NBA 2K26 is coming soon, and if you’re thinking about pre-ordering, there are a few things you should know about the bonuses and different editions available. Whether you’re a fan of Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, Angel Reese, or Carmelo Anthony, each cover athlete has their edition with distinct perks.
Shai Gilgeous-Alexander recently had a great season, winning the NBA MVP, Finals MVP, and an NBA Championship with the Oklahoma City Thunder. Angel Reese is making waves in the WNBA, while Carmelo Anthony remains a Basketball Hall of Famer known for his scoring. Their editions each offer different content, so let’s break down what you get with each.
Pre-ordering any version grants 10,000 VC, the in-game virtual currency. If you pre-order digitally on the PlayStation Store, you will also receive two MyTeam Promo Packs and a MyPlayer Gamerplate. There’s also a loyalty discount: a 10% price cut on the Leave No Doubt Edition if you purchase it on the same platform where you bought NBA 2K25.
The Standard Edition costs $69.99 and includes the 10,000 VC pre-order bonus, but it lacks early access and extra rewards. The WNBA Edition is $79.99 and is available physically only in the U.S., offering the same pre-order bonus without early access.
The Superstar Edition costs $99.99 and includes 110,000 VC, up to seven days of early access, as well as additional MyCareer and MyTeam content. The top tier, the Leave No Doubt Edition, is $149.99 and includes 135,000 VC, the Season 1 Pro Pass, the Summer Pass (covering Seasons 7-9 Pro Passes), seven days of early access, and exclusive MyCareer and MyTeam extras like a Puffer Jacket and a Leave No Doubt Promo Pack.
Here’s what the MyCareer and MyTeam content looks like for the Superstar and Leave No Doubt Editions:
- 25x 6 Types of Skill Boosts
- 25x 3 Types of Gatorade Boosts
- 2-Hour 2XP Coin
- Shai Gilgeous-Alexander Cover Jersey
