Customers are delighted by NBA 2K21's impressive graphics and engaging gameplay, with many praising the storyline and the special edition packaging. Positive feedback also highlights the inclusion of a steelbook case and next-gen upgrade. However, some customers found the shooting mechanics challenging and the price point to be high.

    Bought this for my 12 year old son who is a huge Kobe fan. He was so surprised and overjoyed. He loves the game. Arrived right on time too.

    Love this game series! Not a fan of the new shot stick mechanics but overall great 2K game. Couldn't pass on the Kobe edition. RIP Kobe!

    Good basketball game. Story is cheesy, but you knew that right? Still fun to okay season or against friends in same room. Online play is filled with ball hogs and microtransactions everywhere. Takes about $50 to upgrade player quickly. Or play a full 82 game season (10 min quarters) and max your player out the long way. Kobe edition comes with 100k for each gen. 200k total. No Kobe specific modes or challenges, just gear for your myplayer.

    Having not played the 2K series in over 10 years, this one is pretty solid! Definitely glad I grab the Mamba collectors edition as well!

    I really enjoy the upgrade and new moves to this new addition. It is nice having Kobi on the cover but it wasn't worth the extra money.

    Good game. Wish there was a roster update that reflected the current playoffs (opt outs, etc). Would be really cool if there was a bubble arena.

    I don’t play it much but it’s been fun to play when I have free time. Still has the arcade feel that 2k games all have.

    Gameplay is great, only drawback is you can tell COVID made them hold back on some updates. Plus without the draft happening, no new rookies.

    Better now that they introduced the old way of shooting. Some oversights in reusing last releases banners “2019” as we usual. Good overall.

    The game is great, but Best Buy is trash with pre orders. Didn’t get my item right when the store opened. Don’t pre order from these fools.

    Like the new rosters. Not much has changed from last year. Shooting is a little harder. Bought the Kobe Edition so I can upgrade to PS5
