NBA 2K19 is a basketball simulation video game developed by Visual Concepts and published by 2K Sports. It is the 20th installment in the NBA 2K franchise and the successor to NBA 2K18. It was released on September 7 2018 for Microsoft Windows, Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, iOS, and Android. Giannis Antetokounmpo of the Milwaukee Bucks is the cover athlete for the standard edition, while LeBron James of the Los Angeles Lakers is the cover athlete for the 20th Anniversary Edition.[1] Antetokounmpo and James will grace the cover in North America, while current NBA Rookie of the Year Award winner Ben Simmons of the Philadelphia 76ers, an Australian native, will grace the cover in Australia and New Zealand.

NBA 2K19, like the previous games in the series, is based on the sport of basketball; more specifically, it simulates the experience of the National Basketball Association (NBA).

This year's career mode storyline also featured authentic CBA commentary in Mandarin Chinese.

Soundtrack

NBA 2K19's soundtrack was curated by rapper Travis Scott, who has three songs featured in the game.[2]

NBA 2K19 was officially announced on June 5, 2018 and will be released on September 11, 2018; players who pre-ordered the 20th Anniversary Edition of the game received it on September 7, 2018. It will be the first game in the series since NBA 2K6 (Xbox 360) and NBA 2K7 (PlayStation 3) to not be released for either platform.[1] It will be released for Microsoft Windows, Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, iOS, and Android. Giannis Antetokounmpo of the Milwaukee Bucks will be the cover athlete for the standard edition version of the game,[3] while LeBron James of the Los Angeles Lakers will be the cover athlete for the 20th Anniversary Edition, which will include various physical and digital extras.[4] James was previously the cover athlete of NBA 2K14 for the Standard Edition.
