Will NBA 2K24 Have a Demo?
At this time, 2K hasn’t officially denied or confirmed if NBA 2K24 will have a demo. The last demo NBA 2K had was in NBA 2K21, which let you play a quick match and test out the MyPLAYER Builder. Here are a few reasons why it could happen for 2K24:
- The last time NBA 2K had a demo (NBA 2K21), the late Kobe Bryant was one of the cover athletes. NBA 2K24’s Cover Athlete is Kobe Bryant again.
- Like in NBA 2K21, 2K may release a demo on “8/24” (August 24) as a tribute to Kobe. Bryant wore the jersey numbers “8” and “24” throughout his career.
- PlayStation Plus game trials are required for games priced $34 or higher
