NBA 2K22 Gets New Update Before Season 6, Patch Notes Revealed

04/06/2022 04:03 pm EDT

Early this morning, 2K Games announced that Season 6 of NBA 2K22 would be starting at the end of this week on Friday, April 8th. Prior to Season 6's start, though, a new update for NBA 2K22 has now gone live. And while this update isn't yet available for everyone, it paves the way for what will be featured in the game's new season of content. 

As we have come to expect with NBA 2K22 updates in the past, 2K released a patch for both "new-gen" and "current-gen" versions of the game. Those playing on next-gen platforms are the ones who have received the most tweaks in this past, though, with 2K making alterations to MyCareer and MyNBA. In addition, it also pushed out a gameplay fix for a lingering bug associated with takeovers. 

It's important to note that today's new patch for NBA 2K22 isn't live across all platforms just yet. While those on PlayStation and Xbox can download it right now, Switch owners will have to wait until Thursday, April 7 to see the update arrive. In addition, PC players will be waiting until Friday morning for this update to drop. 

Regardless of where you might be playing NBA 2K22 for yourself, though, you can find the full list of new patch notes for the game attached down below.
