To the delight of WNBA fans everywhere, gamers will also have the opportunity to expand the league by two franchises. With the benefit of full customization, you can either build a new team or bring a defunct franchise back from the dead. Maybe you’d want to build another Houston Comets dynasty.
Also as part of MyPLAYER mode, NBA 2K23 is adding Contact Challenges, where players are instructed by WNBA players, coaches and legends to complete specified objectives in order to earn player boosts.
WNBA content will be weaved into other aspects of NBA 2K23 as well. Users can collect jersey, logo and coach cards in MyTEAM, rewards that can be obtained only through The W.
