a new mobile game to basketball fans. The game will challenge players to step into the shoes of a GM and build a team that can win the NBA Championship. NBA NOW will sport an “intuitive vertical-screen one-touch gameplay system with simplistic controls that aims to appeal to a broader audience on mobile,” and will also feature real NBA players, team uniforms and courts. Player ratings will also be updated throughout the season.

NBA NOW is the latest sports-related mobile game from GAMEVIL, as they have already a successful game in MLB Perfect Innings. And GAMEVIL, in a press release regarding NBA NOW, touted that this new game will be their next step in the world of sport-related video games. Kyu Lee, GAMEVIL COM2US USA’s President, wrote, “Our partnership with the NBA allows GAMEVIL to take another huge leap into the mobile sports gaming realm.” On the game itself, Lee wrote, “With simple controls and powerful tools, gamers and NBA fans can build and manage nearly every aspect of their team to set them up for success, and can even take control on the court.”
