NBA 2K21 has been out on current-gen consoles for over a month, but it’s nearly time for it to shoot onto next-gen. NBA 2K21 releases next month for Xbox Series X/S and Playstation 5, but that isn’t stopping 2K from giving you a sneak peek of what to expect. The team released an NBA 2K21 gameplay trailer today, giving an exciting look at the next-gen gameplay you can expect. You can find that trailer below.
