When is NBA 2K22 scheduled to release?
The game is scheduled to release on September 10th, 2021. The latest leaks and rumors suggest that there is no scheduled demo this year. According to many e-sports reporters, the NBA 2K team confirmed that there won't be a demo release in a brief Q&A session. When asked whether there will be a demo, NBA 2K reportedly responded by saying,
"No. Although the demo version is a regular content released by NBA 2K, we decided not to release demo version this year, but instead focus on creating fully-functional games of this generation and previous generation."
