Q: Are there any plans to bring the next generation of NBA 2K titles to PC and Nintendo Switch in the future?
A: This is something the team is passionate about and will continue to investigate what is possible for the franchise in the future.
For now, the focus was on assuring NBA 2K23 was optimized for the new consoles (PlayStation®5, Xbox Series X|S), while also making sure the experience remains fresh and innovative for players on other platforms.

Madden PC is old gen as well ( the nextgen new passing mechanic looked neat, oh well) .... 2k is as bad as EA .... guess they have exclusive deals to sell more consoles.
Oh well, another pass for me. Hopefully it has a balanced gameplay and a few bugs worked out. 2k23 be an end of cycle gem like 2k14... or could be a complete copy/paste... low effort game.

They are shameless. Expect this exact copy and paste to be rolled out again this time next year.
A horrible company. They care about nothing except money. The rise of VC ruined any fun I once had with the game. No coincidence. They won't get another penny from me.
At this point I'm convinced it's purely out of spite because the modders make the game 100x more fun than the people they employ are ever able to.

That's not to say there isn't stuff in the Next/New Gen version that would be great to have on PC - MyNBA for example - but both games left me rather unimpressed on the whole. Both are full of legacy issues that mean they aren't much better than the PC/PS4/X1 version, if at all. Short term, it's not like the PC is missing out on some transcendent virtual basketball experience.
Long term however, the PC remaining a PS4/X1 port is concerning. Obviously the PS5/XSX version may well improve in several areas (microtransactions obviously not being one of them), and it'd be a shame to miss out on those much better games. More to the point though, there's an assumption that we'll have to wait for the PS4 and X1 to be phased out before the PS5/XSX version comes to PC. My admittedly more pessimistic concern is that once that happens, a PC release simply disappears along with support for the previous console generation.
It's the worst case scenario, but it's not unfeasible. The PC version has a smaller userbase compared to both PlayStation and Xbox versions, and is already basically the lowest priority (or at least on par with the Switch in that regard). Ditching it when the PS4/X1 releases cease, whether that's next year or perhaps the year after, is something that could happen. Getting a PS5/XSX port ahead of that time not only ensures that the PC is on track to have same version that's the top priority, but that it'll continue to receive the game, period.
That's my concern; not that the PC is going to have to wait, not that it's already missing out on some of the best NBA 2Ks ever made, but that it could be on track to be phased out along with the PS4 and X1.

From 2k14 up until 2k18 they had PS3 version, and stopped at 2k19, if the pattern is followed correctly (could be proven wrong because 2K has been inconsistent with patterns) its hould go from 2k21 to 2k25, so we would have to probably wait for 2k26 to get next gen on PC

Isn't it literally their job to prevent any hacking in their system by providing some kind of better software security tho? "Putting some sort of effort into stopping the hackfest that is PC" by avoiding to do any kind of effort at all instead. Lol
