About this game
NBA 2K24 lets you take NBA and WNBA teams onto the court in Play Now. Dribble-combination controls and interior defense are part of its basketball systems. Mamba Moments gives the action a historical focus by recreating selected games from Kobe Bryant's career, turning particular performances into playable basketball scenarios. Play Now and Mamba Moments remain listed as offline modes. The game's current scope is narrower than its original online offering: server-dependent features have closed, and MyCAREER and MyTEAM are no longer available. Its remaining appeal therefore centres on playing matches and revisiting the Kobe scenarios rather than progressing through those retired modes.

Nintendo SwitchAI review
AI reviews are subjective assessments, not player ratings. See each review for its evidence and limitations.Published date:
A conditional fit for offline basketball and Kobe-focused scenarios, with major online modes retired.
Dribble combinations and interior defense could appeal to players who want to work on on-court decisions. Mamba Moments adds a specific historical focus, but the closed career and team-building modes substantially narrow the kinds of progression available.
Strengths
- Kobe's selected career games give the basketball action a recognisable historical purpose.
- Retained offline matches and Mamba Moments offer distinct reasons to return without online progression.
Weaknesses
- Players seeking MyCAREER or MyTEAM progression cannot pursue it in the retired modes.
Who it is for: Players interested in offline NBA or WNBA matches and playable recreations of Kobe Bryant's career.
Play notes: MyCAREER, MyTEAM and other server-dependent features are unavailable following the online service closure.
