2K confirmed NBA 2K25 will launch in early September, a yearly tradition for the franchise, and feature one of the game’s biggest stars on the cover: Jayson Tatum. Tatum, though, won’t be the only featured athlete.

With the NBA Summer League in full swing, many of the game’s top rookies are getting their first taste of pro basketball before the fall. And speaking of fall, NBA 2K25 is officially on the menu for the season.

2K and Visual Concepts announced on July 10 the first details regarding NBA 2K25, including an update on the future of the game for PC and what’s ahead for MyTeam, MyCareer, and MyNBA.

And, the cover of the standard edition will feature a star who got his first championship this past June.

“It’s an honor to be named a cover athlete for NBA 2K25…even after coming off an NBAChampionship, it’s humbling to see this come to life,” Tatum told 2K regarding the honor of being on the 2K25 cover.
