Visual Concepts and 2K Games consistently updates its professional basketball simulator, NBA 2K25, with the latest rosters, jerseys, court floors, and more. Along with new content, several balance adjustments and bug fixes are implemented based on community feedback to hopefully create a stable experience.

The most exciting bit of the new NBA 2K25 update is that it ready the game for Season 6. For those unaware, each Season of the popular basketball game has a Season Pass that brings new content to its MyTeam and MyCareer modes. For MyTeam players, there are fairly decent cards available on the Season Pass track, especially for those that can reach level 40. For MyCareer players, much of the rewards are cosmetics. There is also virtual currency (VC) to earn which can be used to either buy more card packs in MyTeam or upgrade a created player in MyCareer. According to the NBA 2K25 patch notes, Season 6 begins Friday, April 4th, at 8 A.M. PT.
The majority of what the new NBA 2K25 update implements is technical improvements across the board. This includes performance improvements in the City, the Exchange menu in MyTeam, and MyNBA Online. Other UI fixes have been made specifically for the MyTeam mode.
There are a duo of likeness updates within the latest patch to help create a more authentic experience in NBA 2K25. Specifically, the Washington Mystics Shakira Austin received a general likeness update, and Los Angeles Clippers’ Patty Mills got a dynamic hair update.
