After NBA 2K11, NBA 2K12 and NBA 2K16 Special Edition, Michael Jordan will appear on the cover of NBA 2K23 Michael Jordan Edition and the ultra-premium NBA 2K23 Championship Edition.
The fourth appearance of Michael Jordan, basketball’s greatest star (14-time NBA All-Star, six-time NBA champion, five-time Kia NBA MVP, and inductee into the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame), wearing the NBA 2K jacket, re-introduces the Jordan Challenge, mode, in which players can relive iconic moments from the famous GM’s career. The ten original NBA 2K11 challenges have been completely recreated from the ground up and are complemented by five new challenges. They capitalize on over a decade of technological advancement and offer an entirely new way of progressing within the reach of what is known as His Airiness.

“With 23 becoming the most recognizable number in sports, it made sense for NBA 2K23 to offer the Michael Jordan Edition,” said Alfie Brody, vice president of global NBA 2K licensing marketing strategy at 2K Sports. “Also, we’re excited to announce the all-new premium NBA 2K23 Championship Edition because no other player epitomizes the word ‘Champion’ like Jordan does. This limited edition will allow players to keep track of what’s happening on the pitch throughout the season with a 12-month subscription to NBA League Pass. We look forward to celebrating the game with the community when it releases on September 9th.”
