The NBA 2K17 heat keeps on rising and the developers don't leave their fans empty handed.

2K put out another video concerning the new release and it might just be the most exciting off all. Titled as THE PRELUDE, 2K announces that from September 9, a free-for-all version will become available for PSN & XBL users. Fan favorite MyCareer mode can be accessed early and users will have the chance to walk through the first steps of their MyPlayer.

This offers a valuable head start and offers some old features with newly added impacts. Now, all physical attributes of the created player will affect his skill attributes as well. This was something that the community has been asking.

Users will be prompted to choose “player position” and “play-style” as well, and will then step into their creations' shoes in his journey to become an NBA player. Everything starts from college and slowly builds towards a promising career.

The last few seconds of the video even has a special surprise call. See it below to find out more.

Experienced MyCareer players know that an early start gives a huge advantage, so this is big news for everyone interested. It definitely helps building the hype for the upcoming release date.
