There was no doubt that it was popular though, and so it was expanded upon starting in NBA 2K15. It was still very much a prototype of the experience that’s now on offer an offshoot of M圜AREER, something fun to dabble with rather than a deep mode in its own right. 100 MyPLAYERs could gather on a server and play streetball, much the same as we can in today’s Playground, though the stakes were lower. There was an urban aesthetic, but no open world to explore and interact with. When The Playground – then called The Park – debuted in the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One versions of NBA 2K14, it was far more basic than The Neighborhood we now see in M圜AREER. What was it, and why was it so popular? Let’s take a look back…way back…

It’s not uncommon to see Playground gamers asking for the return of MyPARK affiliations in response to 2K’s Tweets, though as of NBA 2K20, it’s yet to make a return. One aspect that was left behind in the MyPARK era is affiliations. From its introduction as The Park in NBA 2K14 to its rebranding as MyPARK and subsequently The Playground, the mode has gone from an online offshoot of NBA 2K’s career mode to its own fully fleshed out and immersive experience.Īs much focus as it receives and as popular as it is, however, not all Playground gamers are completely satisfied with its evolution. More to the point, it has become one of the most popular modes in the game, and through the introduction of The Neighborhood, a major part of the main M圜AREER hub. The Playground has never been my main mode of choice – Pro-Am is more my speed when it comes to NBA 2K online – but I’ve had some fun with it over the years. This week, I’m taking a look back at the affiliations in MyPARK. You’ll also find old NLSC editorials re-published with added commentary, and other flashback content.
