NBA 2k19 was released on multiple consoles including the Xbox One on 7 September, 2018. Just like its predecessors, NBA 2k19 features a rich career mode with a diverse squad across the NBA. The game also receives periodic updates when the game's real life counterparts improve their sporting game.

The Minnesota Timberwolves have received a boost in stats with players such as Derrick Rose. Fan favourites and strong NBA players such as James Harden, Joel Embiid, Zach LaVine have also small updates which changes the dynamic of their performance in-game.

The My Career mode follows the story of a customized character whose name is always A.I, who after being unable to get into the NBA Draft, heads to China to improve his game. There is also a new Takeover feature where a player can customize their MyPlayer card and MyTeam which will allow them to participate in online events, competitions and multiplayer.
