The next NBA simulation title from EA Sports (title unknown as of March 2024) is scheduled for release in Fall of 2012. It will be the seventeenth game in EA's basketball franchise formerly known as NBA Live and the first to be released since 2009, following the cancellation of NBA Elite 11 in 2010. It will also be the first game developed by EA Tiburon, with all previous NBA Live/Elite titles being developed by EA Canada.

Development

EA Tiburon, perhaps best known for developing the EA's series of NFL games, will be taking over development of the next NBA sim title. On April 5th 2011, it was announced that the game would be coming out in the Fall of 2012, confirming that EA Sports will not release a sim NBA game for the second year in a row following NBA Elite 11's cancellation. EA Sports' lone basketball release in 2011 will be NBA Jam: On Fire Edition, a sequel to their reboot of the NBA Jam series.

Details of the game remain largely unknown as of March 2024 but presumably the game will feature ESPN licensing as per EA Sports' fifteen year agreement with the network, Dynamic DNA updates courtesy of their partnership with Synergy Sports and staples of the series such as Dynasty Mode and right analog controls.

Title

Posts by members of the development team originally made reference to NBA Elite 12, suggesting that the NBA Elite brand would continue to be used rather than the series adopting another new name or returning to the NBA Live brand. However, in the announcement posted on April 5th 2011, EA Sports President Peter Moore simply referred to the game as the "next NBA simulation title", suggesting that the NBA Elite name has been dropped and leaving the title unconfirmed as of March 2024.

PC Version

Once again, the NLSC is putting together a PC Petition in the hopes of demonstrating the community's support and enthusiasm for basketball games on the PC. As of March 2024, signatures are still being collected.
