NBA 2K21 Update Today (April 8): Patch Notes and latest changes to PS4 and Xbox

As for the download size, you're looking at a not-insignificant 17.5GB patch on PlayStation 4 and around 30GB on Xbox One.

As far as we can tell, though, the update is solely for last-gen platforms as NBA 2K is a separate product on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series S/X.

Some users have reported a small, sub-1GB patch on PC, too.

In any case, you'd best get to downloading asap – we'll update this page as soon as we have proper notes.

Wondering whether NBA 2K21 on next-gen is worth the upgrade? We've got you covered.

In our review, we said:

"NBA 2K21 on next-gen consoles is immeasurably better than its current-gen counterpart. Offering improved visuals is one thing, but when the gameplay is such a step up as well, it's hard to go back."

"If 2K could rein in its microtransactions, the game would be an all-time hall of famer."
