- 23h median play time
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.

Critic Reviews
NBA 2K22 Review – Heat Check
NBA 2K22 makes some appreciated improvements to on-the-court gameplay and tries some refreshing, if not entirely successful innovations in MyCareer that make this year’s version feel like a bit more than just a roster update.
70%NBA 2K22 Switch Review
Too ambitious, too buggy, and literally unplayable in certain modes, portable 2K22 isn't even G-League ready.
58%NBA 2K22 Review
NBA 2K22 has the best offensive flow in years, matched by improvements to defense. Still, technical problems persist and microtransactions are hard to ignore in some modes.
