I’m honored my journey can be part of this special time in 2K history and I’m excited for fans to see it.”
The cover features a variety of words and phrases often associated with the best basketball player in the world, including:
This marks the second time James has appeared on the cover of NBA 2K. He last landed on the cover of NBA 2K14 as a member of the Miami Heat.
The NBA 2K19 standard edition cover athlete will be revealed at a later date. The standard edition launches September 11. Both versions will launch on PS4, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, and PC. For those who want to get in the game early, NBA 2K19: The Prelude can be downloaded on August 31 on Xbox One and PS4. The Prelude lets players start their career mode and transfer progress to the full game.
