NBA 2K21 next-gen will soon hit the stores, and it is expected to bring ground-breaking gameplay. However, as of now, the current-gen is the only option for 2K enthusiasts.
However, with the next-gen game in the works, NBA 2K is messing up the current-gen game. They recently rolled out an update where NBA 2K TV featured unskippable ads. Unsurprisingly, they received a lot of backlash for this update.
Ultimately, 2K had to roll back this update, followed by a token of apology from NBA 2K’s official Twitter account.

“As many are aware, in recent years ads have been integrated into 2KTV segments. Yesterday’s 2KTV ad placement impacted our players’ experience in a way we didn’t intend, as these ads are not meant to run as part of the pre-game introduction.
“This will be fixed in future episodes. Thanks for your continued feedback.”

With this message, it will bury the rumors that unskippable ads were part of the pre-game introduction. If that feature were to be included in the next-gen game, it would have hampered their reputation.
Luckily, this feature will be fixed soon, and players can go back to enjoying the game.
What do we know about the NBA 2K21 next-gen so far?
As revealed earlier by Ronnie 2K, the next-gen game will be a launch title. Meaning the game servers needs to be at 100% before it can be revealed to the general audience.
