What people are saying
Updated nightlyNBA 2K27 is widely seen as a letdown, with a majority of reactions being negative. The core gameplay loop is divisive, and it's heavily criticized for poor performance and especially terrible value, often called out for aggressive microtransactions tied to VC. The graphics are decent, but that's overshadowed by technical issues on PC and a general sense that developer Visual Concepts is just repeating the same formula. The new DLSS 5 support is a rare bright spot for some PC players, and the MyNBA mode gets some praise, but it's not enough to save the overall experience.
