NBA 2K22 has today launched its December 1 update on all platforms, so here’s the full list of changes and fixes with this patch. Like a few patches we’ve done, today’s update is split between current-gen and next-gen platforms. As such, we’ll be making that differentiation in our patch notes. As for the update itself, it’s roughly what you’d expect. With season 3 currently approaching, the team is focused on ensuring things are smoothed out prior to that update. In case you’re curious, season 3 launches on Friday at 8AM PT. Without further adieu, here’s everything new with the December 1 update for NBA 2K22!
