2K Games and Saber Interactive have announced a special partnership because the former will be publishing NBA Playgrounds 2 when it comes out later this year on all major platforms.
As announced on Facebook, 2K Games is publishing NBA Playgrounds 2 and the game will be released sometime in Fall 2018. Comments from the two parties are posted below.
“The original NBA Playgrounds was a fantastic throwback to the glory days of arcade-action sports,” said Greg Thomas, President, Visual Concepts. “The new NBA 2K Playgrounds 2 will step up this energy and attitude big time – with a bit of added NBA 2K flair – giving fans of both franchises an exciting new way to game with friends around the world.”
The game will be released for the PC, PS4, Xbox One and Nintendo Switch. The franchise serves as a spiritual successor to the popular NBA Jam series.
