📣 @everyone

In August, we promised to take action against cheating in NBA 2K27. That action starts today.

We have issued the first wave of permanent bans against accounts using cheats and scripts to gain an unfair advantage through shooting aids and other input manipulation, and enforcement will not stop here.

📣 @everyone

The team at Visual Concepts hopes everyone has been enjoying their NBA 2K27 experience! We’ve been playing and watching, and have made select gameplay fixes to better deliver on our overall vision for NBA 2K27.

SHOOTING

• Strengthened defensive contests. Well-contested and low-percentage attempts are now less effective, while wide-open looks received a slight boost to reward smart shots.

DUNKING

• Standing dunks now succeed more often, most noticeably against average and below-average interior defenders.
• The Rise Up badge now provides a more meaningful benefit at Gold tier and above.

STEALS AND BALL SECURITY

• Addressed an issue where lower-rated defenders (and players with depleted adrenaline) could get on-ball steals more consistently than elite defenders. Steal rating is now properly rewarded on contact with the ball.

GAME SPEED

• Fixed an issue and overall game speed is now increased and/or standardized to be consistent across all modes of play.
