Gameplay has faced criticism in recent years, with many users noting a decline due to the emphasis on online purchases that can undermine skill-based competition. While some aspects, like the presentation and specific features, are praised, overall gameplay is marred by server issues and the prevalence of microtransactions, leading to a less satisfying experience compared to previous versions.
- “The basketball gameplay is awesome.”
- “Gameplay has gone downhill the last few years as online purchases are highly promoted by 2K, which in a sense is cheating. It allows players to excel by spending money rather than relying on actual skill.”

The monetization in the game has been heavily criticized, with players noting that microtransactions are increasingly aggressive and costly, particularly in modes like MyTeam. Many feel that the pay-to-play model has worsened with each iteration since 2K16, making it difficult for players to compete without spending significant amounts of money.
- “The microtransactions are as bad as ever... getting players in MyTeam costs an arm and a leg.”
- “Each iteration since 2K16 has gotten worse in terms of microtransactions and its pay-to-play nature.”
