The wait is over, the NBA 2K21 next-gen gameplay trailer has finally dropped. It looks leaps and bounds ahead of the current-gen game in terms of graphics and the sheer detailing of the environment.

The current-gen game is pretty much the same as NBA 2K20 and fans were disheartened by the gameplay. But after having a look at the gameplay for the next-gen, the wait was worthwhile.
The game looks more real than ever, and there are genuine upgrades that can be seen in this trailer. However, as the NBA 2K21 next-gen is a launch title, gamers won’t be able to get a hand on the game until 12th November. It will be launched along with the much-awaited next-gen consoles by Sony and Microsoft.
This extensive trailer flaunts terrific details of Golden State Warriors’ Stephen Curry and Klay Thompson. The two stars were the highlight of this gameplay trailer for PS5. Moreover, the crowd reactions look better and they actually seem indulged in the game.
Here is a side-by-side image for the wide gap between the NBA 2K20 and NBA 2K21.
Along with these lifelike graphics, the court lighting was beautiful, something we haven’t seen in the previous editions. Visual Concepts (developers of NBA 2K21) have done a great job with the games and with the launch date nearing, fans will get more updates with each passing day.

As the reactions suggest, the gameplay looks terrific in every way. This is just the tip of the iceberg, in the coming week, 2K will release more details about each mode in the game. Reportedly, the next-gen game will get rid of the neighborhood.
However, this is all but speculation right now apart from one thing, the NBA 2K21 next-gen will be epic!
