The highly anticipated NBA 2K25 Season 2 and Gravity Ball updates are scheduled to drop this Friday, October 18.

According to Visible Ideas President Greg Thomas, this recreation or mode originated as a passion project from the talented Lego 2K Drive team at VC South.
He described Gravity Ball as a thrilling fusion of American Gladiators, futuristic basketball, and paintball – “a chaotic free-for-all.”
