LeBron James has been confirmed as the lone cover star for NBA 2K14. The four-time MVP, who recently carried the Miami Heat past Indiana into the Playoff Finals, will lead the 2K series into the next-generation on both PS4 and Xbox One. The game will also release on Xbox 360 and PS3 on 1 October in the US, 4 October in the UK and Europe.
Pre-ordering the game on current-gen (2K are yet to confirm either a release date or pre-order incentives for next-gen) will net you the King James Bonus Pack, which includes 10,000 bonus points for Virtual Career, automatic LeBron unlock in Blacktop mode, and new LeBron signature skills for MyPlayer mode.
On top of that, the Bonus Pack will also bring extra content for a new Path to Greatness mode. More details on this to follow soon.
Speaking about the announcement, LeBron says “My friends, family, and fans all know how much I love NBA 2K. I remember, as a kid, getting so excited for the game to come out and see who was on the cover and it's amazing to be a part of this great tradition.”
With nine All-Star appearances, six All-NBA first team selections, four MVP awards and two Olympic Gold Medals King James is pretty much the perfect choice as cover star – especially as 2K rival EA is looking to release its first NBA Live game since 2010 exclusively on next-gen systems this winter.
