NBA Live 20 Delayed Until Late 2019 as Team Plans a Different Approach

[Smallville102001]

I wonder if we will get a few more small updates on 19 while they work on 20. Maybe they will release a update with rookies or something at least. I wonder if they should release a beta really soon and listen to feedback on it so that way they have the extra time to listen to feedback before 20 comes out now that 20 is comming out later then normal.

a new approach.* wonder if they will be taking the more casual/ arcade approach.*

Good. Get as far away from 2k as possible. Release it when the season starts when the hype for the NBA is in full force.


Excited to try this out with EA Access whenever it releases.

I agree. Thats what they should do. Release 20 late this year, continue to fix and add stuff/events through next summer, and have updated Free Agency rosters like they just did. All while fully focusing on next gen for launch

If EA releases an update with rookies on 19, you might as well kiss 20 goodbye. I wonder if different approach could mean EA dropping the NBA license all together and just focusing on the Live Run/street ball type modes? Most players don't play the NBA portion of the game anyway.

I don't mind waiting. If the game is solid, then it'll be worth it. It just changes up my sports gaming plan. I usually GameFly Madden and Live and buy 2k on Black Friday. So now Madden has to hold me down for a couple months

Couldnt get much more casual. They put nothing into Franchise Mode. It was all to the Arcade modes.
