Lebron James has been crowned king of NBA 2K14’s cover

nba2k14-boxLebron James and his Miami Heat are currently battling Tim Duncan and the San Antonio Spurs in the NBA Finals. The Heat lost the first game, but King James will surely come back in game two.

If not, at least he can take solace in his selection as the cover athlete for NBA 2K14.

Believe it or not, this is the first time Lebron James has appeared on the cover of a video game. He will also lend his likeness to the King James Bonus Pack, a special pre-order package for players who pre-order the PS3 and Xbox 360 version of the game. The King James Bonus Pack will include:

  • 10,000 Virtual Currency to get a jump start on the competition;
  • Extra content for the new Path to Greatness mode;
  • LeBron James unlocked in Blacktop Mode;
  • The all-new LeBron James Signature Skill available for your MyPlayer.

“My friends, family, and fans all know how much I love NBA 2K. I remember, as a kid, getting so excited for the game to come out and see who was on the cover and it’s amazing to be a part of this great tradition,” said James.

NBA 2K14 will be available for the PC, PS3 and Xbox 360 on October 1 (sorry Wii U owners). The game will also be available for the PS4 and Xbox One during each system’s launch.

Take Two announces release dates for WWE 2K14 and NBA 2K14

Posted on May 14, 2013 by John Scalzo

wwe2kTake Two Interactive had a very good year. The publisher’s 2013 fiscal year ended in March, so yesterday they presented their financial fortunes to shareholders and the press. Take Two also wants you to know that they’ve pinned down release dates for WWE 2K14 and NBA 2K14.

According to the press release, the first WWE game published by 2K Games will be released on October 29 for the PS3 and Xbox 360. As of today, a version of the game for the Wii U or an appearance on next-generation systems from Sony or Microsoft looks to be out of the question.

The future of NBA 2K14 is even more mysterious. We know it’ll be available on October 1, but Take Two has listed the supported platforms as “TBA.” Typically, the NBA 2K series is released for every conceivable platform, so the “TBA” is probably just a placeholder for “PC, PS3, PS4, Wii U, Xbox 360, and the (currently unnamed) Xbox 720/Durango.”

But I guess we’ll find out for sure in October.
