N B A 21: News, Leaks and Rumors

Let us start by the news that have been reveal during the last few days. Bad news for the players, the playlists for the current gen of N B A 21 will be different from the next-gen’s. The current generation version of the game will launch with 52 tracks while the next-gen will launch with a staggering 202 tracks. It will set an unprecedented record for the number of music tracks in a sport video game. Knowing that  games intends to add new tracks after the game launch, that record will not be broken in the foreseeable future.

The original soundtrack of the current gen version of the game is already available on Spotify. The soundtrack features two songs from Dame D.O.L.L.A. That name may not ring a bell but it is the stage name of Damian Lillard. As a reminder, he is the star player of the current gen version of the game. The playlist also features artists like Black$tar, Rick Ross, The Weekend, Travis Scott, Pop Smoke, Cardi B, ASAP Ferg. Music will be at the core of the game as stated by Alfie Brody, the vice-president of global marketing for N B A 21.

On another note, there have been leaks concerning the career mode of the game.  game has by no means confirmed those info. They must therefore be taken with a grain of salt. They come from an alleged Visual concepts (the developers for N B A 21) member of staff. According to his post published on 4chan, the current gen versions of the game will be very similar to N B A 20. There will also be references to Kobe Bryant in game. His statues will be present in the neighborhood mode and the Jordan Rec Center will become the Mamba Rec Center.

The post also teases more personalization options for the players’ avatar in the MyPlayer mode. The players will be able to create a unique avatar by using pie charts to balance different statistics. There will also be more accessories and cosmetics than what was available in the past. More hairstyles, tattoos, clothes and even masks. Finally, there will be more than one neighborhood in the game. As stated before those are only rumors, most of the teased feature would be a great addition to the game.

However, we will have to wait official statements from  games to have information that is more reliable. You can find N B A 21 MyTeam coins at the best prices on MTStacks to build the ultimate team.
