As part of the weekend's revelations regarding the upcoming Nintendo Switch game console, details on the NBA 2K18 are non-existent but we're assured that the tradition of "unrivaled realism and true NBA gameplay" will be continued.
NBA 2K18 Is Coming To Nintendo Switch This September
In a posted announcement by the UK twitter account of publisher 2K, NBA 2K18 has been confirmed to be releasing this September 2017. According to GamerPros, the tweet said that 2K are excited to release the next entry to their popular Basketball game franchise onto the Nintendo Switch, which is the NBA 2K18.
If this big event happens, this will be the first NBA game to release onto a Nintendo system since the NBA 2K13 and will be launching at the same time as the PlayStation and Xbox variants. Though the most anticipated Nintendo Switch console has been slated for September 2017, there hasn't been official confirmation and approval of other console ports or their release dates as of yet, as per TrueAchievements.
The confirmation of the NBA 2K18 adds to the Nintendo Switch’s growing roster of games. It is considered an addition it sorely needs if it wants to push itself back into the mainstream market. First, it was showcased in the first look of the trailer last year, NBA 2K18 game is clearly a title that Nintendo wants to show off on their new console, which is the Switch.
