On the court itself, NBA 2K23 has seen improvements in every department. The shot meter is easier to read — it can be tinkered with if you don't 100% gel with its default set-up — and matches have a slower pace that gives the action a more open and purposeful flow. You have more room to manoeuvre, pass the ball around and have time to build up taking a shot at the net. There are also new dunk controls that allow for more flexibility in how you show off on big shots, enhanced animations and physics, and improved AI that makes for sharper opponents in single-player modes.

Choose on NBA or WNBA teams in PLAY NOW and experience true-to-life gameplay. NBA 2K24 is less a continuation of what made the series good on Switch and more a downgrade of what has come before it. Even with how smoothly this one plays on the console, with some clean animations and a sprinkling of improvements to MyTeam being the real MVPs, all of this is overshadowed by just how watered-down this year's entry feels. With none of the new game modes making the jump to Switch apart from the disappointing Mamba Moments, a severely lessened MyCareer and a model that continues to be plagued by microtransactions and long load times, the 2K franchise on Switch has never needed more of a boost. If you are after a basketball game on the go, last year's offering is a much better option.

THIS IS GAME - Compete as your favorite NBA and WNBA teams and stars, and experience the pinnacle of true-to-life gameplay. With best-in-class visual presentation, improved player AI, up-to-date rosters and historic teams, the game has never felt more real and complete than it does in NBA 2K. Feel the energy of the crowd, the intensity of the competition, and the endless entertainment of one of the most immersive sports products in gaming today.
