NBA 2K23 Editions And Cover Stars Revealed

2K has announced NBA 2K23, this year’s entry to its long-running annual basketball game. Alongside that is the reveal of multiple cover stars for its multiple editions.

Michael Jordan, one of the famous and most successful basketball players in the NBA and synonymous with the jersey number 23, appears on the cover of NBA2K23 for two editions: the NBA 2K23 Michael Jordan Edition and the-new-for-this-year, ultra-premium NBA 2K23 Championship Edition.

For the Standard and Digital Deluxe Edition (the one with the next-gen update) features Devin Booker. The Phoneix Suns’ shooting guard is a three-time NBA All-Star.

Interestingly, 2K is also putting the athletes of the WNBA in its own special edition, so special that it’s only sold at GameStop in the US and Canada. The WNBA Edition features Phoenix Mercury’s two-time Kia WNBA Finals MVP, three-time WNBA Champion, WNBA all-time leading scorer, and five-time Olympic gold medalist, Diana Taurasi, along with Seattle Storm’s four-time WNBA Champion, thirteen-time WNBA All-Star, WNBA all-time assists leader, and five-time Olympic gold medalist, Sue Bird.

Here’s a breakdown of all the different NBA 2K23 editions and what it includes. Since the WNBA Edition isn’t coming to Southeast Asia, we’ll be skipping that one.
