NBA and WNBA Players Take the Court Together for the First Time in NBA® 2K26 MyTEAM

Today, 2K announced the new features and improvements coming to MyTEAM in NBA® 2K26, including the addition of WNBA Player Cards for the first time in franchise history. In this milestone addition, players will be able to collect and play with current and historic WNBA players and pair them with their favorite NBA superstars on the same team. Additional updates coming to MyTEAM include multiple new game modes, new card types, a beloved location with a new spin, and so much more. 

“MyTEAM is where competition meets a basketball fan’s wildest imagination,” said Erick Boenisch, VP of NBA Development at Visual Concepts. “By integrating the WNBA into one of our most popular modes, we’re not only giving players the opportunity to customize their all-time dream rosters but shining a spotlight on some of the game’s most iconic hoopers. We’re looking forward to giving our players a new and deeper way to engage with the WNBA. But there is so much more coming to MyTEAM this year - from All-Star Team-Up to new weekly cash prizes in King of the Court, there have never been more ways to compete with friends and win big.”  

More MyTEAM updates include:  

• The WNBA Joins MyTEAM: A very first for NBA 2K, WNBA Player Cards are fully integrated into all MyTEAM modes and features. With the introduction of WNBA athletes, players can mix and match stars from both leagues - unlocking more roster possibilities than ever before. Pair Paige Bueckers with Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, throw a lob from Sheryl Swoopes to Shaquille O'Neal, or run a pick-and-roll with Angel Reese and Carmelo Anthony. Attributes and Badges function identically for all WNBA and NBA Player Cards ensuring a balanced, consistent gameplay experience no matter who is on the court. To complete the expansion, a dedicated WNBA Domination tier, all WNBA uniforms, and the entirety of the league's set of court floors (featuring the NBA three-point line) have been added to MyTEAM. Further underscoring the magnitude of NBA and WNBA players competing side-by-side, brand new commentary has been recorded with the iconic voices of Kevin Harlan, Greg Anthony, and Stan Van Gundy. 

• All-New Game Changer Cards: Players have the power to cater their MyTEAM experience to their liking whenever they want with a brand new type of consumable card. The Game Changer Card features special power-ups including activating a REP or MyTEAM Points multiplier for the next game; recovering a win streak in Showdown after a loss; reducing the difficulty or target score differential in Domination; automatically-evolving an Evolution card—and dozens more. 

• Triple Threat Park at Night: NBA 2K15’s Sunset Beach returns in NBA 2K26 for Gen 9 with a refreshed look and feel that comes to life at night with neon lights that complement the tropical environment. Triple Threat Park will feature four head-to-head 3v3 courts and three 3v3 courts for 6-player co-op games. For the first time in MyTEAM, 2v2 games will be available on two 2v2 half-courts. Win-streak rewards and seasonal wins return, but there will also be incentives for ending a team’s winning streak with daily Streak Buster Rewards. 

• King of The Court, Presented By AT&T*: NBA 2K26 is raising the competition in King of the Court with all-new prizes. Every weekend from September 12, 2025 through August 2, 2026, PlayStation®5 and Xbox Series X|S players can compete to be the number one finisher and win the $10,000 USD grand prize. 

• Breakout: Gauntlet: Introducing another new game mode, Breakout: Gauntlet, players can put their entire collection to the ultimate test by completing games of increasing difficulty. Gauntlet features a new straight-line game board with an epic twist, as players are only able to use each of their Player Cards once per run. The longer the run continues, the better the rewards will be with a regularly updated final reward at the end of the path. 

• All-Star Team-Up: In All-Star Team-Up for Gen 9, players can compete in 10-player, 5v5 co-op games with their friends, or random players. In these fast-paced games featuring 6-minute halves, all five teammates will work together and each control their favorite NBA or WNBA Player Cards. Teams who stick together and win 5 games in a session will earn a bonus reward together on top of their Season Ladder progress. 

• MyTEAM Arena: Gen 9 players can bask in all of their achievements in the new MyTEAM Arena.The new starting location features amazing views and displays banners, trophies, and murals from all of the accomplishments a player has achieved on the court and across the mode. 
• Additional Updates: NBA 2K26 will feature a slew of additional updates and additions to MyTEAM including, Single Player Salary Cap, Coach development, Victory Card exchanges, more MyTEAM REP rewards with a G.O.A.T.
